Rovers v West Brom 1 Jan 2019

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

0-0 half time. Standard.

Let's hope we buck the last 10 mins syndrome.

[Al]

Central mid should be Reed Travis and Rothwell/Rodwell.

The red button needs refurbed tho, no replays, dull commentary. If your going to do it, then do it right not half arsed. Looks and feels like a training session the way they have it currently

Better not!

First twenty mins we were best team and should have been 2 up. Since then not much to report. Bell and Bennett give me the willies at full back. Armstrong frustrating. Travis very good, don't loan him out!!

[ChrisPriceBaldSpot]

Travis Reed and Davenport should be the future in the middle of the park for us. 

We need a hero in the second half. 

COYB give us some new year cheer.

Mostly it's just what IFollow get, reasonable only from those Clubs with inhouse tv stations.

I hope not too but means it frees the place back up for one of his favourites.

As things stand, we are 16th 10 points off 6th and 10 points above 22nd.

If West Brom win, they are currently going 2nd.

Travis is class, his athleticism alone puts him above Smallwood and Evans but he’s also turning defence into attack 

Too early to say, but he has abit of Lampard in his style of play.

[Tom]

Great start but we’ve got more nervous as it’s gone on, some of our decision making at the back is scary!

Graham should have scored at least one I’d be tempted to change him for Brereton soon 

Both left wingers have the beating of their full back but their guy seems to make the right decision more than Arma

Think we’ll win this one, won’t be easy mind!

I just think he’s fearless, he’ll make mistakes for sure but who doesn’t in this team; he deserves a run there now nobody else is exactly demanding that spot

Bit more kick and rush by Arma now that his full back is on a yellow should get us some joy.

[davulsukur]

Did we line up in a 4-3-3 formation?

[Blueandwhitemike]

 

Like others have said Travis looks good, he's quite similar to Reed, nicking balls off others' toes but also knows how to pass forward more than Evans or Smallwood.

Armstrong hasn't done much this season but did use his pace well a couple of times, I think Rothwell offers more.    

West Brom have threatened occasionally and will score if we don't, need a bit more urgency and a bit more quality second half.

All I can say with certainty is we have 10 playing out field.

Probably Mowbray's favoured 4 - 3.5 - 2.5  

[jim mk2]

Reasonable first half but we know the script.  Subs around 70 minute mark who make us worse followed by Rovers conceding late on

[davulsukur]

Bring on the collapse.....

Before they started putting more games on the red button there was occasionally 'Sky type coverage' on iFollow. I remember watching a couple of games where there were replays and more than the one camera.

That seems to have gone now.

[Husky]

Does anyone else feel we're into an era that's the complete opposite of when Groundhog Gaz was in charge?

Thinking, please, please don't make any subs Tony.

[Stuart]

That. Was. Brilliant.

[Husky]

Goooooooooollllll!

[Tom]

Just said I’d have Mulgrew in the box not taking corners and he plants it in the top corner 

He achieved what Gamst wanted to! Twice!

Brilliant!
