v Ipswich Town (a) - 23/9/23

[BigBar]

Having seen the Big Sam style at Rovers and the JDT style at Rovers. I know which one I'd rather watch. Clue: it's not suicide football.

[Tugay-is-God]

Markanday looks like he should be quick, but he just isn't.

Has Dolan actually completed a pass yet?

This season?

Pickering, Pears, Travis, Dolan, Markanday

All league one players

Ispwich player just used his hand to control the ball on the floor, nothing given

Maybe he can give Pears some tutoring. 

[West Yorks Rover]

Leeds up to 5th, 3-0 up.

You say that but last year at this time we were playing poorly and winning. Plenty on here didn't like it.

Dolan...Donut.

I actually don’t care if he just leaves on a free. An awful footballer who I’m fed up of seeing in our shirt.

It's not suicide football though - our GK has thrown 2 in the back of the net and was VERY slow coming out for the 3rd. A good GK and we easily win this 3-1. He's an absolute clown. 

[Bethnal]

We’ve punched ourselves out and to be honest, scoring three away from home should be a win. We can’t legislate for a keeper that’s contributing to the opposition’s xG.

The rally early second half is good, Siggy looked good, Leonard looked good, Szmodics is on a good run of scoring. Those are the positives, at least.

[Tugay-is-God]

They're timewasting, but I'm not sure they need to. We don't much look like threatening. 

[Cherry Blue]

one positive is we scored 3 away from home.

wait to see if JDT pots Pears.

Pears shouldn't have been on the pitch.

I wonder if he was before he destroyed his hamstring?

Short memories. 

I'd back JDT to figure it out.

If Pears starts against Leciester then he's definitely got a problem around his goalkeepers.

this is all so true bit needs the  manager to recognise the keeper situation that we can all see clear as day.

It's both. They aren't mutually exclusive.

We took longer over our throw in than they did 🙂

Aren't we watching the same game. He made a few good saves too. It could have been 6-3 or 7-3 EASILY.

after the debriefing  of this match i hope jdt realises he needs  new goalkeeper and needs to re think his team shape

Sadly with Hedges probably out for the foreseeable you'll be seeing a lot more of Dolan - unless JDT gives Gilsenan a go.

[West Yorks Rover]

Plenty of tough games to come in October, unless we stop leaking goals, we'll be in the bottom 3 by the end of it.

Conspiracy theory, he's under orders to play Pears. Development.

If he doesn't drop him next match then I'll believe it.

6 mins added on and we need a goal and there is no urgency from rovers at all
