Rovers v Derby - 6pm, Friday 16th

[simongarnerisgod]

if we somehow win this,mowbray will be insufferable in his press conference🙄

[1864roverite]

That’s a poor miss by Armstrong

[Dan]

iFollow “Harwood-Bellis is on a one man mission to keep Derby out”

yep, the other 10 don’t look too fussed. 

[RevidgeBlue]

Good touch from Holtby through to Armstrong.

He has to score there.

[Dan]

OMG “it’s hard to put your finger on it”

 

FFS it’s really not. 

[VenkysRuinedMyLife]

I hate to downplay the difficulty of being a professional but I bet those of you who play football manager could run the club better.

For heaven's sake change the team, we're second best to every ball

Did anyone notice the almost complete lack of team celebration when Gallagher scored. Armstrong just trotted back to the half way line!

Yep. The closeup on Gallagher showed he wasn't really arsed either.

Can’t do that until after 60 minutes. Its a Tony rule. He probably doesn’t usually worry about the time ticking away, he doesn’t look at the clock, maybe. 

[Roverinbelfast]

For me Mowbray had enough credit in the bank to see this season through and walk away with his head held high. If that doesn't happen then he is taking the piss

As in not quite as bad as Brown.

There isn't much in it though.

Expand  

Ahh that makes a lot more sense. Would still disagree, he is ten times the player Brown was.

Which is to say, still not good enough. Hard to judge him properly from a position he is incredibly poorly suited for though.

[Giant]

Elliott is a liability when he’s in our half. No idea how to play in his own half.

He’s probably thinking “those BRFCS wankers will still be saying I’m shit, even though I’ve shown great heading ability for a pacy winger!”

[Angry_Pirate]

Armstrong knows you're allowed to round the goalkeeper? Seriously.

We are a few months into that territory i'm afraid.

[davulsukur]

Sounds like Armstrong is pushing up the xG stats.

👍

[1864roverite]

Another chance goes begging

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Arma should have had a hat-trick by now.

He probably knew he was going to get a bollocking for daring to score from a set piece. Arma will give him a few towel flicks in the shower later.

[bluebruce]

Not Arma's day in front of goal.

[matt83]

This team is the epitome of Mowbray. That said I reckon with these exact same players properly motivated and properly managed could be top 6 (not relegation battle).

Yes.

The commentators would probably be making more of it had all the chances not been on top of one another.

[simongarnerisgod]

possesion stats are nearly level,which will infuriate tony so much,they`ll be in for extra training on sunday,"those ****** free kicks when you launched it in the box,i don`t give a **** we scored from it,thats not part of the game plan,no one listens to me thats part of the problem,if you did as i say,we`de have 95% possesion and be top of the expected goal list,you bunch of ***** are spoiling it"

Which means of course he will score a brace, to the delight of all the arse licking Mowbray apologists who will crawl like crusty leeches from his oily orifice, should we win...

[dallydally]

Elliott has been Sh1t again! Awful touch. And now he scores!
