Yes, this week the Rovers have been to Hull and back.
We have lost a key board member in Dyk Watson along with his two co-directors, his children.
Also confirmation of what we already knew, Terry Brammall also resigning his position.
Then, Coppinger gets brutally attacked by a Bristol assasin, Beye gets sent off for a dodgy tackle which on another day might have been just a booking.
The last two events probably cost us at least a point and maybe more.
Then the news that all of us were sort of expecting, Sharp waving bye bye and off to pastures new.
So we had to go to Hull.
Against all the odds a good draw was earned and the spirit in the side shone like a beacon.
Out of adversity comes opportunity and strength.
Saunders asked the players to step up to the plate and it looks like they may have made the first move.
We all know the value of having the crowd behind the team so lets shout and bawl on Saturday and urge the lads on to another three points, only 22-24 more needed(probably) out of 54 to play for.
Bring on the Reading.
RTWD.

Now Sullivan has been written off for rest of season, NOW cancel his registration as a player and contract, keep the money to other keepers/ Employ him as a goal keeping coach when lee Butler's contract of employment is up. If he does not have one then Sully has to go.

I guess your Dyk reference is a moderator thing? Strangely I wasn't able to use a word meaning a garden tool for digging in a past post. Did you hear they want to change Donny Dog as the mascot? Tracey should change her name to Carol Gees I say.

Our manager in all his wisdom gave Sullivan a new deal, which was probably what set alarm bells ringing
The bells are tolling now I think - not just for Sullivan

Doony-lass, i think DS gave Sulli the extension to his contract with the aim of having him as second choice(cover) for whoever his first choice is going to be, then Ikeme and now Button.
In my opinion Sulli is a better second choice than Gary woods.
Nookie, yes you are right, the wouldnt let me write Dyk with an i in place of the y.
Did they refuse to let you use the word spade as it was a racialist reference?
(Yes i know what the refused word was really).

Donny-lass, apologies for the spelling error in your name in the last post, i didnt do it on purpose, it was a general slip up.

Yes I used the plural version in the context that JR had passion in them. I agree with your Sulli comments. A win Saturday would be huge for us at this point.
