A reminder to anyone going to this that buying tickets in advance is a good move financially but ignore the official sites news item that tickets can be bought up till 5 o'clock on Friday.

That's for home fans only because Rovers post away fans tickets out and don't allow collection from the ground on the day of the game. I'll be going for the weekend so I'm buying/collecting mine from the ground on Friday.

The girl in the office wasn't happy with that but I told her tough. That's what I'll be doing!

After last nights shambles I am not looking forward to this, we will probably go and smash them now! :lol:

I still haven't seen us score away this season so at least that will be a bonus if we do.

This game clashes with a Public Meeting being held in the Village Hall where I live. Neither event on the face of it is particularly exciting and a trip to Bristol whilst being undertaken in good company requires an expenditure of around about £35 which frankly I can put to better use rather than add to Bristol's playing budget.

Yes I know the team appreciates the support on the terraces but blood and sand is just being there frozen to the ground with little if anything to get excited about like last evening the support they need.

Must get cold living in the village hall.

Following our recent results and performances, confidence appears to have hit rock bottom amongst contributors in the Prediction League. Only 1 person reckons Harriers will beat Rovers tomorrow, 4 see us grabbing a draw while 22 have gone for a Harriers defeat. Oh dear! :sad:
Although having now departed for Nuneaton, Gash remains the popular choice as opening Harriers scorer, (this can be amended by anyone who has nominated him) just ahead of Reid.

Regarding Gash going out on loan, I have got him for first scorer in the Altringham game - could I pleeeease change that to Robinson.

Probably wrong again. 3-5-2 for the first competitive game this season, Neither Nicolson or Marv are wing backs. young Green is a wing back and must have been looking forward to playing against his former club. Hope the change comes off.

I think the fact without Hodgkiss we'd have to play left-footer Nicho on the right and the inexperienced Green on the left prompted the revertion to the pre-season 3-5-2.
Sounds like we made a game of it too, according to BBC 14 shots and 6 on target?

Interesting to see if we keep the formation for next game......

According to the official match report, it sounds like BR's subs 'three pairs of fresh legs' made the difference?

Why did we only make one substitution?
