RevidgeBlue Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 What a strange game. For 40 minutes I thought it was the best performance of the season. Like watching the Man Ciry of League 1. Then we conceded a goal on HT which I missed because I'd gone to the loo and the second half eas completely different as we seemingly lost the ability to win a tackle or pass the ball to each other. Bennett had a very good first half but didappeared without trace in the second and our midfield was virtually non existent in the second period. Raya made a superp block on 75 mins when the Shrewsbury player was through on goal and that uLtimately made the difference. Anyhow three points which is just about all that matters so take it and move on. Mulgrew took a nasty looking knock, hope he's ok. Great atmosphere from the travelling fans. As at Bury two sides of the ground chocka with Rovers fans again. 12 games to go. You can start to smell it......

That heady aroma of champagne and creosote is starting to slowly drift in. The most pleasing aspect of today was winning while starting the day in first. Shrewsbury seem incapable of winning with the different pressure of leading the table. A trait I hope we have to avail of for the next 12 games. Wigan game is massive.
Bigdoggsteel Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Rich Sharp tweeted that Graham and Bennett were getting sick at half time. Bug going around the squad. Even more credit for the win. Heroes
JWUpper Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 To be fair to him I thought Evans actually turned up and had a decent game. Covered the ground, made some tackles and made a fair few forward moves. 1st half was one of the most dominant displays I’ve seen us put on this season. Well ground out result in the end, a very nervy last 20-25 minutes though. Full credit to the away support that kept the noise going for nearly the whole game. Their goal seemed to totally knock the stuffing out of us before half time though and barring a few half chances we didn’t really create anything in the 2nd half. Fingers crossed Dack is back for Tuesday and Smallwood doesn’t get booked!
West Yorks Rover Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 That's 1 defeat in 22 games W 13 D 8 L 1 if only we'd turned a couple of those draws into wins, I think this is going to the wire. Got to say well done to Rotherham, 7 straight wins, that's a record for the season in this league.

Roboftherovers82 Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Why did rotherham match have so much added time?

chaddyrovers Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Just spoken to TM and Danny Graham. DG and Elliott Bennett were throwing up at half-time. Mowbray felt #Rovers lacked energy in that second half but happy they got over the line. "vomiting continuously for the 15 minutes" was the exact phrase. Both from Rich Sharpe

I think it was because several players had to get treatment including Mulgrew and Samuel and one Walsall player.
OJRovers Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Good thing that Antonson is back, sounds like he will be needed.

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted February 24, 2018 Moderation Lead Posted February 24, 2018 Sounds like good first half bad second half from reports on here. Not pretty but we got the job done. The Wigan game next Sunday is massive. I might use alcohol as a coping mechanism that day. That’s never gone wrong before.....
blueboy3333 Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Terrific win. Keeps the pressure up. Graham is God!

Call a taxi for Mulgrew and keep him away from the infected! Wonder who patient zero was? probably Nyambe's agent
Gav Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Another one ticked off and another 3 points in the bag, you can't ask for anymore than that. Im surprised nobody is talk about the tremendous run we're on? 1 loss since October, or since Toms Mowbray out thread, I'm think of starting another one to see us up as champions. The support today, Fantastic, superb, a credit to the club and town and they bring home the 3 points. Onwards and upwards.
