The 2-1 defeat away at Brighton first game of the season a few years ago. ahhh - lewis dunk - take a bow, you twȧt !not sure who's the biggest ȧrsehole - him or ashley vickers....i see dunk managed twenty odd games for brighton this season, let's hope that costa or benteke dance round him and make him look a cretin on live tv next year, and then smash his jaw or eye socket with an elbow for good measure...
2. The 2-1 defeat away at Brighton first game of the season a few years ago.
Why do so many people misremember that Brighton game as Sharp and Mason getting injured? It was Sharp and James Hayter, Mason was crocked in our first round League Cup tie at the Keepmoat a few days later.
Did you see our back four that day?
Dumbuya turned out to be cack.
There have been many in almost 60 years of following Rovers.Going onto the pitch after the Colchester game not knowing if we would have a club the next season. That has to be the worst feeling ever.

Heartbreaking defeat and lost our two best players through injury. I really think that if we won that game and Sharp and Mason stayed fit that season would have been a whole lot different. We were about to build the team around Mason, who ended the previous season looking a class act.

I was at that first match at the San Siro too Philsky. A nasty, damp day. But that wasn't my worst experience tbh. I was a bit tempted to say away at Macclesfield Town as that was the first match of that awful relegation season. My Dad and I went together. It was obvious to the pair of us that that side was going to have a hard, hard season. Poor old Darren Brookes at centre half. He tried and tried and tried - but he was never going to be a league footballer. I've never forgiven Firestarter and that Gob on a Stick sidekick of his for persuading that poor lad to give up his job to play for the Rovers. But the worst has to be away at Cardiff that very same season. I went with a Cardiff mate. Sometime in the second half he turned to me and said words to the effect of 'If I didn't know better I'd say half your team are trying to score at the wrong end'. He was hardly wrong. We lost 7-1: the gifts and misplaced passes from some of the Rovers that day warranted an investigation by the FL as far as I was concerned. I am still convinced, to this day, that there was soemthing very, very odd indeed about that coterie of players from south Manchester that ended up at BV. Which one was it turned up driving a Porsche? Lots of stories about drugs and money laundering floating about back then...BobG
