Bristol Rovers are better at football when the fans are behind them and worse at football when the fans boo.

The fans are booing again.

Clubs/countries make appeals to governing bodies for less controversial decisions.

This is why so many people are against VAR.

They've ruined England's game and put the tournament in jeopardy.

The World Cup of Darts is one of the most fun tournaments in all of sport.

Couldn't give a shit what happens outside of major tournaments (as long as we win enough games to qualify)

Other than 2008, we've (usually) qualified comfortably for every tournament in my lifetime & look how they've gone

Any manager can take us to a tournament, so far only one has taken us deep

Can't wait for the calls for Tuchel to be sacked over a friendly (against a good team at that).

It's crazy to me that ITV have Lee Dixon on every England game when they have far better co-commentators like Andros Townsend.

I give up. See you next season (or maybe not)

16 points behind in my mini league and outside the top 200k overall so I'm chasing hard still. Plenty of differential so nothing to lose.

Back out of the top 200k.

Pretty unlucky again, Gvardiol loses his clean sheet with the last kick. Mbeumo misses a pen for the first time. McNeil not given the assist for the first goal. Salah & KDB missing tap ins.

Going all in for the final gameweek.

No transfers, thought about Watkins but want to make 2 transfers next week and decided against the third consecutive hit.

Massive differential captain but it's what's needed at this stage.

It's a green arrow but it feels like a bad week.

37 points from GK and DEF. 25 from MID and FOR including captain.

Top 100k might be out of the question so it's down to winning the mini-league.

Took another hit but think it will work out over 2 GWs.

Not ideal that Marmoush isn't starting but can't take another hit.

Don't think it's much of a risk starting my WHU defence over ARS defence this week but could be a good differential.

A week a go I couldn't wait for the season to end. Now I can't wait for the next season to start.

The Darrell Clarke Effect.

The transfer worked out but most of the rank I gained on free hit has already gone.

Still feel like I just need a bit of luck to go my way.

Can't read too much into the odds as it's very early but I would be open to a DC return. Fans would give him a longer chance than other managers would get.

I'm very interested in Luke Williams. Had Notts County flying when he left to join Swansea. And importantly for Rovers, they could score goals.

I think he's been pretty unlucky too. Deserved something against Birmingham & more against Wrexham. And not a lot you can do when your players gift goals like they did against Mansfield.

The fans turned on him quickly when the results dipped and he wouldn't have got them back on board next season.

Hardly a surprise.

The results and performances up until mid-March were good and filled with promise. Then the results fell off a cliff and other than a couple of games the performances were poor too.

A combination of lack of belief, fear and just shooting ourself in the foot.

FH34 goes quite well.

Genuinely wonder why some people come to Rovers games when all you're going to do is moan and groan.

90% people here don't know anything about football and that would be fine if you created a positive atmosphere for the players to thrive in.

How can you groan when there's mistakes caused by you?

None of the DGW players seemed worth taking a hit for so backing Murphy to keep his form going.

And if the late Exeter winner was wrongly disallowed for offside (hard to tell from any of the camera angles) we are truly the unluckiest team in the league.

COULD have been 3 points clear again.

I can't believe I have to say it every week that the officials have cost us points

In the whole game there's 2 big decisions to make and the ref's got them both wrong

It looked like he was going to blow for the handball until it went in

Forde shoved over in the box & the ref doesn't even flinch

Defend pretty well for 75 minutes and the referee undoes all of our hard work. I have lost all hope.

I just can't stop the red arrows.

Some bad luck with Asensio missing 2 penalties.

Bench boost next week so hopefully a turning point.

For the first time this season I think Bristol Rovers are more likely to be relegated than survive.
