v Sheff Utd (h) - 6/11/21 - 146th Birthday

[WacoRover]

Great answer by Rovers today. I dunno if it was players response, Mowbray’s tinkering or both, but great response, lads. 

[Tom]

The perfect Tonic.

Credit to the manager on the changes that paid dividends, credit all the players on a superb performance and credit to the fans who never seemed like turning

Buckley played so well today, shame he could not score

Had such a good game in the attacking midfield role his passing is first class

[Armchair supporter supremo]

what are the odds it can't resist a dig at the fans and making it all about him during his aftermatch interviews 

 

Mowbray out

Waggot out

A great battling performance from the lads today could have been 5 or 6

[CambridgeRover]

Great win, opinion unchanged on Mowbray.

Great to see the loanees contribute and buckley had his best game all season. Defense shaky but much better in attack.

[booth]

Good win but nothing will change, anything could happen against Bristol.

I'd usually be ecstatic to get in the play off zone but been bitten too many times.

[neophox]

This Sheff U side were awful but in the same time Brereton was world class......

 

[AllRoverAsia]

Good win. Good performance. In truth it could easily have been 6-4 to us.

First timers got a treat today and hopefully some will become new long termers.

Well done to all, even Mowbray, it was a good show.

Tbf he deserves credit for today

[DE.]

Probably one of the best teams we could have faced after our midweek result. A bit like United facing Spurs after getting humiliated by Liverpool. 

6th 😅 what a division this is. 

[oldjamfan1]

Great win today. However, we won’t be in the top six for very long - in fact just until the end of the Donkey Lashers game later.

[jim mk2]

17,000 on today ......... 11,000 from Sheffield?

10 teams in the middle separated by 3 points

Rovers in 6th means very little

[neophox]

Cardiff and Coventry with late late winners...

[matt83]

A pathetic division. Rovers are shite and sit in 6th. There’s some shit teams above us. The ones below…Jesus wept. 

[neophox]

Were one of the best attacking sides...at the same time one of the worst defensively...sort it out -> promotion.

Just proves that whenever Mowbray is feeling the pressure he stops pissing about and gets a result. Be great if we had owners who put him under the kind of pressure a football manager would normally have.

Why do people think he’s under this imaginary pressure? Seems like wishful thinking if anything. Fulham result apart I’m pretty sure there’s no great pressure, certainly not after today.

We’re in 6th, remember?

If you want to talk about managers under pressure, look no further than today’s opponents.

Bloody brilliant performance overall. Fans were MAGNIFICENT ❤️

[neophox]

Scott Wharton coming through 90 minutes and now a long breather....

Probably Ayala and Gally back along with Rankin-Costello after international break...will be competition for places..

Means we are 16 places above relegation 

[Beanie01289]

Brereton is such a weird one seems to bundle his way through things but still know where the ball is like a lower version of suarez 

[matt83]

What formation did they play in the end?

I'm not the one forgetting anything, we lost 7-0 days ago. Any manager would feel pressure after that.

He does, I’ve been as critical as most of Mowbray at times during his tenure but if you can’t give credit when it’s due you instantly lose any argument.

Today he succeeded in his job as manager

Just realised we'll be 7th regardless of tonight's result between Blackpool and QPR.

Yep, so make the most of the next couple of hours!
