I'm not sure when this radio interview happened but he left Mansfield in 2001, that's quite some time ago to be fair. Anyway, turns out he played for Hartlepool against us in that playoff game in 2004. Never knew that before. Maybe that explains the "Happy Days" comment more than him just being Manager of Rovers? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Simpson Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Needed cheering up after Tuesday so took a rare look at the league 1 table, that helped. Then looked at the league position of the sags last 2 opponents who they could not beat at home. Going to be a good season all around, bring on Derby. COYR.

I think that is wishful thinking, I always thought it was a centre forward playing at right back due to an injury Looking below it was Eifion Williams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calculus Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) Maybe my memory isnt what it used to be so have checked youtube. (Always worth doing btw). So, previous posters are right, it was Clarke (number 7) that lost the header in the build up. I knew he was somehow culpable. Whilst we're looking, take a glimpse at Goodfellow's goal. Great cross from Roberts brilliant header but nobody anywhere near Goodfellow never mind challenging. Who's their static number 7, helpfully standing 3 yards from Goodfellow? To be fair, Daz was a 72nd minute substitute and Hartlepool were only one up before he made his contribution...

"Oh right, so what division to they play in?" "Oh. So do they play in a stadium with tents for stands too, or is something a little more up-together?" "Oh OK.

An early attempt to snare students (although all those there now will have graduated by the time the UWE is built). Not even these morons would be stupid enough to advertise this given all the speculation and questions that will come with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily, I've had several business ventures that haven't worked out for whatever reason, but due to building a relationship with them it's easier/convenient to do future business.

SirColinOfMansfield Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 This was the hall all set up for the Freshers Fair ... ...but they are so worried that the new UWE stadium will fall through so they decided this could be the new ground ... ...stealing from other people and squatting is in their blood!

Fiale Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Makes sense, many students when they finish UNI stay in the city and if they have any interest in the game will look to go to a few games. Even if they attract only 50 people across the whole of UWE each year 50 / 100 / 150 / 200 / 250 / 300 / 350 ---- these things then tend to blow into larger movements/numbers at which point is just a thing UWE/Rovers where you/friends students/ ex students are Rovers supporters... I would think it's the kind of thing our club would look to do as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
