I think he is just not good enough

Eh, it's not his position and he is still learning the ropes with his first taste of men's football. I'm not writing him off yet. But I absolutely don't want to see him wide.

Cunningham on iFollow still sounding very much a Rover, nevermind what Neil Harris had to say in the week 

If we sign him in January,it would be adding quality to quality. I'd say he wants to move from Cardiff back to Lancashire.

Noblot 2-2 but agreed

Who are the Nobs again? I'm getting confused.

What a great win 

Tosin absolutely Danny Shittu’d it, no way past him 

Nyambe immense 

Travis was awful, lost everything but Evans covered and no harm done

Nobbers = pne

noblot = bolton.

I have always had a feeling that the deal was loan to perm. Wouldnt say no as long as he makes a good recovery.

Have to say that this was a great win and performance, but Mowbray really made things difficult with his subs.

Brings Gallagher on for Graham, but puts him on the right.

Brings Bennett on for Rothwell, but puts him at left back and moves Downing further up.

Brings the youngest player on the bench for the last 5 minutes when we have a narrow 1-0 lead, rather than someone with a bit more experience like Holtby.

 

Oh Tony! Even when you get it right you try to get it wrong. Probably a good reason why we won't go up. His subs have cost us before and it looks like the temptation to mix things up is still there. At least he hasn't succumbed to doing it with the first 11. 

Good win and a great run. For all the squad frailties and player inconsistencies there's also a rather good team in there as well which is encouraging. Surprised Holtby didn't come on as we seemed to have final ball issues and his composure would've helped. The next 2 games are real challenges for us but we aren't staring into the abyss as we were before which must help the nerves going into some tricky games. 

[Tom]

I would send Buckley on loan, can’t see any time I would bring him on ahead of Holtby, looked lost in his cameo

[JacknOry]

I like this winning feeling. Might pop back over to the Derby forums in a bit for a bit of moaning - they were pretty awful without half of Chelseas reserve team.

Swansea and Bristol away next.

Get through those games with 4 points and then 3 winnable games to complete 2019.

DO NOT TINKER TONY.

SAME TEAM AGAIN PLEASE.

Can only imagine that he’s saving Holtby for the coming fixtures as we have a 3 game week.

Didnt see this last two weeks coming. I was all for Mowbray’s sacking in the middle of Nov but you can’t knock the turnaround. 2 points off top 6. Crazy. Well played.

[frosty]

Well done Rovers! Tosin colossal.

It's Notlob, they are backward

I'd say Holtby might start the next game instead of Rothwell

I love the fact that I didn't expect us to concede at 1 up

They're also a lot of nobs though, so you can see the confusion.

He was in a tracksuit near the family stand unless he went into games room like some of the players do

Good performance today. Deserved a larger margin of victory. Thought back four all played well. Downing played some great balls today

Absolutely, those days seem to be firmly behind us. 

Tough games coming up though, Bristol away in particular, they just did Fulham on their travels.

[Nelsonthedog]

Wish we could score more goals, but well done. The defence getting us results.

yeah we could do with tonking somebody, our GD is so out of tune with everyone else around us.

We could still win promotion this way, but it's not easy on the nerves..

[Preben]

Surely promotion would be a disaster, we are nowhere near ready

We got relegated on GD, i would not like the feeling of then going and missing out on the playoffs on GD.
