  1. Crolla fast becoming the next Hatton. Both really nice guys, great boxers and have captured the Manchester and wider public's imagination. So much respect for Crolla, that bloke was a dangerous opponent - you could tell he could box and hit hard. Devastating ko for Khan but always a danger of it happening. Gotta wonder how much he's got left in the tank now. He simply has to take the Brook fight, which would be a sell-out at Wembley.
  2. Absolutely. In short, they need us a lot more than we need them. I can't wait until they turn on 'Darrell' when things start to go badly, and end up hounding him out the club like they did with 'Trolls' and 'Ollie'.
  3. Well, they have just managed to beat the worst team in the entire football league with practically the last kick of the game...
  4. One of Accrington or Oxford are gonna **** this up I reckon.
  5. Chisora v Pulev and Khan v Alvarez this weekend. Chisora up to his usual antics at the presser yesterday dragging Pulev's head down whilst in the stare out. He's got his work cut-out on the night and whilst capable of a surprise will probably lose. Alvarez heavy favourite to beat Khan. I like what I've been hearing from Khan though, accepting he doesn't have the power to trouble Alvarez and saying he'll use his speed and movement to win the fight. If he gets dragged into a fight with Alvarez; he's getting knocked out. If he boxes on the outside and retains his speed from being a light-welter then I believe he can win and will be having a little bet on him at 5/1 to win on points.
  6. It means the sags will continue to be run on a shoestring budget.
  7. I think they're all but up looking at their run-in.
  8. They're not and Martin has to think about his health, family and career. Quite simply he found out he was out of his depth pretty quickly. He tasted the power and after that he didn't want to know, and who can blame him? He gets up the second time, he's only going straight down again - why risk potential permanent damage?
  9. Mahela! What a legend. Was lucky enough to meet the great man a few years back in Sri Lanka. Top man.
  10. Cheers, pretty sure I know what that plan is if it's the same one they've had for a while now.
  11. Anyone able to give a summary of what Toni the till has been saying here:
  12. In the 2014-15 season Roverzzz lowest "league" home crowd was 4,861. In the same season we took 5,109 to an away league match at MK Dons.
  13. Yeah not quite sure what Joe Gallagher's game plan was, but whatever it was it failed miserably. I thought both fighters looked petrified when they touched gloves at the start of the fight and relieved when it was all over. One of those fights where the stakes were so high the pressure got to both of them. The first two rounds were terrible but after that I thought Frampton took control of the fight and he left no-one in doubt as to who the superior boxer was. Shocking yet again to see such a bizarre scorecard from a judge - Quigg by 2 rounds, really?? Frampton v Santa Cruz next assuming he defeats Martinez.
  14. Anyone recommend a pub in Bristol showing the fight tomorrow?
  15. Anyone know when tickets go on sale for the Gayle-force T20 games at Taunton?
  16. There's just something not quite right about this Wael Al-Qadi bloke
  17. Why has one of their own fans replied in massive letters #MINDTHEGAP and then three sags liked the post? Are they completely thick or what? Or are they just ignoring a dozen odd league positions and the whole of League One?
  18. Ah, yes sorry they just weren't allowed to broadcast it - still seems a little odd. BBC Radio Bristol Verified account ‏@bbcrb Hi @EastvilleErn - the new owners at Rovers wouldn't let us broadcast it live...
  19. The new owners banned the BBC from attending first presser! Getting off on the right foot then...
  20. I agree but think they will have other options as to how they can deliver the stadium, as I've alluded to before...
