Nyambe has been excellent today, I’m coming to realize that we’ll really miss his energy and wit if he goes for free. I think we could be winning this game if we had a striker on, Buckley just no good up there. Get BBD on and see what happens. 

He doesn’t take the man on enough

[AllRoverAsia]

I've moved from Sky to ESPN. Cant be any worse.

 

[Tom]

We’ve really over achieved based on some of our performances this season, grit, determination, organisation and a chunk of luck has got us through. 
 

We rarely dominate teams but we are still in with a shot, could really do with results in games like this though 

[Doogs]

Crap

[Devon Rover]

We are making one of the worst teams in the division look like they know what they are doing. It's so frustrating. 

[bluebruce]

What a tackle

[TheRoversReturn]

Get BBD on, Tone...we're throwing this game away.

They're shit but we have the guy who just scored against the South American champions on the bench...

You think Buckley or McBride would have done anything today? I don't. 

Chapman, Butterworth, McBride and Burns are all young Rovers forwards who have been invested in for several years. I'd rather they were played in a forward role rather than on loan full backs. At least one should have been retained as back up.

[Tormund]

Wheyyyyy ref

[ItsRoverZ]

He really needs to make the changes quick time.. BBD and khadara on could swing this game in our favour

Buckley not at the game. Would have banged that one in normally but wasn't sharp enough or wasn't thinking. He's been booked so that will be on his mind. Need to take him off.

There's not much evidence he would have banged that in normally. He has fluffed plenty before.

[Cherry Blue]

playing against 10

 

[Tormund]

If we can’t win this now then wow

[DE.]

Swansea down to ten. Won't get a better opportunity to turn this around.

[West Yorks Rover]

Red for Swans ?

[Aqualung]

Swansea down to 10 men. 

[G Somerset Rover]

Get in!!!

Now get Buckley off FFS so the ref doesn’t look to level things up.

[yellowsubmarine]

Red card for Swans. Get the duo on now!

[Displaced Rover]

Think that’s harsh tbh. If that had happened to one of our players we’d have been annoyed.

[Tugay-is-God]

Come on, we need this. 

[TheRoversReturn]

They're down to ten men! We MUST go for the win now...

Surely if BBD can play for half an hour then he'll be fine for 45 minutes too. 

How tired can he be? He's 22 years old and been sat on his arse for the last hour, I'm sure he can run up and down the pitch a little bit, ffs.

Butterworth isn't up to it. He doesn't fancy Chapman. McBride and Burns are better served getting consistent game time than playing 10 minutes every fortnight.

[moerpho]

Now will you please put on some firepower, Tony?!! 

[bluebruce]

Manning just won me a fiver. Popped a quid on at half time for someone to be sent off. Wish I'd been more ambitious. Hopefully that's enough for us to open the door now.

[Silas]

Hope Darragh's head is ok? 😀
