Crikey, another walloping I guess...

The annihilations as on Friday are extra special. Do not confuse my jibes as sour grapes, those tend to come from the supporters of losing clubs. You should be appreciating that at the moment. This is the third season you have been the second club in the City. We finished lower than we should have done last year due the unfortunate actions of our then coach. We were in a playoff spot before the wheels fell off. Due to the great team spirit amongst the players and the coaching of Mags and Co we were able to recover somewhat and still give you a thrashing on your patch and finish above you. Our team spirit, enthusiasm and skill amongst the players, the up-to date coaching methods employed by Willie Peters are things FC supporters can only dream about. That is the difference between our two clubs. Never in decades of supporting Rovers, even in bankruptcy have any of our teams not shown team spirit and pride. I generally feel sorry for the supporters of teams at or near the foot of the table as we all know how upsetting and difficult that is. In FC’s case however that feeling changes to delight after having to endure the jibes from a “big” club. Long may your misery continue.

Not really, game's over already apparently.

A lot more confident than I was on Good Friday but as always anything can happen in a derby, even if one side was top of the table unbeaten and playing like Saints 2006 I wouldent stick my house on the result!
comments on here shows the tides turned already. To be fair, we’re one of the worse teams in the comp at the minute. Desperately need a half and a prop. You should be favourites with the bookies. Can smell the confidence in your camp already. Funny that if you win we’re still 2 points in front. We win and I’ll be laughing even more.

Is this balls off Faceybook? I don't have that, what a pair of embarrassing tits. Having said that, La Cafe is a cheeky little minx that will never grow out of these shenanigans.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Do Catalans not have any props or halfbacks you can take on short term loans?
