League 1 - Bristol Rovers vs Ipswich Town Preview & Matchday Thread

[Dazzz67]

Not foggy in Bristol, I left there around 3.30 and clear as a bell, lovely day. May get some later tonight but doubt it.

Have a safe trip all and hopefully the match will be worth the trip.

I forsee a win for us, know the City boys would love that.

Here we go then fellas (and girls) .., fingers crossed an all that ..

[Bluemike]

We sign 5 new players to strengthen the side and not one of them starting. Four changes for us again tonite.

[hallamblue]

Bright start but omg we are so powder puff in front of goal again .

[AzzurroMark]

Wednesday and Barnsley both already 1-0 up in their games!

Have to save them for Saturday Mike! Tough game at home to bottom of the league...

[Charnwood]

Blimey our finishing is crap. We should be two up inside 4 minutes. Hope these misses don’t prove costly.

[AzzurroMark]

Wednesday and Barnsley both already 1-0 up in their games!

Bolton also winning already

The current table isn't nice viewing!!!
Come on Town.

[Charnwood]

The first goal is crucial tonight, if Rovers score expect the bus to get parked and we’re not very good at getting past buses.

Well we’ve lost the initiative now I think . That’s the difference between us and the other contenders isn’t it. They can score , we can’t .

I’ll. put money on we concede from a corner or a free kick .

Yea, Bolton don’t have our problem scoring, they’ve had 3 shots 2 on target and 1 goal, we’ve had ; shots 2 on target and No goal.

As I said on Saturday we need twice as many shots and shots on targets as others.

[mendipblue]

We should be leading. Wow same old problem.

[hallamblue]

Davis crosses from the wrong angle . He needs to get right to the by line snd pull it back . It’s going away from keeper snd we can’t be offside from it. It s just basic wing play tbh ! Why don’t we do it ?? I’m

[Bluemike]

Davis has had 3 glorious chances to cross to an unmarked Town player and f*cked it every time.

[Denny61]

All around us leading..they have no problem dealing with the lesser teams..we can't score against them....

[Charnwood]

Bolton 2 up now and Plymouth leading at Oxford.

[AzzurroMark]

Currently nearer 7th place (7 points) than we are an automatic place (8).
Early days but need to score.


Worse still when Wycombe have a game in hand to further close that gap and Wednesday could use their game to increase their lead.

[Bluemike]

And Humphreys looks out of his depth again

[Charnwood]

I bet none of the other leading teams have had 5 shots and three on target. Our finishing is shocking.

[Bluemike]

Rovers are absolute dross, if we don't win this.....

[Ricco]

On the plus side, no yellow cards yet. Keep the positivity flowing!

[AzzurroMark]

On the plus side, no yellow cards yet. Keep the positivity flowing!

Another positive........I'm not watching it.

[hallamblue]

We’re far too slow getting the ball forward - again !!

[Charnwood]

Bolton 3-0 up now !

[AzzurroMark]

Bolton 2 up now

3 up now. So much for goal difference!!

Usually so positive but why do I feel so disheartened with the football currently?

[Charnwood]

Bristol Rovers commentary just said the way Ipswich want to play at walking pace really suits the way we’re set up tonight.

[Charnwood]

Bolton 2 up now

3 up now. So much for goal difference!!

… 3 up in 28 minutes. That’s 8 goals so far in their last 2 games and they’ve still got another hour to play.

[AzzurroMark]

All we are saying, is give us a goal!

[Bluemike]

There's no drive or creativity from our Midfield at all, where the f*ck is Burns tonite, Harness is pointless and Aluko is pretty but creates zilch.

[Charnwood]

Bolton scored 3 from 8 shots, and we’ve had 7 !
