Chrisene looks knackered.

[B16Rover]

Such a looming feeling koumetio costs us here.  Wanderer 

[superniko]

I’d be getting Pickering on now I think 

[Bethnal]

Chrisene for Pickering. Have to.

Koumetio seems to have found his legs, no longer absolutely abject.

Settled down a bit, definitely has that clumsy looking long-leggedness but that can be a bit deceptive.

Do we gave more subs?

[LeftWinger]

Koumetio feels like we are playing Chris Samba at left back.

If Samba was hammered.

If Samba was hammered.

He had an awful first 5 mins but I think hes done pretty well since then.

What is this refereeing? If he’s not got a Newcastle bias, he’s he’s doing a good job of pretending.

I thought we’d given up when Buckley and Dolan came off, but we finished the game really well.

Why don’t we play like this in the league?

To be fair he's picked up several points that I didn't expect us to get already. 

[roverandout]

Koumetio has turned into baresi

You should get one more in Extra Time.

[Tugay Et Labore]

No player has ever confused me more than Koumetio

Played much much better second half. (I wonder why?)

Were derailed for a period by really poor substitutions but got the goal and got a second wind and finished the stronger.

Deserve to sneak through on the balance of play but we probably won't.

 

Their GK has had a blinder, I don't fancy us against him in penalties.

That's a bizarre set of changes... Buckley has been our best player. Dolan and Moran have also been doing well.

Probably to save them for Saturday.

[rob_of_the_rovers]

Could do without a Wharton injury

Agreed, nothing wrong with him on the ball but he just looks a little lost out there off the ball and in his positioning.

[jim mk2]

Rovers look knackered

Yep, agreed.

Lanky bugger so should be able to get on the end of some corners.

[simongarnerisgod]

[B16Rover]

Christ alive Ainsley pears 

[jim mk2]

Brilliant by Pears

[Spankus Munky]

Take a Bow Pears...

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Can I call him excellent now?

[benhben]

Pears!!! 

[Displaced Rover]

Next time someone tries to say Leo should be in goal they need hounding off this forum…
