Will Rovers survive?

Rovers are going down. A disgraceful display against Arsenal. Diouf should have walked for the foul on Almunia and Pedersen should be in the next Norwegian Olympic diving team, how on earth did he avoid a yellow card?
You have the nerve to talk about a Rovers player diving, when you support a team who have the biggest diving cheat the Prem has ever seen in that Portuguese Ponce Ronaldo

Ronaldo does try to fool the referee into thinking he was fouled, he does wait for the opposition player to get within ten yards of him before diving.:D
The biggest diving cheat ever seen was in the days before the premiership. The well-known bog roll manufacturer, Francis Lee.

I still feel Rovers will just about cobble together enough points to survive, but it is going to be very tight. Theres a lot of teams involved in the mix this time, and i feel we are solid enough to grind out results against many of the teams in and around us. Lets not take away, from a damn good display by Arsenal yesterday. As Sam says, our fate wont be decided by games against the top 3 or 4 teams. My gut feeling for the drop still remains, West Brom, Boro and Stoke, and i'm pretty convinced we will finish above Newcastle too, their fixtures are more difficult than our i feel. We do need to start to take advantage of our home games now though which we hav'nt been too good at doing so far this season. I do feel that Diouf was very lucky to stay on, a ruddy daft, needless challenge. And Pedersen will, or should, be well embarrased looking at the replays of his attack of dropsy!! The problem is refs will be more aware of his attitude now and may well rule out future, more valid claims!!....But do agree that Ronaldo is still the cheating supremo!!

PS....and as for Fergie saying they were the better team, has he taken to drinking his vino before and during games these days, rather than after!! Comic Relief a day late!!

Think Rovers will stay up, but will certainly be a close one! Still feel it will be West Brom, Boro and stoke that go. But others are dropping fast too ie Hull and Newcastle, and The Toon have got some toughies against the top clubs over the next few weeks....mind you so have we!!

I agree with you Taggy. It was pretty impossible for us against Arsenal on Saturday (mind you - would have thought the same for Spurs yesterday!). Anyhow, let´s hope and pray Sam and the boys manage to bang a few more wins in....they say if you get 40pts you are ok and I think we have 30 now....so keep up the good work Rovers!

Looking at the fixtures I'd rather have Rovers than Either Newcastle or Middlesborough red rose
 
Yes they will. They have quality unlike most teams in their. Would be funny to see them go down with such good players though! To just show to the Premiership that any team can go down!

Quite right stanley even United were relegated only 4 years after their finest hour, no one is infallible an can be relegated no team has a god given right to play in the Prem that's why I dislike fans saying when they are in the promotion race "we will be back where we belong" you earn the right to play in the Prem and you only belong there by your own efforts on the pitch year in year out, being in the Prem and staying there has to be earned
 
Rovers v West Ham...spoke to a couple of Rovers fans going to Ewood ..they reckoned a dead cert 0-0..so a point... not good enough.

Have to agree Mancie, we need 10 pionts minimum from 9 games

Home

West Ham
Spurs
Wigan
Portsmout
WBA

Away

Liverpool
Stoke
City
Chelski
 
looking at the list Rovers should get 10 pionts from the home games...but then again if they don't it's bye bye!
