v Stoke City (a) - 12/3/2025, k/o 20.00

[Forever Blue]

We’ve regressed massively in just a few weeks under VI (Victory Improbable)

[NeilInBristol]

Stoke are not even sitting back. They know they can win this with a bit of a goal difference

If you had to rate them now there isn’t a single one of them worthy of a score above 5, it’s pitiful stuff 

Gueye the only one giving his all

[B16Rover]

Great feet from Gueye

[simongarnerisgod]

im`e not sure the players have taken to ismael,footballers are a militant bunch,if they don`t like or respect the coach,they`ll try to **** him over,it happened with ince,you could actually see on the pitch they were trying to get him sacked,in comes allardyce and in an instant they`de run through a minefield for him,they would`nt run through a cowpat for ince

[DanielMB]

Which part of the team was it that we invested significantly in?

Ismael heading for 1 point out of 9

As Yosser Hughes said, “I could do that”

Worse than Lowe's run.. 

Perhaps they should have given it to him

[J*B]

Manager is a total nightmare. They’ve absolutely no idea how to play this system.

Yep he’s getting frustrated but it shouldn’t be on him at all to be dropping so deep and trying to make things happen - he needs support around him

So poor. 

Anyone who picks Adam Forshaw ahead of Tronstad deserves everything he gets.

[SpaceBarSlam]

It's flipping grim supporting this club atm. Going into every match expecting a loss, run by charlatans with no end in sight. 

[roverandout]

Haha commentators said venkys have two plans.  Venkys couldn't plan a piss up in a brewery

I’m honestly not blaming him, it is the club and these spineless players like Pears, Travis, Dolan and Hyam who have capitulation in their DNA.

There’s a system?

5 at the back + Forshaw and a 40 yard gap between midfield and Gueye 

[Valconite]

Sounds like I made the right decision to not bother watching this. Predictable yearly sabotage by those in charge and end of season collapse 🤦‍♂️

[Hasta]

lol. Where Forshaw running to there when Cantwell gives that foul away.

It's poor, but we've been poor under Eustace for a while too. We went to shit when Trav and Tron got injured.

Really great banners!

We need more of it.

[NeilInBristol]

Cantwell is so frustrating to watch 

[RTM08]

Cantwell and Dolan having more of a positive effect on the Stoke attack than ours

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Forshaw an absolute passenger.

This has honestly been one of the worst halves of football I've ever seen Rovers play in 33 years. Due to the total lack of skill, shape, competence, etc etc. It's abysmal. Simply has to make changes at half time.
