We are looking to press high when we can

So are they on us, but they're doing it sporadically. 

Which is clever, because our defenders surprised is not good.

Sounds like West brom are really upping it here, I dislike how we let teams play and how our midfield becomes non existent..

Relying on a bit of magic here

45sec per throw in. 
We are on 1:30 added on already. Not. 
Timekeeping in football. One of my many irritations. 

Yep, should just book Furlong the first time he does it.

Hope Thomas is ok. No replays on red button. Can anyone say if it was a bad tackle?

That's a red card for Albrighton - that's a leg breaker.

Safe to say if it had been a Rovers player it would have been. 

[chaddyrovers]

Thomas back on

[Andy]

BBD looking bright in this one, let's hope he gets a goal and goes on a little run.

[G Somerset Rover]

Adam Wharton at the emirates tonight. Isn’t he fit again?!

[Penwortham Blue]

Morton struggling again, so far

[chaddyrovers]

Rovers pressing high and WBA made a mistake and we forced a throw to us

Morton will always struggle in a two, he looked good for a good Liverpool side that had the ball alot but in a fight for midfield he will go missing

[Exiled_Rover]

Dolan is in their CB's pockets right now.

Is he really? That's not a good look for us. 

[BigBar]

Need to hurl a few of the throw ins we have in the final third into the box. We are so careless with them, frantically throw it aimlessly at no one countless times. It's very poor.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Slugfest at the moment, neither look like winning it!

[BigBar]

Very sloppy from Dack there...

[CambridgeRover]

Jesus christ , what the heck Dack

[Exiled_Rover]

Apparently we were after their #9 in the summer - he'd have been a good pick up, he's a handful.

Correct we did. I would move for him again this summer if we can afford him

Asante  yeah we bid for him, shame we didn't get him, he does look a tidy player

friggin ref making the rules up as he goes along

[Exiled_Rover]

O'Shea and his mates crowded the ref and had a cry - the ref changes his decision from a corner to Rovers to a GK to WBA.

The standard of officiating in his league... hilariously bad.

Absolutely bonkers 

[Andy]

Ref gave us our 4th or 5th corner (lost count), then changes his mind when the WBA players bully him.

Strange decision.
