Disappointing so far, gifting them possession and not really with it. Molyneux particularly culpable. Hope we improve because they look terrible and are there for the taking.

OK - I have Sky Sports and I also have it on Sky Go and I also have access to my old man's Sky Sports.  I may be a neanderthal, but I have no idea how to access this..

Woeful officiating.  Our goalie catches a cross and gets pulled down by his shirt collar afterwards - not even during his jump.  Nowt given.

Stanley here early for the rugby league it seems.
Title: Re: TLOD v Who are they?
Post by: Dutch Uncle on August 10, 2024, 03:56:42 pm
Bit unlucky just before HT, whistle went just as we were launching a dangerous attack.

I remember back in the 1960's we were playing at Belle Vue against Wrexham I think. They 'scored' just before the break and the whistle went and the teams went off. Nobody knew what was going on, and they had to announce the score during HT and a big cheer went up when the tannoy said 0-0. I am fairly sure that ended up being the final score.

edit: Just checked - it was December 1968
Title: Re: TLOD v Who are they?
Post by: PDX_Rover on August 10, 2024, 03:57:39 pm
Are those sausage rolls ready for half time Peebs?

Bit of a patchy half. Accrington haven’t shown much. Good goal. A good talk from Grant…Ref a few calls not given.

Decent crowd. New kit looks good.

Have to say Rovers+ app is a big improvement, apart from Pete Catt’s mic not working. Airplay to the 65” telly and surround sound with no issues (Rovers Player was always problematic).

Happy days.

These new bar stools are the b*llocks.

Ooh - match highlights at H/T too…

Both goals representative of Sterry in a nutshell. Very capable going forward but not good enough at the back.

Still not woken up and Stanley look much more up for it now. Not optimistic about winning it.
