Commentary on website is only background noise. The pathetic amateurs can't even get their microphones to work. Absolute joke of a club!

At times this is an improvement

Man have we missed Owen Beck!

[moerpho]

Big Mak!!!!!

[duckson]

1-0 either Dolan or OG...

[bigbrandjohn]

Goal. by Gueye. Stop press. Beck is  very very good. The position is his. 

[Old Codger]

Dolan or Guey - but either way, its a GOOOOOAAAAALLLL!

Stop press! Gueye not within an ass's roar of that goal.

Looked like an OG, but let Gueye have it , will give him a bit of confidence

[Forever Blue]

I can see why people are confusing Mak and Dolan. Hard to tell them apart at times.

Dominating possession, but need to do more with the ball. 

This has sucker punch written all over it...

[danger19_80]

Sky given it to Dolan

[Bethnal]

Owen Beck has got it all. It’ll take something to unseat Andy Robertson, but Beck can play at a full level higher than this, no problem

Despite the goal we've been pretty lacklustre

Think we’ve looked alright, Swansea are just applying a bit of pressure and physicality/woken up. Good game of championship football, really!

[West Yorks Rover]

Just heard a stat, the last time Rovers won 5 on the run at home, we went on to win the Premier League.

We don't really offer much of a threat and we are home and we are playing like we do away going very defensive

It’s not like Swansea are looking much better 

[moerpho]

Can’t really complain this far. I’m all in for a boring 1-0 and 3 points.

Lead-up to the goal there was a lot of threat, we scored, Swansea have woken up, we’re weathering that a bit and playing on the break. Lack of quality in the final ball, unfortunately, but I think this is just how football works now for sides like us. Back and forth a bit until someone provides a bit of quality or gets a bit of luck.

We seemed to drop our line since the goal 

[Old Codger]

It is pretty meh, but Rovers have their noses in front, and that is always preferable to having them rubbed in the dirt.

Long way to go, and Swansea are getting a lot of success down their right, and winning a lot of fouls when in possession. 

Let's hope there is more in the tank from our boys.

[joey_big_nose]

Really poor game quality wise. Both sides struggling to do anything. Lots of simple passes given away.

Not one for a neutral...just as well Im not one!

[yankfan]

Have we had a kick on the other side of the field since the goal?  I can’t stand the meaningless possession in our box only to give it away 35 yards from our goal
