v Wrexham (h) - FA Cup - 29/1/24, 7:30pm

[Darwen Rover 007]

Our defense is about as solid as a ripped T bag! 

[duckson]

Nearly 2.........

[Old Codger]

And once again, we play ourselves into a needless crisis.

[OldEwoodBlue]

Pears kept us in it there

[Trinidad Rover]

Hard work being a Rovers fan at the moment. 

[moerpho]

Lost for words. Beauty of the cup I guess. Pears with a worldie. Horror show.

All on Garrett that one

Mostly, a little on Scott Wharton too for me and Pears a little too

That first save from Pears lol…..he is so so bad, yet still somehow our best option

True, but us deciding to play without anyone in the left back position didn't help either.

[jim mk2]

Garrett to blame but Pears shouldn't get beaten at the near post

[RevidgeBlue]

You could see that coming a mile away. 

Completely dominated possession then caught by a sucker punch.

Who's went to be playing LB? Gave Wharyon too much to do to try and get across.

Playing with Gallagher is like playing  with 10 but the Welsh commentators think he's looking 'sharp".

I give up.

Second save is a stunner but from a weak parry to set it up

Clarify 'moment' for me.

League one standard keeper at the very best

[roverandout]

We are so shit at the back 

[martonrover]

Yes, it was a great save, but that doesn’t make up for letting a soft goal in.

That goal has changed the game completely.

It was his fault in the first place, the first save was absolutely shocking palming into the centre of the 6 yard box.

Was running through treacle there.

[BigBar]

The players don't believe in the managers philosophy. They look nervous wrecks and it's a year and a half in. Still persisting with it though. Absolute torture.

[Sparks Rover]

Pears literally no idea what he's doing for goal kicks.

[Displaced Rover]

We’re letting an incredibly agricultural, 4th division team run rings round us. 

We’re literally the ideal team to play. “Only won 4 times away from home all year, rock up at Ewood and play yourself into form. Added bonus is you’ll see Rovers play some lovely passes in midfield as you roll them over”

Pears redeems himself.

He has it in him. Problem is he often has to redeem himself because he drops so many clangers too.

I reckon one of them would be easier to patch up than these fucking morons.

[rock steady]

Little bit concerned about the gaping chasm down our left side here.

If “at the moment” means for the past 14 years or so, I agree.
