philipl Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Well we saw an exceptional performance from one person on the field- exceptionally bad from the ref. Quite how we got all those yellows and Luton none but the run of decisions against us after we had equalised was something else. Yes we finished strongly but pretty mediocre for the rest of the match. Two points casually tossed away and I am putting them against Mowbray who did a pretty bad job setting us up for that game Quote

Miller11 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Outrageous reffing at the end, but all in all a pretty abject performance. Hard to understand how we only made two subs (one of which was enforced) when Mowbray has been loudly complaining up until now about the limit being back to three, especially when we were playing pretty poorly too. 2 Quote

Ossydave Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Wasn't a spectacle, but it happens every single time after internationals and not sure why i ever expect any different. Many poor games. Glad to see Brereton giving it both barrels to the ref, he would never have done that last season and just accepted it with a wimper . The coverage was so crap I lost interest in parts. Must do better on Tuesday, hopefully we will without their cup final fans in attendance. 5 Quote

No disrespect to Luton but you know what I mean. Agreed. And going beyond one game when the likes of Millwall, Luton, Barnsley and Preston are all above us, you really have to question what the manager is doing with his resources. , Quote

I agree that we should be aiming to beat Luton Town in any era! Quote

Blue blood Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Just now, Paul Mellelieu said: He got WBA promoted. Ince got MK Dons promoted. Coyle got Burnley promoted. All managers, if they don't sink after a stint at a single club generally have one success on their CV. It's what gives them a bit of longevity. As it is 1 prior promotion doesn't prove much. And whilst I think he is better than the ones I've mentioned, I don't think TM is far superior or a huge upgrade. 1 Quote

I listened to Radio Lancs and their co commentator Mick Payne was full of praise of Rovers second half performance and Brereton. Was he wrong? Quote
Exiled in Toronto Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Pretty rubbish performance. Lenihan done as usual for the goal, Rothwell brilliant until final ball time, Elliott never hides and a sublime chip that led to the goal, Johnson/Trybull made Evans look good, Ben our main threat in the second half. Need a winning run before Crimbo. 2 Quote

New Jeru Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Does anyone know if our corner routines ever work in training? We seem to pass an awful lot of them short and then to the edge of the area, but it never seems to work. Quote

We did show intent to attack, in the last 5 mins or so, spoilt by some aimless punts Just now, chaddyrovers said: Pleased that Gallagher scored He did well. Put himself in the mix and won the battle for the ball. At last showed a strikers instinct. Quote

Gallagher does look more useful as a sub tbh, maybe sitting watching games beforehand let's him see where he can nip in for a goal. 1 Quote
rigger Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 I am pleased about two things today. I have not wasted money on i-follow or a season ticket. Quote

Cherry Blue Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 TM on radio just said "strange referee decisions........we move on......it's finished now". Not the rant about bad referees I wanted to hear but that's TM. Shame because there's a manager off J10 who would have ruffled a few feathers but that's not TM style. Quote
tomphil Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Have to say what iv'e seen and heard of Trybul so far he's like a poorer version of Evans. I guess that's why he's here though so they can continue to carry Corry through his injuries and International career. Yet another that Mowbray has an umbilical chord attached to by the looks of it.

He was good against Swansea tbf till he came off. I don't think the balance ever looks right without Holtby though if I'm honest, or, eventually Trav 1 Quote

Is that possible? And yes Evans should have been gone a long time ago. Quote

BB was actually fouled quite a bit today and did less of his poorly executed diving. I think the Ref had formed his views prior to the match. He was atrocious. What enjoyment can there be in being so fecking awful. Quote
