Myles Anderson not having a stormer then?

He's not playing too bad, not stood out which I suppose is a good thing!

Myles Anderson not having a stormer then?

Much better than Samba has played. Samba off at half time

[davulsukur]

What position he playing? Slightly worrying if Sambas head is elsewhere.

It is only pre season so early days.

[Tom]

Anderson is left back, Blackman has looked decent enough but we've been really poor

that team may well be the slowest eleven we've ever put out!

[Tom]

Blatant penalty turned down there and were doing everything but score

As I say that mauro scores a belter

[Glenn]

1 1 formica well taken from Dunn header

I thought Formica could not trap a ball!

How has he played in the game, does it look like he is getting used to English conditions?

Samba was nursing a knock from earlier in the week.

[Madon]

The last 20 minutes Formica was fantastic!

Mate who text earlier and slammed the Brazilian full back is singing Formicas praises, says he looks a class act.

Ewood Spark?

[Fife Rover]

It surely must be over by now. So would someone like to tell us that cannot be there what the final score was? Thanks in anticipation!

[chaddyrovers]

1-1

[jonv]

1st game 2-1 rovers second game 1-1.

[Tom]

It finished one all, Formica has talent for sure but got bullied at times with little help from the ref, I like that he always wants to make something happen and isnt afraid to try the audacious, a scissor kick off a corner today for example.

One thing that puzzles me for that 2nd game against Morecambe we were in our traditional blue & white halves. Instead of wearing the shirts with no sponsor surely it would have been better to wear the ones with Venkys on. The ones the players modelled on their twitter it would at least have looked more professional. Apart from that the kit looks really nice & hope we get a decent sponsor now.

[niggit]

Said it from the start that I can see Formica having chance to play in the hole behind the striker.

[T.J.Newton]

does anybody know why rohina doesnt seem to have played a part in either game(or have i missed somat)?

[andyroversmad]

Think he is injured.

Isn't Rochina injured?

What was the general feeling at the game - Did Kean get any pelters/any anti Venkys vitriol?

[heysham rover]

I watched both games from the tunnel and it was really interesting overhearing snippets of Kean and Jensens discussions, most of it centred on intensity and pressing high up the pitch, they are both clearly massively into the sport science side of things.

I think the overall feeling is summed up by 'meh'! Nothing of note really happened.

[AggyBlue]

'ang on, how can a professional footballer - who's brazilian, look awful against Accrington Stanley?

Nah!

He started poor but got better through the game.
