v Millwall (a) - Monday 8th May

[OldEwoodBlue]

If that was Travis who bottled out of the challenge leading up to their second, he should be sacked at HT.

You can say that again 🙂

I feel like I say this every season, but we need a new captain. Someone who finds results like this unacceptable, crashes some heads together and has a huge pair of cojones. We’ve not had one for years.

Is Ben Brereton-Diaz being booed by the away fans?

Hopefully

Ye, if he doesn't come sprinting out Pickering nods it back to him.

He did a similar thing v Norwich and I got some stick of @Gav....terrible keeper.

I'm hoping either this is a master stroke and Broughton / JDT are trying to up his value before the summer where they sell him - or Kaminski is still recovering from his surgery, 'cos no way can you think Pears deserves his place in this team otherwise.

How anyone can have watched this last month or so and thought he's the one I'll never know. Regardless of the lack of a striker the football we play is still suicidal, the team has no fight or will to get back into games and the game management is non-existent. 

Absolute dross.

Not just the last month. Since Jan it's been atrocious.  But wait it's a 'transition year " and we have a " young squad " so give him time..

Watmore always plays well against us, Iv said we should have signed him for many seasons before this 

Really decent guy as well

[Proudtobeblue&white]

I'm only continuing to watch this as a Rovers supporter of 50-years, and we've had far more downs than ups. I hope those wankers in India are also watching, as there have been no ups whatsoever since they bought and ruined our club.

JDT has to go.  He hasn't got the man management to be able to get us promoted.

Plus he picks terrible players every week.

Which alternative players would you be selecting then? Just look at that bench today its either unfit players or more kids.

[RoversClitheroe]

Have to say Villarreal have really fucked it get Diaz, back to the Brereton of 2 seasons ago and has been like that since November.

[Stonesrick]

At 5pm tonight, Pickering, Travis, Thomas, Hedges and especially Brereton get the hell out of our club forever.

Scoreline and its resulting impact aside, this is going to be NINE without a win. I mean, there’s zero defence to that. It’s simply disgraceful.

Shows Gallagher on the bench looking glum "Rovers are without their only recognised striker".

Relegation form right at the wrong time...deja vu?

How do you legislate the three goals as a manager?? Two are blatant poor decisions by the players. 

Play your best keeper? That stops one of them at least, for the first it’s a direct result of the instruction to play out from the back as well 

[CambridgeRover]

Booing Diaz, fucking finally, you fake bastard

[superniko]

Desperately need an upgrade on Pickering, Travis, Hedges, Diaz and Thomas in that 11 if we’re to have any chance next year. Add in that Kaminski should clearly be in over Pears that’s over half the team, quite a big overhaul. 

[davulsukur]

There is an astonishing amount of work needed on this squad and if we are just bringing in loans and freebies, it won't be anywhere near enough. 

Wouldn't be getting any hopes up for a play off push next season.

2 midfielders and 2 centre forwards should do it

No. Left back quite obviously needed. Plus wide players to supply a cf who might actually score some goals. 

I only think kaminski, hyam, jrc, a.wharton, smodicz of our current squad should be first teamers.

Kaminski for a start

in his defence,he`s limited to who he can pick

Dolan > Diaz

Kaminski > Pears

Brittain > Pickering

Garrett > Travis

Just 4 better options right there...

[roverandout]

It won't be third time lucky next season.  We're going to be midtable at best

I still think he is the better keeper for the style he wants to play. Two other goals are not his fault.
