Also, Dan, what about the "performance" issue that was discussed before Christmas? All the reports say Rovers played excellent football against Bolton.
In other words, 70 minutes of poor performance against Charlton, but a 2-0 victory, compared with about 70 minutes of good football against Bolton, but a 1-2 defeat.
I repeat - I don't think it's the clear-cut decision that many of you are making out.
I'm sorry but what a load of codswallop. This is one of the more ridiculous side effects of the modern fan's obsession with pretty football and enthusiasm for jumping on moronic hysterical bandwagons.Quote:

Heskey has scored 111 Premier League goals in his career. That's something Rhodes and Gestede will both never come close to, and yet our fans rightly sing their every week. There's naff all wrong with having Heskey score against us, get a grip.

Then rethink this absolute *******s about lack of motivation.
We will hopefully play as well as we did today when we play Boro and I have a strong feeling we will beat them. Making an absolute mockery of this motivation thing. As it's *******s
