Dack is a chubster

Giving Dack a new contract before knowing if he was ever going to be able to play at a decent level again could be one of the worst decisions this lot have made, however popular that decision was.

got to keep his possession  stats up

We will win in the end we have 65%of the ball.
It will end 3-1 possession wins matches.

Can't remember ever under Mowbray starting the second half with any real urgency or desire to get back into the game or try and win it.

Do you blame them?

TM - half time chat.

I work hard lads, I've been here since 7am and now I'm doing overtime because you lot want to play a match. I don't even get time and a half, you lot need to work as hard as me. I only see my family 2 days a week and you lot can't even run...... And on...

Rothwell's been Ok, wouldn't have taken him off. Elliott's had a stinker

Well. 

I'd say that goal was just a symptom of the system we are set up to play.  There was no movement for him so back he goes.  It could have been any of our midfielders getting their pockets picked heading back towards our goal.   

 

Worse than the goal though was watching us go from the edge of their area 3-4m from the byline and play it all the way back to our box.

 

Absoloutely appalling.

Mowbray out.

Like we’re run by a center back that’s never known what do do up there

Usual scapegoat., Nyambe off next for Bennett.

How can Tony watch this guff week in and week out and then have the cheek to say we're playing well? It boggles the mind.

The thought that's kept going through my mind this weekend is that, if Quality Control in the main part of our owners' 'Empire' is as abysmal as it is in our part, thank goodness I don't eat their chickens!

Kinnell! Tony’s stood up!

Pressure might actually be on, he's been more animated than normal (normally he's as active as a corpse)

[DeeCee]

Least it's only one, stay up on goal difference.

[Sparks Rover]

That's the biggest 10yds I've ever seen

aye,a centre back who`s never been able to sort a defence out either

[Angry_Pirate]

Seeing 3 players standing over a free kick as we have only 4 in the box, really fucks me off.

Good job we brought on our free kick specialist Downing. 

[1864roverite]

Poor absolute poor

[CambridgeRover]

Downing just took down a low flying plane with that free kick

It was never going in either.  Pair of blaggers.

I'm so so glad I dont pay time and money to watch on ifollow every week. If given the choice I'd pay 20 quid to not have to watch it.

Downings height above the crossbar? 🤔

Listening to Keith Andrews makes me ill

[jim mk2]

Why is Dack playing so far back ? Is he a holding midfield player now?

It happens to players when they get old or become less mobile.

It's what ISIS used for torture purposes, coupled with watching Rovers play and match sticks holding the eyes open.

Tony is looking a lot more animated tonight. Wonder if he has been told it’s last chance saloon (wishful thinking and I know very unlikely)

[RevidgeBlue]

How did Trybull get a free kick there after Dolan gave him the ball and he lost it?

Terrible player.
