Inthought it was more about bottling it and inexplicably becoming nervous and unable to move forward with more than one pass. Painful very painful, to me it was not like we had them in our pocket and they would never score was more like we were.all at sea.and hoe the hell did they.not get something. That said 7 hours later and the nerves, heartrate, blood pressure and anger all subsiding to normal I am now sporting a wry grin and chuffed to bits at the three points. Bit of a make up from having the 4 points stolen by Ipswich and Villa. There is some potential in that starting line up.

Hated it too like we flipped a switch we were so much better than them and we stopped. Not enough blood pressure medicine in my cabinet to get me through another one of those. I could see if they were much the better team and we were.hanging in but bliody hell when we scored I thought we might go on to a comfortable win.

Well, hell they put me through the ringer.

If I was the owner of Rovers I would have Mowbary in my office Monday and make it clear.if he pulled that crap again he could clean iut his desk. I don't think I have ever.felt this way, A win that feels like a loss, I feel sort if guilty we won that.

Entertainment? This is horrible horrible punishment.

Why do I pay to watch my team then can't stand to watch em cos they kill me. Sloppy. Feels so inevitable they will score.

Why do we ALWAYS do that. Evans and Smallwood back, see us losing this now, not because they came on but cos we will onky try to defend the lead and invite them on. This lot age me.

Yah, Danny seems a little off today.

Yes we seem to be trying to defend a slim lead again, notlob will score, maybe 2. We need 3 or 4 fi5r me to relax even if only a little.

Me too, what a waste.

My nerves can't handle 1-0, come to think, 3-0 wasn't any better.

That's a real worry. If so why? My concern from the iff is that the lad does not look like he really wants to be here. Regardless of the words coming out of his mouth his demeanor looks anything but happy, smiles look forced and fake. I really really hope this works out but my gut tells me, if fans start getting on him it could all end badly. Good kuck to him but if we don't give him the ball mot much he can do is there?

If we would improve the quality of iur finishing too, some if those games we should have been way ahead. That said, I almost expect us to concede late on now.

What has Rothwell done to be moved down the pecking order. Did he get caught with pictures of Mowbary's missus all nekkid?

Mowbary's got this wrong. Why are we starting with players on the bench who are better than starters.

You must be a mind reader Imma thinking pretty much the same scary huh?

Even me wife has commented we always do that and she is nit exactly a student of the game.

What did I miss? Definately agree on lack of luck, I thought we were much the better side 1st half, poor postioning by the linesman cost us a goal. If.he had been in line with the front line he would have seen Dack was inline with Hutton. Whatever happened to the doubt going to the attacker. I also thought we.matched Villa 2nd.half until they went behind and we.got our usual eeby geebies about attacking. Bitterly disappointed.we.did not win that. I predicted a 3-1 reverse so I should be happy with the point but we have an uncanny knack of making draws feel like defeats.

I had Andrews flash backs too.

Great free kick, but shiuldnit have been and why is Reed risking it anyway. As soon as the ref gave it I knew they would score. Absolute quality free kick though. 2 poor decisions (imho) and another 2 points lost to officials. I know I know, it will even itself out blah blah etc etc, never seems to for us though. Brereton? mmmmm two cameos and if there has been a flash of potential I have missed it. How long is he gonna get before fans are on his arse.

1st game after the break, I get to watch it on ESPN+, Villa been struggling a bit. Get.your.money on an away win, possinly a handsome one. 3-1 to the original clarrot and blues.

Twitter, never done it.

I don't care for Samuel at all but you have to respect the fact that he was trying to give it a right good go. Putting in the extra effort over summer shiwed he at least wants it. Fell sorry for him that he did not get a chance to see if his extra effort wiuld have paid off.

A great man management style, make it clear to everyone, as long as we don't lose too many games in the meantime. Sometimes you just have to be a bit ruthless.

Interesting reading the squabbling about over positive oosting and all negative posting. Majirity in here seem ti like a moan, enjoy criticising. Great win against a fancied team, 19 pages of posts. Lose against a decent outfit 36 pages and counting. Sums it up nicely for me. Something of a moot oiint but is not their 4th offside?
