It'll feel like a home game for Barrow today. The non-league ground is on the left. And on the right.

They certainly weren't anything special, and very lacking in confidence bar woeful Rovers defending. I assume that your mate is being self-depreciating and somewhat humorous when he says 'cr@p', but I was amazed at the number of Millwall fans who actually ridicule their own team and routinely abuse their own players even at 4-0 up. It makes the idea AG is full of moaners seem very misplaced. One Cockney must have referred to every one of his own team as a "C". More seriously one player we might want to look at (and logic says probably are) is Mahlon Romeo, a young right back, he might be Mark Little MKII but gets forward well, makes the right decisions to give and go, wants to get crosses in, and in defence is persistent in chasing down and closing down the opposite number out on the flank. Someone in my local said West Ham are considering a £2m bid for him. Would be one for the future and a replacement for Matthews. 15:00 "Goodnight Irene" 15:01 "All hate Bristol City" (largely inaudible, Gas lot look miffed that Millwall haven't joined in) 15:02 Millwall started singing their largely forgettable Miiiiiillll nonsense (plus the usual Wales / tractor things), didn't hear the Gas again I get that it was a poor performance for them with little to cheer (I was at Colchester in the promotion season and know how flat an away end can go when you're being stuffed) but it said a lot that their second song was already about us, and that they had nothing after that. Even at 10 men their team played some decent stuff on the break through Boateng, but there wasn't any group in their away crowd trying to get anything going. Very quiet and definitely not special*. *Well, not in that way. Not wanting to bust any other myths, but the family club had teenager in glasses who spent the final 15 minutes on his feet gesticulating at the rowdy Millwall fans in the Dockers stand and bizarrely offering them outside (half heartedly accompanied by an overweight mate behind him, who didn't look quite as certain that was the right thing to be doing). He looked more like a kid (Millwall fans called him "Harry Potter") so to be honest I actually felt quite sorry for him. Regarding this 1,000 away attendance, I didn't expect it to be such a source of debate, and I don't really care as either way it looked like a pretty poor following to me, but for the avoidance of doubt, Rovers did have late comers who then used a third block to the right of those in my picture, but that block was less than 50% as much full as the others, which I took into account when I estimated around 600 of them in total. I certainly did not ever see 1000 in that stand.

Have a timestamp.

Thanks for the assist.

Thank you that's my hand.

It was 600 at an absolute max. I'm really not interested in the Gas but the Den is a few minutes walk for me and the lads in my local keep telling me to come down. I've never seen a Dopey Darrell era team and not sure what the fuss is about. They have one class act in the lad in midfield on loan from Palace, but the rest is awful and Taylor did absolutely F all up front. To be fair to them they looked like with 11 they could play some decent direct stuff on the break via the Palace lad but the defence was awful, slow and useless on the ball, makes me realise how good we are playing out of the back. My biggest takeaway about the Gas is the fella with the beard and wurzel gummidge hair is an absolutely obscene diver. Really doesn't matter that he's Gas, I'd say it if he played for my team, he is an absolute embarrassment, I thought I'd seen some things in football, but never a player who dives IN HIS OWN HALF four or five times rather than defend, proper cynical. Make sure you see Millwall's fourth goal, a belter of a back pass from the Gas. Their fans had one round of Irene, one round of 'All hate Bristol City' (yes, that was their second song of the day) and then deadly quiet being abused by the Millwall lot for the rest of it. No one was locked outside but quite a small number made it inside. Must have been some kind of hold up in the concourse that lasted all 90 minutes.

I don't think he works to be fair, just look at him. Day out for him, day off for his carer.

It was a fantastic strike to win any match and if only you could hold more than just 4000 without additional tent pegs, more Gasheads would have seen it. I reckon you need a new venue, ideally one with all satellite TV channels available, no horses, and room for the floating 20,000 Indonesians on Facebook. BTW Wael has been asking for credit for weeks. All the banks have refused so far.

He could have just stopped there

How do you mount a TV studio on top of a tent anyway?

Not tin pot at all. This is the FIRST thing you see, full screen, if you visit the official Bristol Rovers website today (www.bristolrovers.co.uk)

Why are they all standing like ******* Mighty Morphin Power Rangers?

Didn't that start when he took over at Bristol Rovers?

Are they planning on opening a canine sperm bank in Leeds?

Didn't get any further than the sag whose excited sign off was: Boom boom boom everyone sing Wael, Wael! I can't work out if it's a joke on their part or not, but either way my mouth hit the floor. Is Boom boom boom really the most appropriate way to celebrate a new Middle Eastern owner? By the way, for those of you who aren't still listening to teen-market nineties Europop anymore and can't make the connection, I believe it's from Mad Stuntman "I like to move it move it". "I like to move in" would be more appropriate for squatters. Bath City FC. Bristol RFC. UWE.

The difference between these and their predictions are that as always, Bristol Rovers are much better at filling stadiums that haven't been built but not ones that have.

Commentator made that even worse by not having a clue what was going on

This commentator is so irritating

"If you don't do it, Sky will"

Where were all these players Mr. 10% when this was happening? Agents are normally so fond of influencing their players career and financial planning.

Do you think they will go full blown Hull Tigers / Cardiff Dragons and rename them the Bristol Black Arabs?* *Not racist, that was their original name.

He's done it! Worst referee ever at Ashton Gate. Congratulations to him.

Today's ref making a fantastic bid for the record. I reckon he's done it. Cheque in the post from Birmingham no doubt.

At the time of the Birmingham game his job description in the programme was "Poultry Waste Manager" so henceforth he has always been known to me as Chicken Sh-- Dean.
