Cuppliance Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Not at the game as I’m under the weather today. What formation are we running following the red card? Same as before minus Dolan and Britain in Pickering’s position? Quote
AspRover Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 The new keeper out with illness... Is this a flu episode affecting the squad kind of deal? Quote

davulsukur Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 This is where having some pace would come in really handy. Having none at all, makes life even more difficult. 4 Quote
Wing Wizard Windy Miller Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 The ball won't stick with Leonard. Not his game. Sub at HT. Quote
West Yorks Rover Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 2 yellows for Hull they must be getting frustrated. Quote

No pace or threat. Every time we get the ball in their box, it gets passed to someone in a worse position. Then we lose it. I imagine that’s pretty easy to defend. Quote
Exiled_Rover Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Hedges fucks you off - that's a brilliant turn and run to end the half. Then he'll fumble the shot / pass at the end of it. Such a frustrating player. Quote
1864roverite Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Rovers have to bide their time been too many sloppy balls and not enough impact going forward 1 Quote

We had Bellamy - who still ran them ragged and scored the winner for us that day. 2 Quote
Backroom DE. Posted August 19, 2023 Backroom Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) Feel sorry for the fans at Ewood so far. An early Rovers sending off and getting dominated by Hull (before and after Pickering went off). Hoping for JDT to pull off a second half miracle. Only positive is that we haven't conceded yet. For anyone thinking Leonard is enough to lead the line, last week and this week show why that simply isn't the case. The lad isn't ready for the first team week in week out. At 19 there's no shame in that, the shame is on the club for forcing things to be this way through unfit signings or just no signings at all. Edited August 19, 2023 by DE. 5 Quote
ItsRoverZ Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 JRC for tronstad and Ennis for Leonard at half time please, Leonard just isn't doing it today, first touch poor etc We need Ennis who holds the ball up well and has a bit of pace about him Quote
philipl Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Hull not doing to us what we did to Rotherham- yet. All Championship games level at half time. Quote

Backroom Mike E Posted August 19, 2023 Backroom Posted August 19, 2023 A lot of fans around me saying we don’t miss Pickering. I disagree, we replaced him with Brittain. It’s Dolan we don’t miss (aside from having the extra body on the pitch). Think Gally or Ennis need to come on for more presence up top, Leonard’s only made a couple of good runs imo. 3 Quote

At 19 there's no shame in that, the shame is on the club for forcing things to be this way through unfit signings or just no signings at all. I'd like to see him with some actual service before writing him off. He's clearly very athletic, technically sound and works his socks off. Unfortunately he's 5'10" / 5'11" so isn't going to win many aerial duels and he's not got electric pace. He'll cause teams problems with his movement, but nobody is finding him (Wharton did, but he fired in the pass). Quote
Bbrovers2288 Posted August 19, 2023 Posted August 19, 2023 Know we want our young lads to be brilliant but I’m not seeing it from Leonard. pickering needed replaced in the summer, fine for a backup but shouldn’t be our main left back 2 Quote

I'd also bet that Leonard is quicker than Ennis. Quote
