Rovers Need Miracles but not Saints

I see Southampton have used 20 players all season, and we're about to use our 35th, which is obviously one of the reasons there are 22 places between us.

I've tried to put a possible link on here to the game(yet again) but they don't let me post them. As it's a bigger than usual game I've put this message for you to look on live chat on extra-time and you will find the link on there. If it scroll off the top of the screen then I will put it on again just before the game.

Why is this site so limited as to what can be posted?

I didn't want to bring this up Balbykiwi, but when you are winning and top of the table, the little injuries are taken for granted, you don't want to lose your place in the team. So you play through them.

We have also had the long term injuries which don't seem to stop and when you are at the bottom the manager whether SoD or Saunders in this case have to try different things.

I think the present system is responsible for Ikeme, Chimbonda, Diouf, Beye, Goulon, Ulunga and now Diatta if he plays.

The other 28 were here already and in most cases were used by the outgoing manager. Everything is better when your at the top, you get the dubious penalty, you get the rub of the green etc, when your at the bottom the opposite applies.

There does seem to be a number of links to live streams but it will not be possible to check them out until nearer 3pm.

Post links without the www at the beginning - I think everyone will work it out

Tried it Meath but I keep getting this message which I've had before when trying to post links.

Rovers Player is working OK with me. I've not found a TV link though.

Decent start by the sounds.

Certainly sounds better so far today. Suddenly optimistic. Rovers!

Yes DBA, Gillett seems to having a go against his old team, Beye, Goulon and Stock sound to be doing well.

posted on 3/12/11

Sounds very much like the old Stocky again. Thought that one was in. Come on Donny!!

Woh! That possession Stat isn't the best 66% to Southampton! Not quite what I'm hearing.

posted on 3/12/11

Yeah, says 69% on mine Fuzzy. You wouldn't have thought so listening to it. Played Ikeme!

posted on 3/12/11

Damn!! Come on Donny, sounds like a cracking game.

Ilunga keepd getting in headers at the back post from corners, saved on the line this time.
