Sick of Rovers finding a new way to become a laughing stock every season. Think Elliot Jackson is the best rovers correspondent we’ve had and have never heard/read him say anything that wasn’t fair comment.

Shocking second half. Had the momentum going into half time and then 5 minutes of pressure then nothing isn’t good enough against a team that crap. Bye bye playoffs. #rovers

You can say all you like about Venkys and I’d probably agree but frankly Eustace sounds like he has flounced off. Shame because he brought a really good feel to Rovers.

Rovers Burnley derby is a bit overrated these days. Burnley fans muted home and away, Rovers players and fans not taking it seriously anymore. Playing with a corner flag today seemed like an insecure attempt to revive the old aggro.
