Rovers vs Owls Boxing Day 3pm through a Socially Distanced Looking Glass

[G Somerset Rover]

Defending yet again like something out of a primary school match. How. Many. Times.

We truly are awful. Can only hope it pushes Mowbray closer to the exit door if we lose but I of course will not hold my breathe.

[davulsukur]

Pulis' wet dream this.

Give the opposition all the possession, score, sit back and close ranks, win 0-1.

We're actually losing. 75% possession though so thats good. 

Possession is misleading , when it is going side ways and backwards ..

[Hannoverover]

Great goal. Douglas and Ayala mess up partly due to them not playing together regularly. That's being kind to two professional defenders and leaders though....

 

Surely we will be more adventurous and get a goal or two in the second half

What a shitty first half from Rovers.

Under pressure now to bring Dack and Brereton on to dig us out at home against bottom place Sheffield Wednesday. 

That's the reality. 

Sick of the commentators constanly saying we are dominating whilst losing games. Like seriously, shut up and call it for the shite it is

I was taking the piss

[RevidgeBlue]

The goal was somewhat out of the blue but in general we've been absolutely dire as well. One shot "on target" Armstrong's pea-roller from outside the box?

If Kaminsky goes for that shot with his right arm instead of the wrong arm he makes a relatively routine save imo.

Gallagher is so bad it's embarrassing. It's like the manager is deliberately trying to **** us off now.

**** off Tony.

 

[bazza]

Terrible Rovers again. Watching paint dry and then one mistake and 1-0 down.

Header out for a throw by Gallagher 

We are a horrible, toothless tippy tappy bunch of pussies 

Every match we overplay it to the point of losing the ball then concede because of an awful defence who look like they haven't played together before.

[Cherry Blue]

A well taken goal but yet again Tony Mowbray defending was pathetic and as a former defender yourself you should have rectified this problem years ago. 

Another frustrating game. 

[AdamRochina]

Still people  that defend mowbray out there and I don't know why or how.  The guys a clueless fool

[neophox]

Douglas is one of the worst players Ive seen.

If there’s a team you don’t want to be losing 1-0 to it’s a Tony Pulis team.

I bet Mowbray won’t even make a change at the break.

[Hoochie Bloochie Mama]

74% possession. 1 shot on target. Losing. 

Classic Mowbray. 

[dallydally]

Mid table at best. Said it before and I'll say it again. Not one effort on goal despite the lion's share of possession. Diabolical

[joey_big_nose]

Classic rovers, total and utter domination without actually looking like scoring, one bit of terrible defending (Douglas again...) and we are 1-0 down.

Gallagher has to come off, he's worked against us. Anyone of Dolan, Dack or Brereton on. Otherwise team has played pretty well apart from Douglas but not really sure Bell would be any better.

 

 

[Tom]

That goal is on Mowbray, Douglas has been responsible for a goal in every other game recently yet he's still picking him, Ayala shares the blame but it's just awful

[SoldierMo]

Fek off mowbray

He will say we were playing well and had more possession 

It's getting silly 

[TheRoversReturn]

Did we have one decent chance in 45 minutes? We're crying out for something different yet Chapman, Davenport and Dolan are on the bench.

Beautiful football though*

*According to Mowbray’s fan boys and the media.

[philipl]

Mowbray has set this team up all wrong for that first half.

Let's see if he can correct it now.

We are certainly the better of the two sides and should be capable of turning this around.

74% possession has only generated 7 shots of which 1 was on target.

Powder puff stuff..

[yellowsubmarine]

Holtby has been very poor. Slows down our play.

For once, for once, i thought Lenihan had a commanding game so far with Ayala.

I cant see how Douglas is an upgrade from Bell.

Gallagher as usual worked his socks off but has sandbags tied to his feet.

Why do we make Sheff Wed seems like that they are so hard to break down?
