Conway has been awful to watch.

It's a shame, he looks finished, can't even run with the ball.

[AdamRochina]

shame about conway, i really liked the guy, but he does indeed look finished, was once one of our must start players aswell, hopefully invest in a couple of tricky pacey wingers in jan

[blueboy3333]

Has Mowbray moved Antonnson from the left-side to the right to accommodate Conway?

[AAK]

It's been a decent end to end game, rovers not playing bad to be fair, just a few things a couple of players need to correct.

cheers. said in LT that Conway had started on the left.

Need a draw at least here with others winning. Losing would be a poor result. Looks as if the huge wait for 5 league wins in a row will go on...

First game back of a longish layoff tbf. Don,t think he's done much training either.

Yeah Conway is pretty much done, but doubt we could have dumped him even on a free considering his wage. Similar situation with Graham.

Not too worried yet as I think we can come back into it, but we can't keep conceding two goals and expect to win, so that really needs to be their only goal of the afternoon. 

Wait, wasn't conway our best player in the pre-season games? I mean i might be mistaken but writing him of because of poor 45mins considering he just came back from injury is a bit harsh

[yellowsubmarine]

Positives - we still have 11 men. we are only 1 goal down. i think we still can nick this if we find a goal early in the second half.

Conway did start on the left. Outpaced and outbullied by the right back, and then switched win Antonsson. Antonsson been good (except an awfull dive), always straigt for goal and gives defenders something to worry about.

Well he was pretty poor last season so you can make a fair judgement on that. Leon Best had a good pre season before he got injured, if memory serves, and look how that turned out. 

[jim mk2]

Rovers look flat crowd subdued poor goal to concede training ground routine Samuel should have scored nyambe and downing having poor games 

[Waggy76]

Am I right in thinking this is only the 5 time we have played Peterboro ?

2 defeats in our promotion season 74/75..And a win and a loss in our 1st season relegated with the home game defeat 1_4 the last game ever for Danny Murphy ....

they are the last 3 teams on my accumlator to play, psg kick off at 4 i think,  valenica last with a 7 45 kick off,  west ham kept my bet going with their win, wigan winning 2 nil, derby too,  oldham and colchester and macclesfield won, few others too

Are you watching mate? Have you seen how bad his build up play is, it's terrible, if he scores fair play to the lad, and he does have a goal or two in him at this level, but his hold up play and first touch are abysmal

I'm not and if he isn't performing he should be brought off, fact is though he was dropped after his red card, eventually got a chance from the bench and changed the game including a goal, didn't get on in the next win and then in his next start scored 2.  He's right to have been given a chance to earn the shirt.

[Tom]

Evans off Tomlinson on.

Corry did well to last 15 mins fair play to him, warrior! 

[AdamRochina]

wtf evans off tomlinson on, he injured too? jesus when you luck is out its out

[skous18]
