v Luton Town (a) - 12/4/2025

[Ferrit]

Two piss poor sides on display here, zero quality.

[StHelensRover]

How has this Walsh not had a booking yet?

[Miker]

I haven't watched a game since Plymouth, can't believe how much we've regressed since then.

This is why the refs being poor doesn't even up - he's had two bookable offences, both waved away. Travis on the other hand is now walking a tightrope.

This is a decent performance by our recent standards as well 😂

[Exiled_Rover]

That's really, really poor from Ohashi. Stay onside you clown. 

[CambridgeRover]

Ohashi is constantly offside

[RevidgeBlue]

Watching at a mate's house - this is dire beyond belief.

Both sides.

Complaining about the referee is just clutching at straws.

What was Toth doing there? Lol.

Makes Pears look like Gordon Banks.

He got fouled - the ref was about to blow but the ball fell to one of our players so he waved play on. 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

One shot on Goal.

[OsloRover]

Both teams poor, but at least we haven’t conceded yet which feels like some sort of improvement.

[Andy]

We finally drop Calamity Pears (injury my arse) and we don't concede in the first few minutes.

In fact, a clean sheet at HT.

Almost like it's a coincidence.

[Miker]

Our strategy seems to be to play it down the wings until we lose it, or punt it up the field BFS style. Dire awful football - we've created literally nothing.

 

[roversfan99]

This has again been absolutely painful to watch. The standard from both teams in a supposedly good league is horrendous, youd find better quality games down at Pleasington.

We are absolutely dire. No sign of any supposed game plan so a poor set of players is somehow made to look even worse than they actually are. No pressing, no pace, no skill, one solitary shot which was barely a half chance put into row Z.

[Ferrit]

Not sure how those who've travelled will be safe to drive back after that excitement, 1 shot the entire half? 

[West Yorks Rover]

Not much happening in the 3pm kick-offs ;

6 x  0-0, a 1-0 and a 1-1

The fact the opposition haven't mustered an effort on target might have something to do with it too.

Lol.

Playoffs here we cone....😆

[DE.]

Considering we are, imo, currently the worst team in the division, 0-0 away at half time against anyone is reasonable. The joys of getting Venked in January.

Open top bus on standby 

[moerpho]

So I decided to come back and give my beloved Rovers another chance other than checking results and text updates. Who are these guys? I recognize the name but not the player. This is heartbraking if nothing else. I knew that Eustace leaving would have an impact, but come on…this is pathetic. Headless chickens. And every time the camera pans to Ismael Valerian I fell pissed off and despondent.

Well….here´s hoping that against all odds that we conjure up some magic in 2nd half and let jim2k have his first win of the season. Onwards and….ehhr…..

Literally speaking, correct.

But Pears has been (rightly) targeted as the weak point in our side by most opposition this season - and it's paid off for them (early goals / etc).

[Cherry Blue]

Has a Pears deal been done with Manu hence he been told he's injured??
