bluebruce Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 You know what, with how bad these refs have been on top of everything else, it's a fucking miracle we are where we are. 1 Quote

Trinidad Rover Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Excellent fighting win despite a poor performance. Defence was rock solid. Does anyone else think Travis is incredibly limited? Really stands out in a strong technical team. Not sure he’s all that, have the ball away so many times today. 5 Quote

Thought Gallagher was absolutely shocking when he came on, couldn't hold the ball up, made the wrong decision with his passes, didn't put their defenders under any pressure, and managed to get himself booked with a clumsy challenge. He wasn't on his own in being below par today though. 1 Quote
Ricky Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Bristol city score at Fulham. Now a win for them would make it a bloody good day for us. 7 Quote
slowmo Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 6 minutes ago, Dan said: Definitely. How many times in the past have we played well and got nothing from a match. Ugly wins are good wins. It’s almost like we’ve gone back to basics, being hard to beat and being able to win games with a flash of good play. We haven’t been able to do this since Sparky was manager and Nelson was captain. I know it’s the hope that kills you, but it’s hard not to be thrilled at the moment. ARTE ET LABORE! It's this period ' The Underdogs ' which I still picture Rovers as ( Souness/ Hughes), rather than the title winning period and the Venkys. I'm hoping Zeefuik will bring some bite 1 Quote

If you can soak up the pressure experiencing pressure is no problem. In terms of scoring goals if our forwards had picked better final passes we would have scored second half. Cardiff didn't carve us open in the way we did to them on the break. The defence really is the foundation of a football team and we have an outstanding one at this level. How we get there I don’t care. 1 Quote
davulsukur Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 The lack of RoversTV frustrated me and the kids wanted to go out, so didn't keep up with the last 30mins or so. Great to see an away win, I'll take a 0-1 battling performance anyday. Shame Nyambe was sent off. I guess we'll see how good Zeefuick is sooner rather than later! Quote
oldjamfan1 Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) As things stand Burnley are bottom of the Prem and we are joint top of the championship. If Carlsberg did league tables…. Edited January 15, 2022 by oldjamfan1 9 Quote
Hasta Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 The first booking is a bit ridiculous by the ref, but Nyambe was stupid for the second yellow. 2 Quote
Dreams of 1995 Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) That NG - be cheap to have him on your shirt - made a meal of the tackle. You saw him peaking at the ref and once the red came out he popped straight back up. Id be embarrassed if I did that, especially on camera. He was a little drama Queen all game so you can imagine my joy when he was the one to mess their play up in the last 5 mins. Shit player, enjoy the relegation scrap King Ryan Nyambe Edited January 15, 2022 by Dreams of 1995 2 Quote
bluebruce Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) Unreal to see Bristol beating Fulham at the cottage, after they just mauled Reading away. Probably won't last, but great for now! If they do somehow lose I will have to conclude that winning 7-0 away is the worst thing you can do. Edited January 15, 2022 by bluebruce 1 Quote
roversfan99 Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Not a good performance in many ways and so many individuals had shockers yet its all about results and a superb defensive shift put in, all about those 3 points. Edun looks really out of place, Brereton as poor as he has been all season, Buckley poor, Travis very off colour and Gallagher with as bad a cameo as you are likely to see. Lenihan, Wharton and Van Hecke all very good, and Kaminski faultless. Nyambe red card perhaps slightly harsh but still foolish from him, both the shove and the late foul. 3 Quote
Tugay-is-God Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Fulham equalise, of course. Think they'll end up comfortably top of the table. 2 Quote

Pickering has been such an upgrade! Can't help but feel we've missed him last couple of games. Edited January 15, 2022 by oozy 4 Quote
had.e.nuff Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 is it just the one game ban for Nyambe Quote
1864roverite Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Yes and Bristol C have scored again 1 Quote

SuperBrfc Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Just had an email from Rovers TV to say that £10 has been refunded to my account. They ruined the enjoyment of the game, but at least they've resolved this issue in a quick fashion. 5 Quote
arbitro Posted January 15, 2022 Posted January 15, 2022 Games like today can sometimes define seasons as we had to show a different set of skills to the ones of recent months. We didn't play well at all but ground out a result with some determined, resolute defending which will stand us in good stead for the rest of the season. We needed the back three to be good today and they were with Kaminski solid behind them. When the circumstances demanded we go to a back five we were equally as good. What was really pleasing was the defending of set pieces which has often behind Achilles Heel under Mowbray. I have a little worry about the form of a few players but with a solid base and ability to keep clean sheets we are giving ourselves a chance. 4 Quote

You say Breretons been poor all season??.... Ok I can agree Brereton has been Brereton 2022 but I hope he will rediscover Diaz on wednesday night. Quote

We're notoriously crap as soon as the Sky cameras roll into town! We need Dacky back. He always turned it on for the cameras. 1 Quote
