    Chalk and Cheese

    Saturday to tonight . We actually dominated , scrapped , played and out fought Fulham .
    I now see some light .
    Can I ask one thing of our fans , get off Chris Browns back , the lad is as honest as the day is long , no , he isn`t a world beater and I`m sure he wont claim to be , but , he runs and battles and gives 100% everytime he sets foot on the pitch . Well done tonight CB .
    Corry Evans and Lenihan were outstanding in midfield , Evans was my MoM . Danny Graham showed glimpses as did Bennett .
    CoYB .

    Agree about Chris brown. Unfairly treated. Never had a injury free run to be judged properly. Tonight sounded like his contribution was crucial.

    I think someone of Brown's style can be fitted in if you have different types - such as Gomez - in the team too. When he looks lost is when he is the only attacking option. If he could get a goal, his confidence would definitely take a lift. I gather he did get some (non-ironic) cheers tonight.

    I was willing Brown to bang one in. To be fair, aside from the ever funny "feed the Brown and he will score" after his 1st half header, (which was on target), he go no stick from where I was. He put in a great shift and I thought he should have been subbed at about 75 mins as he looked uttery knackered. But even after that he created another chance with a decent tackle when he was on the deck. He's no world beater, but no one can accuse him of not putting in a proper shift.

    Anyway, after 10 minutes the lads looked great for the next 80, just that little bit of extra effort from each player showed what could be achived. Fulham hardly looked terible, which made the win so much sweeter, Bring on the Hammers

    Still think he'll be let go in the summer, but while he's here putting in effort like tonight he deserves fans backing him.

    Apparently, he was excellent against QPR. Consistency was never his strong-point at Rovers.

    The Rovers players obviously know TC inside out and you could see they knew how to play him . Once he was on the ball let him go to his right and he is lost , loses 80% of his passing options once he has to go that way . #onetrickpony.
