Goal then disallowed

Rovers have a goal disallowed

Maybe save the conspiracy theories for Sunday morning 

Not really a conspiracy theory, the manager has already said in past interviews he has certain players he trusts to lead the dressing room - and we know those players aren't criticised publicly. Armstrong is young but it's possible he's one of them.

WBA's defence is there for the taking, but then so is ours, so this could end with any score.

[Husky]

We were never going to get that goal as soon as it hit the bar.

The ref has been poor all game giving the home side everything.

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Buckley and Rothwell changed the game. Abit pointless crossing from the right by people like Bennett though. Looks dangerous but no one attacking. Should try slipping buckley in when possible

[philipl]

Rovers pulled the possession stats back dramatically in first ten minutes of this half.

It was 100% the right decision.

Walton flapping again

According to Sharpe more energy and won more tackles in 6 minutes of 2nd half then previous 45 minutes. What did he say??

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Christ.bennett miscues an overhead clearance. Armstrong went down the other end and got hauled down. Could have been a red for their defender

[Tugay-is-God]

Oooof so close, Downing off the post

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Shot against the post bY Downing

[Reedy You're A Star]

Soo close.. Good effort Downing.

[darrenrover]

There's nothing to choose between Lutwieler or Walton: in fact IMO the Canadian is least worst - that's a sad indictment.

Ludicrous to bin Raya but that's history!

[Bigdoggsteel]

Playing some great stuff. Deserve to be at least drawing. 

We look like a far better footballing team than last season. No doubt about that 

[Bigdoggsteel]

If Mowbray gets all the blame when we concede, why doesn't he get any credit when we play good football and score?

I suppose it's the same at most clubs 

[TruRover]

Doesn’t seem like it’s gonna happen for us today

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Great counter from West Brom, Bennett was out of position. Fortunate that the shot sailed pver

Tbf we haven't often played good football under Mowbray so there hasn't been much historical reason to praise that. Also no point playing well and scoring if you concede as many if not more at the other end. It's nice that we're playing better football this half, but we haven't scored yet and unfortunately our first half performance has given us a hill to climb. 

[philipl]

West Brom coming back into it strongly now. We need another big push.

[Tugay-is-God]

Beautiful turn there by Buckley.

He's really grown into this one, just got a touch of quality about him.

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Buckley and Travis have been impressive.

[Tugay's Right Foot]

Diabolical crossing from the right. When we don’t have headers of the ball, why not try Low hard fast crosses, more dangerous that way

If we score to make it 3-3 this half I'm sure you'll see plenty. So far this half Buckley and Rothwell have been good subs. Brave, but seems to be working so far. Would personally bring Armstrong off for Graham and give them something else to think about up top for the last 15 minutes.
