Good job Rovers don't do draws

Spilt my drink when that went in.

Ridiculous that they are third in the table and only Huddersfield have more defeats.

It's turning into a good Xmas

Will be 11 points clear if we win tomorrow

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:28 pm

First time they have lost this season after being in front. Shame that record had to go, not.

northeastclaret · Post by **northeastclaret** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:29 pm

Wow what a good start to the football for the clarets , both Watford and Rovers don’t get any points on us .

No teams other than us and Sheffield United seem to be able to string two wins together

ecc · Post by **ecc** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:30 pm

Great result. They just can't get a run together.

ksrclaret · Post by **ksrclaret** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:30 pm

Two fantastic defeats there for Bar Stewards and Watford.

Now it's come on Coventry.

RVclaret · Post by **RVclaret** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:32 pm

2 perfect results there.

Obviously we need to look after ourselves tomorrow but we could go 11 clear of 3rd and 13 clear of, who I consider, our main promotion rival (Watford, who were absolutely dire today btw and lost their best player to injury).

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:36 pm

Great start to the day. Watford and Rovers zero points. Watford 1 red and Rovers 5 yellows. Perfect

Spijed · Post by **Spijed** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:37 pm

I now think that if we win the next two promotion is looking all but certain.

Far too soon to say things like that.

Every week I say this league is full of dross and nothing typifies it more than Rovers, their record this season and their place in the table. Only Huddersfield have lost more. I'll enjoy watching Rovers sink to mid table as a fun little subplot to our promotion chase.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:44 pm

Rovers have lost 4 and won 2 of the last six and are still going to be third at the end of this round of matches.

I’ll have whatever you are on! Nothing is certain by Christmas.

Although, for the record, a month or so ago I said we would push on after the break and win the league by 15 points.

Nah. As things stand promotion is ours to lose.

To top of a good start to Boxing Day, a reply has just finished of Usyk Schooling Joshua. He’s just going through his melt down in the ring… absolutely awesome.

Please don't say such things, Spijed. Do you honestly think VK and the players will be thinking that?

Been watching a movie, just checked the scores and saw Rovers slipped to a late defeat what a shame.

Callum O'Hare stretchered off for Coventry, from SSN reporting sounds like a possible muscle/knee injury.

Swizzlestick · Post by **Swizzlestick** » Mon Dec 26, 2022 3:07 pm

Chris Wood penalty scored for NUFC.

Almiron has just added a second

Sounds like Almiron has scored a worldie, Leicester 0-2 Newcastle.

Everton 1-0 Wolves

Good team goal but not a worldie.

Sheff Utd game back. Couple of stutters but is better than it was, at the minute.

Loved Mowbray's celebrations after their winner. Normally a very calm and controlled person, but clearly not a lot of love left for his former employers

We made Boro look distinctively average yet they are back to winning again. Just shows how good we are.

Newcastle 3-0 up at Leicester.

What a season they're having. 2nd in the league now.

Palace down to 10 men, Mitchell straight red.
