[Archived] Nottingham Forest vs. Rovers - Saturday 18th January 2014

Deary deary me.

Mind you could be worse, we could be Bolton or Portsmouth (possibly will be Pompey bound at the end of this season thanks to the Venky f**kwits)

[LDRover]

Very disappointing.

Teams that set up with 2 DMs shouldn't concede 3 unless the quality of those DMs is particularly poor.

It's a shame, as soon as we look to be getting a bit of momentum we get stopped in our tracks.

[RevidgeBlue]

Well bugger

Without knowing anything about the goal Im going to make an assumption and blame Hanley and Lowe

Who's being childish now?

I like GB, but it does beg the question; If you play two defensive midfielder and concede 3, whats the point?

[RevidgeBlue]

Bolton seven.

[tkturner]

Reading now 7, @#/? hell...

[yoda's brother]

Not much cheer but Bolton 6 down now.

7 now

[West Yorks Rover]

Reading 7-0 now !

Wee Doogie for the sack ?

[tkturner]

Derby one nil up against Brighton now...

[Husky]

Not much cheer but Bolton 6 down now.

That's us pipped for 6th place on goal difference then,

ex-Rover Nick Blackman just scored

We never win 3 league games in a row. I'd love to know when we've last done it. Must be absolute yonks.

[den]

Only seen the second half, but we're built on sand. Such a soft touch. No steel to this squad.

[Bucksrover]

That half million we got for our midweek replay doesn't look like good value.

[West Yorks Rover]

All Forest again now. Oh dear !

[cesus]

I'm offering short odds on Hanley getting himself sent off here!

[folkdevil]

Dann broken wrist?

[Heinz]

Dann is not coming back on, so were down to 10

[Mike Graham]

Bolton comeback just started

[Waggy76]

Strange team selection, seems to me we were frightened of forest .God knows why it is a very poor league , let the other teams worry about us...

I cannot help thinking if Davies was our manager we would have at least 9 more points .

[Rover_Shaun]

This season was always going to be an up and down season just like last, but not as abject.

The problems for some start when they have totally unrealistic unicorn and fairy la la land based expectations

This squad was NEVER EVER going to challenge for promotion of any sort

Anything from 12th up will be a very good season

[Majiball]

Rhodes on for Gestede. Gary `The Grinder` Bowyer.

That made me chuckle..

[Waggy76]

Very true but there is a paucity of talent in the division, we need a goalkeeper asap ..

[Bucksrover]

I think we have suffered because of Bowyer's inexperience this week.

We got giddy with the cup replay, lost site of the priority of the League. Again we play the 2 rubbish defensive midfielders. We take Gestede off when we were chasing a goal.

The playoff teams push further ahead of us.

Agree to some extent. Did think we were one season away from having a settled team that could challenge. However, I don't think sneaking into the play-offs is unrealistic. All the teams around us seem pretty erratic - We've had one decent 90 minutes this season and yet we're still just 4 points off 6th place. Anything could still happen.
