No ockunbor on Friday , big blow for our noisey neighbours as well just when they get some tough fixtures, Lewis out for a while for them .

Anything under 50 I'll take, which seems to have become our benchmark this year!!!
We're on a hiding to nothing here, saints will be itching to show they are not a spent force, and we are in disarray after events over the past two weeks.

I would just like to see us having a spirited dig. Make it at least look like we've remembered that we are supposed to tackle the opposition when they have possession, don't simply watch the other side run through gaps a mile wide with no one even laying a finger on them!

If they manage even that simple basic feat, it will be an improvement on what we witnessed in the previous four games.
Praying for a miracle from somewhere, but simply hoping to avoid an annihilation!

Rovers posted a picture of Lewis training two hours ago and is also in their squad for this weekend.

In the interests of balance and fairness, and to cut the poor lad some slack, let us not forget his storming run at craven park (admittedly with no one else anywhere near him) to crash over and score, thus sparing us the ignominy of yet another nilling to them!!

Five seconds of game time when he actually did something!!! Five seconds within eight games so far. Money well spent I'm sure we all agree!!!

Quite possibly the worst signing the club has made in the past fifty years. Almost makes me nostalgic for the heady days of Kane Evans!!! or Dave Brown (one for those who were there in the late 80s ).

Blokes moved across the world and isn’t going great. Don’t know why more needs to be said. Leave the childish jabs to rovers fans.

You'd think if you take the trouble to move across the world youd at least put a bit of effort in. Waste of a shirt

Dave Brown (donk) remember his performances or lack of them, watched him in the Derby at Craven park, dreadful. But I believe when he left he still got an NRL gig.

Dave Brown Wow! Now there really was a deadherring there!
We sent him home early which was unheard of back then

Was brown the one nicknamed the tumble dryer?
