v Coventry City (a) - 1/10/2024

[Crozzy]

Why have we waited so long for these subs? Been stood there 3-4 mins

[ItsRoverZ]

Just can't believe how utterly pathetic we have been tonight, plesse a RB at RB and have Carter at cb for hyam, have some physical presence up top for god sake

Why are you calling him the “Japanese lad”? You would refer to any of the other players by their nationality…

Does it really matter?

[CambridgeRover]

Tronstad and Travis off, didn't see that coming

[Crozzy]

I think you’ve gotta make that sub 10 mins ago

[Displaced Rover]

Yes.

They've both been poor but I'm surprised he didn't leave one of them on and take Weimann off.

[Cherry Blue]

Few leasons for JE in tonight's defeat. Wilson has history but we've fallen again for him. Ohashi not the player for starting, should have been Gueye. Cantwell not physical enough.

Just guessing but possibly because he's Japanese and it is a useful means of identification as we don't have any other Japanese players In the side?

[LDRover]

Just now, Displaced Rover said:

Yes.

 

Okay, the Norwegian lad has been pretty ineffective too.

Or are you inferring the R word I wonder.....

[Forever Blue]

That pass from hedges summed up our performance. Utterly dreadful going forward from everyone on the pitch. 

[Herbie6590]

Hope you’ll all remember to vote for your player of the match…👀

[rovers11]

Just not been anywhere good enough tonight. Been well off it.

Onto Plymouth on Saturday.

[RutlandRover]

Bloody hell it's just all over the place tonight. Nothing working, no connection, no intensity. So strange after some decent performances so far this season. Coventry just want it more.

[Ghost7]

We absolutely rolled over for them here. Pathetic performance from the players... and the manager. 2 subs were needed at HT.

and we do need a new keeper.

[jny]

Utterly, utterly terrible - have we had a single sequence where we've managed to string three passes together?

DOGSHIT, sort it out Eustace!

[G Somerset Rover]

Forever the Rovers way under this lot - it’s why I can never allow myself to get carried away by a few decent results.

‘None of the above’

[Upside Down]

Poor doo today.

Soft goals, bad performance, wrong tactics and not changing things up when needed.

Big Mak needs to be on from the start .

You know what else is a good identification of a player, his name.

Take off the English lad and bring on the Senegalese lad. that English keeper needs to be rested for Hungarian lad.

Wish we hadn't sold the English/Irish/Hungarian guy last summer

[London blue]

This is so shit. We wouldn't have needed to be at our best to beat this lot. They've been sloppy and wasteful.

We've just been woeful. Every single player should hang their head. I don't understand Eustace's thought process at all, either pre game or during.

[roversinmyblood]

When Coventry pass it goes to their man, when we pass it goes anywhere but our man! Very poor performance by everyone tonight. 

[Mercer]

Utter rubbish.

Options - go to pub, turn tv off or keep watching and open a red to numb the pain!

[booth]

We've always lacked in pace and have started the season well because the effort made up for it. We've lacked that tonight. We did the same against Blackpool and Preston. Just not up for it. We'll always struggle if we don't put a shift in, especially against a team that is.
