v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 2/12/23

[Mercer]

Just back from a Christmas jolly!

Wow, that bench.

1 down but still confident.  Got Rovers win at 3-1 with SS and Leonard as anytime goalscorers all at 75/1.  Bet on track!  COYB

Bannan with another nibble at Adam Wharton.

[CambridgeRover]

Szmodics has to score that

[booth]

Another one for Sammie that he usually scores. That's two in 5 minutes.

[Oldgregg86]

Sunderland death spiral continues

1-0 millwall

[B16Rover]

Cant help but think Mowbray would have us 3 nil up here.  We lack the resolve that we had under Tony!

[booth]

HT

Not sure how Szmodics hasn't scored at least one. Tiredness I imagine.

Top notch banter.

[Sweaty Gussets]

Sounds like one of those days. The players are probably running on fumes at this point. 

[rovers11]

Poor first half but the game is far from over. Moran, in particular, completely off it today.

[AllRoverAsia]

FFS other teams play similar schedules but we are the team that is always the one to show tiredness.

Complete bollocks.

Moran playing like an under weight schoolboy too young yet to wank.

Good thing we don’t have the busiest weeks of the season coming up!

[Oldgregg86]

We have shown enough in that half to give me confidence we can turn this around. COYB

Yeah, these injuries have been a disaster, and we're going into the hardest month of year based on opponents and number of games. 

[AllRoverAsia]

Still, we came into the game a bit and could/should have scored at least one.

It's only HT so still hope for improvement, might even see us make a tackle.

We're missing Lewis Travis most though, don't you think?

We have NO subs and haven't for over a month.

Tbh, I think what I’ve seen of Garrett he’d be better than Trondstad has been today and if there’s anyone left footed in the academy get them on for Brittain.

The only threat we’ve had down the left was from a Pickering overlap.  Palmer knows Brittain is gonna switch it to his right foot and it’s making it too easy to keep nicking the ball off him.

Some of them do look tired, but Szmodics is still charging about and Adam Wharton doesn’t look particularly slower, he just ambles around when we’re defending anyway.

[waynerovers]

I still think we'll win the game. Sat in a sports bar in Budapest on my jollies to watch the arsenal game and rovers just happen to be on the TV to right of it. Happy days

Seen straight through it 

[booth]

They should win the game, but whether they do is a different matter.

Ended the half well and Wednesday look poor at the back.
