[Archived] Rovers v Peterborough

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

That was bloody awful.  Second best all over.  Too many off their game.  Lennihan is having a 'mare.  Lack of genuine width a killer.  Evans or Smallwood need hooking and Payne on.

[Bigdoggsteel]

I would snap both your hands off for a draw now 

Deep routed issues though. That performance is more than worrying 

[bluefred]

Mulgrew nearly cost us a second goal aswell

[jim mk2]

No changes ??????

[G Somerset Rover]

No subs. Way to go Tony; guess we were playing so well.

[Rover_Shaun]

2-1 full time?

Who'd have put money on Utd beating City?

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Do we have downing to come in and lenighan to go RB?

[DE.]

Evans and Smallwood DO NOT WORK as a central midfield pairing. We can all see that. The only reason for not putting Bennett there is assumedly because Mowbray feels like he has no choice but to play him at RB - but then why the hell did we sign Caddis if he isn't good enough to play there? At the very least Bennett should be playing right wing because Armstrong is an atrocious winger. Another thing Mowbray persists with even though it is not working. 

If we lose this then Mowbray needs to shake things up in a huge way. Williams out and Bell in. Antonsson sent back to Leeds, Payne in for the rest of our remaining games. Release Evans and put Tomlinson in there, can't be any worse. 

This isn't working. Massive improvement needed in the second half.

Just now, LDRover said:

Got to be braver on the ball. Drive at the heart of them at pace rather than taking the easy pass sideways. Tuck the 2 wide men in rather than playing them as wingers which they aint. Get Dack closer to Graham and get the ball into his feet. Finally, get Williams off.

Exactly my thinking. Commentary keeps going on about the space we get down their left when their RB attacks but so what? Even if Antonnsson beats his man he has Graham to aim at only or take a shot. They are probably telling their LB to bomb on as they know we aint good from wide.

A draw would take us 6 points clear with a far better GD meaning Shrews would need two wins and a draw to overtake us if we don't get another point after tonight (entirely plausible on tonight's performance)

A draw would be a great result from here.

[G Somerset Rover]

They’re doing us down our left side EVERY TIME.

Wake up Mowbray!!!!

[AAK]

No subs? @#/? off 

[den]

We’re simply being outnumbered in midfield

[davulsukur]

It took us just 14 seconds to revert to being w@nk in the 2nd half.

[Joar]

Soooo much room for P'boro

[Bigdoggsteel]

Williams closes his eyes going for headers. Cowardly 

[SoldierMo]

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Dack simply not in this game...as are most of our players.

[jim mk2]

[Bigdoggsteel]

[SoldierMo]

[ChrisPriceBaldSpot]

Well a lot of us didn't wanna go ahead!!!! 

[G Somerset Rover]

Williams and Antonsson couldn’t beat an egg let alone a man.

Edit: what did I tell you all? Thank me later.

[SoldierMo]
