v Oxford United (a) - 18/1/25

[MB Rover]

Forshaw looking every bit the 33 year old has-been that he is. Miles off the pace. 

[waynerovers]

Time for some changes.

[yankfan]

Did forshaw come on when Trondstad went out?  Haven’t noticed him 

[Lancaster Rover]

I’m hoping we do a Hull/Watford here and are crap for the bast majority yet sun 1-0

[chaddyrovers]

Good decision by Eustace to make triple sub there. 

[onlyonejackwalker]

Leonard, Hedges and Dolan.

ACD is obviously very talented, but is also showing his inexperience losing the ball

He's a bit like Markanday. Clearly quite skilful, but just so small and slow that he's always going to struggle to make an impact in the men's game.

ACD for Dolan had to happen. Hasn't looked sharp today, especially second half...ffs, as I type that, Dolan with a pathetic stumble.

[simongarnerisgod]

come on leonard,take that one chance if it happens

[Rover_in_the_South]

Asante scores for Coventry.

But he's already put himself about more defensively against their winger. 

[West Yorks Rover]

Asante scores for Cov.

[WacoRover]

Leonard on to save the day! 🎉 

[Nic81]

Every time ACD starts he has a poor game. Surprised he started today, especially away from home. 

[TommyRovers]

Midfield is non existent without Travis/Tronstad 

[Exiled_Rover]

This ref loves to book a Rovers player, doesn't he?

[chaddyrovers]

FFS

[Valconite]

Someone yank the refs shirt off. Bet he has an Oxford one underneath

Was probably a fair call after I saw the replay, thought we'd won the ball in real time but we definitely just crunched him between two players.

[neophox]

Forshaw poor pass.

[ItsRoverZ]

1 nil Oxford, game over, and its so so clear we need reinforcements, a good few 

[onlyonejackwalker]

Dangerous place to give a free kick away. Brittain booked.

Fuck.

[Exiled_Rover]

Undeserved goal for Oxford - they've created nothing and scored from a very, very soft FK.

Same with Gueye.

We should know this by now.  

Only y impactful as subs.

No chance we get anything out of this game.
