Good Save Pears!

[Exiled_Rover]

LOL Cardiff have clearly been instructed to shoot on sight.

I concur with all of that. 

Rovers thoroughly outplayed Cardiff and should be more than 1 up. 

Pears does some daft things. His slide then parry, a booking for timewasting, and more than one ball to nowhere. 

Perhaps Pears will be sent off, giving Toth the chance to show his worth.

I think it was getting rid of JDT that did it

Well he could never be the sort of play maker he is today under Mowbray either.

That was a wonderful goal.

I have been a critic over recent years, but I think Travis has been superb for us this season. 

He couldn't play as a pivot in a 4-2-3-1 - receiving the ball facing his own goal and playing on the half turn wasn't his game. 

He's had a new lease of life under Eustace - he's turned him back into a box-to-box CM.

Perhaps he’s benefiting from having an ex midfielder as manager?

Weimann off for JRC

[bluebruce]

Can't fathom that sub. I know we see Weimann as a 60 minute player but he's the only reason we're winning and has scored 2. Don't take off someone who is having a clinical game unless they're blowing out their arse.

[Forever Blue]

Brilliant save by pears

JRC is half asleep. Shocking defending

Disagree... Hes doing it all. His touch, ball retention and passing like a completely different player. 

[simongarnerisgod]

sitting back now,a dangerous tactic imo unless you have options on the counter attack,though it seems all 11 are back

[moerpho]

Another save from Pears. We need to start playing football again.

[RTM08]

Someone please explain the rationale between never changing anything when losing, but then changing things when we're winning? Hope it doesn't bite us in the backside because it's been decent up until now.

[booth]

Have we parked the bus?

[WacoRover]

Seriously, Cardiff has 14 shots- 6 on goal!? 

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Going to be a bit hairy after the game I reckon, Taff's are fumin 

[joey_big_nose]

Ive been impressed with Cantwell defensively... He really drops in and helps. The trio of him, Travis and Tronstad looks really effective.

[OsloRover]

Home fans in unreasonably biased shocker

[roverandout]

Stupid from Rankin-costello 

[Devon Rover]

JRC dozy fucking twat.

[OsloRover]

JRC concedes penalty, been losing every duel since he came on

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Fucking soft but JRC you silly cunt

[roverandout]
