If Pears is to be dropped then so does Carter. He was abysmal in the first half against Hudds. The main person dropped should be Morton for Wharton though. What Morton was doing for their second goal I'll never understand - it was straight out of the book of Keith Andrews. Standing there jogging and watching as a ball flies across the box. He's a total liability. If Carter and Morton had their heads screwed on we'd have two extra points.

Because they do know what to do when he's out of position.

I saw money changing hands and season tickets handed over. Until the final whistle I had no idea quite the extent of the dodgy ticket selling and that I was sat in a stand filled with Man City fans. I doubt there was any action taken against the fans that sold them despite it creating a potentially very dangerous situation.

We got offered a silly amount of money for our season tickets. Didn't take it. Some people made a decent wedge from not attending that game.

The more I watch replays of yesterdays second half performance, the more I think stick JRC up front in place of Gallagher. Put Brittain and Sorba on the flank. The lad isn't afraid to shoot and heads the ball well. He scored one and pretty much made one.

It's if Rovers fans sell their tickets to touts as happened years ago against Man City.

And a joke of a punishment with a transfer embargo, after the transfer window 😄

For anyone interested, we were 2 points outside of the play offs at this stage last season after a 1-1 draw at home to Blackpool. And we were rubbish if I remember correctly.

It's like their keepers are having a sneaky bet on who can be the most shit. I don't think I've ever seen two different keepers, same team, same match, be this bad.

I think you've got your wish 😕

Bit annoying that Tella did two fouls in ten seconds and didn't receive a single card, yet their goalie got sent off for one. Funny old game isn't it.

Sheffield Utd imploding at the Dingle dome.

Oof, Huddersfield were a lot more fortunate. Two shots, two goals against run of play. Then we hit the post. I'd say we were very unlucky overall. Huddersfield had 10 men defending for most of the game. Give us a midfielder and a striker and we'd be beating these teams easily.

You wouldn't have thought so with the reactions on here.

You say it doesn't need fixing but we've only won one in the last five. I think Brittain is a better defender but JRC the better attacker. I'd still keep JRC on the same side but give him the free role he seems to have now. If Sorba isn't playing.

I'd leave them out and bring BBD off the bench. I wouldn't even have Gallagher on the bench.

I'd like to see Brittain at fullback and JRC further forward when Sorba isn't playing. Keep Wharton in. Szmod gave everything. Brereton is poor, blimey. I'd replace him with Dolan in the next game. It's a shame I could enjoy a game without having to watch Gallagher plod about, but then the defence made up for it with two sloppy goals totally against the run of play. If we don't beat Hull at home then we may as well give up.

I've never seen such a one sided game, yet chasing a point most of the match.

I know all of those things, we'd still be equally shit upfront with the odd good game. Rovers are like a Hydra in terms of scoring goals, cut off one head and replace with another head of equal or worse value. Waggot allowing Mowbray free reign to create a team with an inability to score goals shouldn't be ignored. But then not addressing that in the last two transfer windows is criminal. But that's what you get with a ropey ex-agent chancer as CEO, he couldn't care less. Back to JDT, I said this a while ago but why the club brought in a manager who wants to play a certain way, then can't even muster a striker in two transfer windows is yet another decision that makes no sense. They'll have had this planned beforehand so knew they couldn't back him with signings. All they did over the last two windows was the bare minimum, replace players that had left. You can't do that if you're genuinely chasing promotion.

Not by the club then, whose push for promotion equated to bringing in a loanee winger?

Defence and Pears having a nightmare. Completely outplaying Hudds but if you're asleep at the back what's the point. 2 shots 2 goals. Not dangerous enough upfront and still suffering from underinvestment in goalscorers. Brereton not helping with passing backwards instead of getting forward. JRC should have scored but a poor finish.

Because we've not seen that squad finish in a top 6 place yet, ever? I think this is the problem with a lot of fans, you're expecting guaranteed play offs from a bunch of players who previously have let us down time after time. I know what's coming and I'll be pleasantly surprised if it doesn't.

Not entirely on him, he doesn't have a centre forward worth using.

Thanks to the club being so laid back/lazy about seemingly everything - including the way they treated Mowbray, I just had absolutely no expectations of this season. Mid table was my prediction because I didn't think we'd have the firepower to get us higher up the league. So it's been a surprise we are where we are and not a surprise when we get beat, even though it still ruins my day. I've no doubt that many are expecting the play offs. If we get in the play offs they'll be then expecting promotion. When we don't achieve one or the other they'll all be livid just as they was when we didn't get to the next round of the cup. It's folly to expect anything of this bunch of players. I don't expect any of it because I know we'll be pinning our hopes on the likes of Morton and Gallagher, combined with inconsistent misfits like Hedges and Dolan. And as for Brereton, is his heart really in it any more? I don't see it. I'd like us to get into the play offs as it would indicate an improvement. I won't enjoy the JDT out posts all over social media from the same people who would defend Mowbray to the death.

It's impossible not to pick one or two passengers these days. Morton and Brereton need dropping for Wharton and Dolan. Gallagher needs dropping but I haven't a clue who for. Whoever we put there would be on a wing and a prayer. JRC takes Hedges role and Brittain takes the fullback position.
