    This forum - perspective

    I tend to avoid reading match threads these days. I never look at them or contribute to them at the time of the game as I am too wrapped up in proceedings on the pitch to look on here. I have just read through most of the Bournemouth match thread which was a big mistake. The negative comments...

    Reading all of this back it sounds like the boo boys have started on Dabo.

    Time to go Robins

    Bournemouth just sat back? Taxi for Parker! There are some real eejits on here!

    Scab?

    I went to most games in Northampton and stood on the hill. I didn't see any of those going in getting abuse. However we did receive some once from someone leaving the ground early while we were still looking at the bit of the pitch we could see. This guy objected to us being there and told us...

    One of the greatest games?

    My favourite too. We would have beaten Brazil that night we were so good.

    Crowd trouble

    I noticed them on the way in and didn’t really pay them much attention. On the way out they were a major obstruction to the flow of the crowd, also very difficult to see in the dark and also the crush of the crowd. I’m not sure what they were supposed to do.

    Crowd trouble

    You need to look back at the late eighties, have a look at the average gates of even the top teams. Football was on its knees and one of the biggest contributing factors was the type of moronic behaviour lots of us witnessed yesterday. We were trying to leave after the game yesterday with my 6...

    Reality check

    I think that is way off the mark. A foul is a foul, it's not dependant on how long a player holds onto the ball. Anyone who has watched our games this season knows that O'Hare is targeted by opposition teams, often for rotation fouls. His treatment at Barnsley and Blackpool was shocking. At...

    Derby crowd

    Although it's not showing as open, they still sell tickets in block 31. We usually sit in block 20 but because my second son is using one of his match package tickets tomorrow and also my grand daughter is coming to her second game, we swapped our ST plus 2 more for seats behind the goal, Block...

    David Speedie comments CWR

    I was at that too. He didn’t come across as a very nice bloke, in contrast to Pickering and Houchen who were both there and who seemed really decent people.

    Blackburn forum

    Well I’m not privy to the workings of Blackburn’s recruitment process but then again I don’t think you would be either. I’m pretty sure that Mowbray would have a very big say in the players that Blackburn bring in, just like Robins would here. If Blackburn had won yesterday they would be 7th as...

    So who was responsible for putting together the quality players all over the pitch?

    They are my top two coldest games too.

    Laws of the game

    I have no problem with the ban on Godden.He cheated and was caught out. I have just watched Forest Green v Swindon. Forest Green forward was through on goal, keeper dives at his feet and the forward goes down. On the replay it is clear that the keeper makes no contact initially but the forward...

    Transfer Rumour Where will Max Biamou end up?

    I was there for that. I can’t remember him doing too much else positive. A disappointing signing I think.

    Callum O’Hare

    Just the right time to get him to sign a new long term contract perhaps.

    Yes, I thought the penalty and the sending off were really harsh last season. Let’s hope he tries to redress the balance tonight. (Fat chance!)

    Jimmy Hill day

    I was at the last league game with Fulham. It was our first season in the first division, Noel Cantwell had not long taken over and we were abject as Fulham beat us 3-0. The result was all the worse as Fulham were obviously going to be one of our relegation rivals for that season. Fulham did...

    Some may not care

    You would think that they would need bigger attendances than that as an average to be sustainable? It would be great if there comes a Bristol Rovers moment where the tenants become the landlords.
