I was thinking the same thing myself :D

Any of them that do "work", usually do it by night when their victims are tucked up in bed :eek:

dont think any of them actually work

It could also be due to the fact that visiting hour at The Joy is from 7.00pm to 8.00pm so it would stop a fair proportion of the "little 'uns" from attending - even they would rather see their brothers and fathers each week rather than Flynny, Georgie et all.

Expect small Rovers contingent at the game on Friday now as a result :) :D
