appleton makes big sam look positive doesn't he

we have the attacking players to cause a threat to anybody in this league

the fans will turn on him before long mark my words

   Goalless first-half but #lufc have looked the more likely to score. Midfield trio of Norris,Tonge & Green looking fluid. #roversstruggling.

   You know it was a bad first half when you're moved to vacuum the carpets at halftime. Hoping for better in the next 45. #Rovers

Yeah they probably will, but then we seem to have an unfair share of stupid fans with stupid opinions.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Signs of life, but still 2nd best

JR, 1st chance, just wide

[adopted scouser]

Villa equalise against Arsenal - hilarious

[AdamRochina]

i really dont rate appleton,,, every game home or away we seem to get dominated possesion wise and sometimes chance wise, we have an attack that should scare every team yet we seem like we cant score goals, under him havent we only won games 1-0 or drew 1-1

[bigbrandjohn]

Junior coming on for QPr. samba looking a shadow of his former self

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Defence awesome today, still feel scum more likely to score, DJ poor and needs replacing

[pick32]

Why even put gomes on the bench when he never brings him on

[T4E]

We sound solid again, that's a good sign. Our midfield is dire so the chances of us dominating teams are very slim.

Hope we nick a late one.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

0-0 will be a good result today

Except when we beat Derby 3-0 and Bristol City 2-0

[youandwhosearmy]

Why doesn't he use subs unless there's an injury? Something not right there...

[Proudtobeblue&white]

JR left footed from edge of area, saved

[G Somerset Rover]

We've scored the second fewest goals in the league at home, and I'd imagine, averaged under, or on par with 1 goal a game since Appleton joined league wise. We need to be a bit more adventurous!

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Good late pressure, but too little I fear

[G Somerset Rover]

Also, no subs once more apart from one that was forced. A little strange, not like the players were on fire and we couldn't pull anyone off.

[adopted scouser]

Another point, bored rigid

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Zaragoza vs Valencia kicks off in 5 mins if anyone else cares.

Rochina starts for Zaragoza.

Why even put gomes on the bench when he never brings him on

Yeah, I'd like to see more of Gomes. Sure, he's getting on and hasn't played for awhile, but he did well with Rhodes at the start of the season and would definitely offer something different up front.

[neophox]

Yes, Nuno should had been on....don't know why Appleton stayed with DJ who was really poor.

Can't say Im impressed by Bentley either....hope Olsson is back to Leicester on the left wing, Rekik was good today.

But a draw is poor for us,,, good for Leeds.

[G Somerset Rover]

I know our season tickets are cheap but they'll be giving them away next season such is the lack of action we've seen all season at home.

[bluefred]

after the highs at highbury back down to the @#/? at ewood.

roll on next season.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

I felt he needed to use subs, home side, always on back foot, DJ doesn't help JR enough, we are in the right place in league
