NeilInBristol Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 if they were potent they would have buried 2 of their shots. we need to step up. this 2nd half will show us what JE is made of Quote

1864roverite Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 It might not be good on the eye however a point away in a six pointer isn’t too bad a return imo. 3 points is massive but Rovers don’t seem able to produce a bit of quality going forward to open a chance of scoring 3 Quote

BankEnd Rover Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 (edited) Poor half - Almost trying too hard in the final third. Chrisene has been very poor down the left. Id take a draw now. Edited February 13, 2024 by BankEnd Rover 2 Quote

Gallagher hasn't won a header tonight. Our situation certainly wasn’t all on JDT, but equally it isn’t suddenly all on Eustace. We look like a struggling side, which, bar one result against an awful Stoke side, is exactly what we are. It’s simply about cobbling enough points for survival. 2 Quote

From some of the posts on here you’d be forgiven for thinking we were flying prior to Eustace’s arrival. From some of the posts this week you’d think the squad was fine, JDT was shite, and JE is the new Pep-destroying messiah because Gallagher decided to win his annual header. 7 Quote

BigBar Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 I'm oddly content at the moment. No stupid risks, tighten up a bit and look to grab a goal and be a perfect night. We got better as the half went on. 3 Quote

I wouldn't laud that point yet, we look more likely to leave with 0 at the moment. I'd have taken a point before the game. 1 Quote
philipl Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Gally showing the case against giving a new contract. Chrisene poor. No penetration in the team so far. Good job Birmingham aren't shooting straight .. yet? 3 Quote
davulsukur Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Goes without saying that a big improvement is needed in the second half. I though we actually started pretty well, getting the ball forward quickly, even taking quick throw ins to keep the momentum going. We got worse as the half went on and looked to starting putting it back together towards the end. 2 Quote

Stoke were absolutely wretched that first half. This is a fairer reflection of what our squad can/mainly can't do. 3 Quote

DanielMB Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Play good. Play bad. Everything falls back on the tossers that own us. 5 Quote

Happy to see lads clearing their lines and keeper going long. Start with the basics after a horror run. There is a balance to be struck but can't do it all at once. But more composure up top is needed. Been very poor so far in the final third. 2 Quote

For all his faults he’s mostly steady. Much like Pears. And a 0-0 draw would be a good result. A 1-0 a bloody miracle! Quote

B16Rover Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 I know it's low on the list too but our ifollow is always poor compared to other clubs. We just leave the camera on and go for a fag break at half time Quote
aletheia Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Brittain should keep his mouth shut. 3 potential crosses in promising attacks and he hits the defender each time. Crisene stuggling. Shame, thought he looked good on Saturday. Not fit enough for 2 games so close? Tronstad solid. Dolan tidy. Take a draw now. 3 Quote
NeilInBristol Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 "The important thing for me is working with a fantastic group of players. "All I can effect is what's on the pitch. I want togetherness between the players and the fans. That's what I am interested in, I want a team fully committed" his words, not mine. JDT was calling out the shit show of the owners. JE is playing yes man and stating all he can effect is whats on the pitch, well lets see. so far that was shocking 5 Quote

CambridgeRover Posted February 13, 2024 Posted February 13, 2024 Brittain is a moaner simple as. Made himself look a tart with his comments and makes me think he got himself sent off 2 Quote
