Rovers vs Stoke City, 06/04/18, Ewood Park, 3pm Kick Off.

It has to change. It has to change. If I can bloody predict how a game is going to go off a predictable teamsheet, then it's no wonder the opposition can come to Ewood with some confidence. Not enough movement. Not enough creativity. Players out of position again and again.

Even our "best" player being out of the squad could have been an opportunity to play differently. But don't worry lads, Elliott Bennett can do anything. Now here comes Williams to shore us up at the back.

mosy teams all around us winning! It's going to be a nervy end to the season!

[G Somerset Rover]

Williams on ahead of Rodwell. He’s just trying to pee us off now surely.

A normal club would sack the manager, put the U23 manager in charge until the end of the season and take plenty of time getting the correct replacement. 

[Neal]

A league 1 manager, picking league 1 players, bringing us league 1 football. 

 

It's that simple. 

 

 

[philipl]

We have half a squad already at the club who are better than the eleven out there.

[jim mk2]

Go Mowbray go. I'm fed up of him ruining my weekends

[matt83]

I wonder if the Bennett lottery wheel has been out at half time for a random change. Centre mid, full back, number 10, who knows.

Don’t forget captain marvel. He’ll be our social media manager tonight too telling us all how hard they tried and how we’ll beat Derby. What a man.

Noticeable that when the ball ends up with Bennett or Smallwood, they slow down a tad. That bit of reaction time gets punished at this level

[Neal]

F*ck me, if Mowbray doesn't drop Armstrong right on Ashley Williams then it just confirms his lack of brains. He turns like the titanic. 

[benhben]

Only just seen the team sheet due to being out playing footy.

That line up even surpasses my own low expectations. Sky sports app has Bennett no 10 behind Graham. Small wood and Evans behind. Haha its almost comical its that Dull and predictable.

Someone get a taxi for mowbray. 

Awful  

 

[Lihamylly]

Williams for Charlie. Not sure if we just got better or worse.

[benhben]

Whats the fan reaction like in the ground. Cant be long before there are calls to go from the stands. 

[Husky]

I don't know why some are being so pissy. The sun is out FFS! Enjoy!?

[Tugay's Right Foot]

The consequence of having Bennett Smallwood and Evans is they are happy to pass it sideways when just outside the box. Someone take a crack at goal

Not unless they start a relegation playoff, though we would be automatic.

  Sorry lads n lassies but TO MO GOTTA GO.  Are we mathematically safe yet?  I said weeks back we could get relegated yet.  

[Gogger]

Our midfield bar Rothwell just refuses to make any offensive runs. Its crazy, at best we have two men withing 30 yards of opposition goal in open play.

Third change for Stoke. Dingle Vokes for Bojan. They lost Ince and Shawcross. Best chance to score against them

[jim mk2]

Burnley 3-1. 

Isn't football wonderful?

The consequence is, defeat after defeat after defeat after defeat. 3 awful footballers, who wont win you any football matches.

[bluebruce]

I wish Bennett would stop trying to make things happen when he reaches that area near the corner of the box. All his crosses have been awful and that shot was obviously a bad idea badly executed.

[Neal]

This is exactly the same as Preston, they scored with their first attack, we don't look like scoring. 

[matt83]

Are the rumours true that the stoke keeper has brought a hammock out for the 2nd half.
