v Swansea City (a) - 22/2/25

[K-Hod]

Pathetic lads.

[Dan]

It’s the hope that kills you….

 

Who was criticising @Old Codger for predicting the inevitable? 

[Cherry Blue]

What a let down.

[DavidMailsTightPerm]

Lowe for manager ?

No excuse for having your best players on the bench.

Why not give a side like Swansea the opportunity to get a lead before bringing on your best players - especially now they can sit back and players like Dennis and Kargbo don't have room to operate,

[BigBar]

That's a foul all day and he bottled it. Wanker.

[West Yorks Rover]

Let's see what Lowe's made of now, I'd change the keeper and bring on Kargbo and Dennis at the break.

[Dave f]

Take pears off ffs, he's utterly shit, better off with a fucking empty net

[K-Hod]

Needs a triple sub at half time to get at them and have a go. Shambolic from us, even after not getting a blatant foul in the build up.

What in the fk are we playing at seriously

We're playing very well at the moment, clearly the favourites for this one!

As mentioned by someone previously, Swansea's record in their last 10 matches reads 1W - 1D - 8L. In those 10 games they've conceded 24 goals, and scored only 5.

Comparing our form with theirs, i'm certain of 3 p... hold on a minute.

Sorry, but i've seen this one too many times.

- Rovers playing great, high in the table. ✅
- Opposition badly out of form. ✅
- Opposition struggling to score, leaking goals very heavily. ✅
- Long away journey. ✅

3-0 Swansea.

I called it, unfortunately.

Could be more than 3 at this rate.

[Angry_Pirate]

Who'd have thought we'd be 2-0 down with that starting XI?

[neophox]

Pears shocking again! But hey the honeymoon is over.....almost a fully fit squad...loads of attacking options on the bench and you start with this team!!

[roverandout]

This is why we need a proper manager. The post Eustace team spirit is waning

[Lecogsportif]

Hedges needs to be subbed 

[roverblue]

Just turned in to see us go 2 down, sounds like it’s been poor. Turning off for the day!

[superniko]

Horrendous by Sanderson. Foul or not it should have never reached that situation. He looks like he’s playing a few seconds behind real time continuously.

Stinking club, only group that would leave their better players on the bench. What the hell did we get Dennis for, 5 matches or something 

[rock steady]

Oh dear that is probably that. Sanderson may have been fouled but might have helped if he had gone for the ball rather than just trying to block.

[jny]

Awful, useless, terrible team selection, keep your in form players on the bench and play knackers like Hedges and Forshaw instead for some inexplicable reason. 

Venky's trying to self destruct our play off chances again? 

[WacoRover]

Meanwhile, Lewis Baker scores for Stoke at 46’. Nearly score at :29. 
nice player. 

[imy9]

It’s 1-0 not 10-0.

Pears was poor for that goal, but I have faith that our bench will come in handy second half!

[DE.]

Losing 2-0 to this lot, after fielding that poor excuse for a starting lineup, is totally unacceptable. Really embarrassing. We need someone brave in the dugout who isn't going to pick a player because he usually averages a 6/10 (looking at you, Hedges). Kargbo should have started. A braver manager would have gone for it against this poor team. 

[wilba23]

Shocking so far. Get Buckley and kargbo on. Lowe's done well first 2 games but got it writing today. Needed to get into them from the off. Going to take a massive 2nd half to get even a draw. Both goals avoidable. What's sanderson messing around at for the second, just clear it! 

[yellowsubmarine]

No chance coming back from 2 goals if Hedges and Dolan still on field. Weimann should have done better with his shot on goal. Hedges is pure shite. Cant defend, cant attack. Zero output from him. Disgusting first half.

[...]

Think this is the worst I've ever seen from us this season, communication is horrendous why on earth was Trav that deep defending, Weimann shouting the odds but losing the ball, pears.... Sunday league. 

Nice some zest now kargbo, Buckley and Peter Schmeichel.

Spot on...it's game over. Fuck off Lowe
