v Watford (h) 23/12/23

[davulsukur]

Typical Rovers, absolute bottle jobs.

Merry fucking Christmas 

[Mike E]

If I remember rightly, Chads advocates signing Healey for the last couple of years. Found out why 😣

[Armchair supporter supremo]

[West Yorks Rover]

Prediction for Boxing day, Hudds home win.

Bottle merchants. Something seriously wrong with this squad at the moment

The list of players not available is what’s wrong.

Wahlstedt can't hold on to anything. Happens time and again.

What do you expect? Let's blow the summer budget (such as it was) on a keeper worse than the one we've got.

Another Broughton masterstroke. Can't wait to see what he's got in store for January. 

Or hasn't based on previous form.

I can't fault the effort of the players today.

[alcd]

Need 6 wins to be sure of avoiding relegation. Looking a tall order with this threadbare squad and calamity keeper.

[Stonesrick]

Magnificent effort from the Manager, the players and the fans. You are a credit to the club.

The owners and the hierarchy at this club are an absolute disgrace for the lack of support you provide.

Get out of our once proud club you cretins!

[neophox]

Ismael got a bench we could only dream of.... and that was the difference. Tough one. Thought we played well first half. Garrett and Carter need to convert the chances and Leonard wasn't involved much more than the first five he came on...

[OldEwoodBlue]

I believe we are signing Sam Gallagher in January.

[Rover8T4]

Another game where the bench has won the points. Very frustrating as we coped until the Hyam change. Injured players can't come back soon enough

As weak as our bench is (and we all know who to blame for that) the five subs rule is absolutely ridiculous.

We robbed ourselves mate. I agree they have a better bench though.

I agree with Wahlstedt being a liability, but you can't blame the other players for this. They worked hard, were the better team for most of the game. We sadly have no one on the bench to change things up and no experience to see us through games.

Their fresh legs were a massive difference. If only Venkys had listened when we needed experience and another striker.

And replaced Kaminski with a proper goalkeeper instead of going for another budget option.

All Prem clubs complaining of the same thing. Far too many injuries.

Like a new signing.

I'll get me coat....

[neophox]

This league is a mess..... were on a bad run....4 losses in the last 5 games tells you that. JDT needs to sort this out... we need to beat Hudds on tuesday to get ourselves back on track. 5p up to a playoff game and no one except Leicester seems certain of promotion.

I’d set the bar higher than ‘can score against us’

[OldEwoodBlue]

Ben Benson needs to teach Leo how to catch a football. Surely he has a tutorial video on his ipad.

[OsloRover]

Feel sorry for Leo, that was probably his best game for us until the last 15 minutes.

Hyam going off didn’t help. Travis at left back did ok but it isn’t his position. Wharton S and Carter both solid.

Wharton A my man of the match. Trondstad not too far behind. Garrett will be a player but isn’t ready for 90 minutes.

Moran poor again but maybe not as bad as his last few. Siggy average along with Ennis. 

[neophox]

We need Hyam all game... you could see the importance of an senior member of the squad back in the team....we looked shattered when he went off. Also Ennis was more of a nuisance than Leonard.

[BankEnd Rover]

These type of results should not come as a shock to anyone….Look at our squad, look at our bench.
I feel so sorry for the manager, he will be praying for a call in January and I’d bet good money his bags are already packed.

That was a truely awful result to an awful side…I had faith in Leo coming good but I’m starting to think maybe this is a step too far for him, poor lad…Fear not, we have Pears coming back…(Sarcasm)

We could easily be in a relegation fight come January and it’s all thanks to Venkys.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Straight to the point....if no serious financial backing is forthcoming this January from our so called Owners we are going to struggle.

Our home form is abysmal,pissed off.😠

Moran has been so so poor for games now…JDT would rather run him into the ground than play anyone else.

[Hi Mack]

The cost cutting in the summer is costing us. You cannot play in the championship with the squad we have.

Telalovic must be dreadful he can’t get a game even though we’ve got strikers who are allergic to goals.

Not one player on our bench could come on and improve our team. Massive difference compared to other teams!
