v Hull City (a) - 29/10/22

[Northcote blues]

Great win that. Travis superb, Vale put himself about well in his cameo. Up the blues

[booth]

Most wins in the league. Injuries aplenty and sitting in second place. Nice.

[ItsRoverZ]

We addressed the defence majorly in the summer, build from the back and you give yourself a big chance ..defence sorted (maybe JpVH in to replace the ageing ayala)

Just add a goal scoring and a battling midfielder and we are really cooking with gas

Dont you just hate “90 +” in your life.  That is where heartbreak normally resides  Not today though👏

Starting to feel bad for Brero, give the lad a rest.

He's been taken off early a lot recently - sadly, like Kaminski, he's one of our indispensable players and has to play when fit.

For their good points, we used to concede more than our fair share of late goals under both Bowyer and Mowbray. It's going to take a while to get that out of our system!

Something Bucko could only dream of...where is he today?

You just can't help your fuckin self can you? Bucko was by far and away our best midfielder last season. But hey ho he's not hit form this season so rightfully gets dropped. So Sparks writes yet another off of our Academy graduates. Fuck me you should be manager of England and write everybody off after a few  iffy games if they're not playing well or lost their confidence. Un fucking believable

[moerpho]

Win! Again! And a perfect one as well: Away from home, no yellow cards causing suspension, no injuries, clean sheet, Kaminsky not really tested, good runout for Ayala and Hyam awesome again, showing confidence and trust in the manager….Adam Wharton makes me feel the same buzz I had with Duff. 
 

I’m using the table as wallpaper on my phone at least untill tuesday. This feels better than last season. COYB!!!

[roverandout]

Hey Mowbray this is how u manage a good set of players 

[Miller11]

Very happy with how we saw the game out. Could’ve been 4-0 on another day. I think the subs were clever and were clearly made as we decided to hold the lead rather than expand on it. Ayala made us look much more solid, nice to see Dack and Vale doing their bit for the team too.

[des]

Watched the match first half played well we have to learn to take our chances second half  under pressure a bit more but still should of scored at least one still another three points and still near the top

[G Somerset Rover]

Wharton’s pass was just superb. He is going to bring in some serious money for us one day. I just hope he’s in a Rovers shirt for a while yet.

He’ll get a nice long rest during the World Cup

John Dory and a lovely white to celebrate four in a row.

Wonderful Rovers.

It's a massive test this one, especially with Hedges and Brittain being out.

Hull are capable of banging a few goals in as they've shown in recent games.

Despite the above I'm going for a nervy 1-0 away win and soiled undies all round. Sam Gallagher the scorer.

Almost spot on 🤨

Surprised how little Hull threatened us really, but that's perhaps at least partly down to the relentless press from every man in blue and white.

The players are really buying into the JDT philosophy and it's starting to show. Mr Dack hats off, worked his damn socks off and will 100% have thrown his hat in the ring to be involved more now. Szmodics again a warrior, Vale too doing bits. Travis did well for the most part although went wandering out of position a few times. Ayala looked like he'd never been away from the team the beast. Scotty as reliable as ever when called upon, Hyam too.

If you had to pick fault today it would be Gallys finishing, Diaz looking a bit tired and some silly showboating by the young lads in midfield, that's being picky though, I'm happy as F.

I'm not sure where this need for a 'battling midfielder' has come from - we have Travis and Garrett for that role. We either need Buckley to pull his socks up or Wharton to be able to play 90 minutes. We're absolutely a different team when we have two ball playing midfielders on the pitch.

Personally I hope he takes us to the Premier League and keeps us there, becoming our 10+ year talisman. 

[BankEnd Rover]

Hull were terrible.

However…Jack Vale…outstanding. Biggest impact he’s had for us. I never thought he’s be much good after getting bullied by QPRs CBS on the first game.

He will certainly play a part for injury’s occur. 
 

Good to see Dack pressing aswell.

 

[roverandout]

When u buy a top class defender.  (Hyam) it makes a big difference.  Why Mowbray never invested in a good centre half is beyond me. He did have ayala for a couple of seasons.  We now have a plethora of quality centrebacks.  Hyam ayala Wharton Carter. Build from the back. Thats definitely Been the big difference this season compared to last season 

[G Somerset Rover]

Two of the bottom three to come next (if Coventry pull their finger out). This is Rovers, of course, but such a massive chance to go into the WC in the top two.

We may well get another shot at a January promotion bid. I would say we won’t be as silly to f*ck that up once again but who am I kidding!

Anyway, let’s enjoy tonight. Few beers to celebrate!

Didn’t catch the game today but I’m chuffed that Dack played well/worked hard. Would be amazing to get him back in the first team or as a serious option from the bench.

Pinching myself. This is beyond all expectations.
