It's not Szmodics I'll n particular I'm talking about to be fair. Moran had half an hour on Saturday and struggled admittedly to adjust to the pace of the game. But there's no doubt there's a player in there and will be big for us this season Same with Telalovic, came on at a time when Boro were having their best spell and spent most of the time chasing down the two Boro cbs. Had little to chance to show what he could do with the ball at his feet, apart from that through ball to sammi

Injury update (of sorts) https://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/1197007235?-11198:839 Plus Raya starts for Arsenal today

Sammi Szmodics, the perfect example of how you shouldn't write a player off after watching him for 45 minutes. Some players adjust to the rigours of this league quickly, others, although talented, need time. Let's not rush to judge some of our new lads too quickly

Wasn't Carter also given the nickname "carthorse" by some on here after a slightly dodgy spell? Seems he's turned into a bit of a thoroughbred now 😁

Hoping Travis and Gallagher are ok after there knocks.. Trav didn't look great although JRC came on and did a great job in there.

This Pears bashing is frankly ridiculous. Ok, blame him when necessary, but today he was excellent. A couple of really good punches from corners, great save 2nd half from O'Brien (I think), and also kept out a lenihan header 1st half. Did absolutely nothing wrong today

WTF with that 4th goal.? Not a single Southampton player in his own half ? 80 yards to run there unchallenged. Unbelievable

Exactly 2-1 another balls up. If these are 2 of the best teams this season, we might be in with half a chance

This could be another 5-0 here. Absolute shambles at the back are Southampton. Never understood Martin being rated so highly, it's kamikaze stuff

I don't think many, if any , have any issues with the job Broughton is trying to do under difficult circumstances. I personally have a lot of time for him, think he speaks honestly and explains the clubs situation as clearly as he can

GB warning Venkys they risk losing JDT with these budget restrictions. They obviously aren't listening.🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️😡😡 https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/23787275.broughton-relays-messages-venkys-tomassons-future/

What a top guy. Like you say a hard read when you hear how his departure was handled so disgracefully. Yet his affection for the club and fans still shines through. What a side that was under Sparky as well. Thanks Ryan, Rovers legend 💙🤍

Finished 2-1 . Just the 14 minutes injury time played 😮😮

11 minutes of injury time and still playing !

Got a feeling it will be the Cardiff cup match when we see Sigurdsson. Ennis possibly on the bench before then. Hope Telalovic gets some game time tonight for the U21s

Elliott Jackson replacing Rich Sharpe as new Rovers reporter.

If ever proof were needed that a week is a long time in football, I think Rovers have just confirmed the fact. From the euphoria of an excellent dogged display against Watford and THAT Hedges goal , coupled with our largest ever away win in the cup, to a disappointing result (though not display by all accounts) and THAT Hedges miss yesterday. Along with a transfer window that may take a little while yet to determine it's success or otherwise, I think the jury is still out. It's a long old season and the fact the Nobbers are top at the moment , along with some strange results yesterday, show there is nothing to really fear in this league

Exactly. I know emotions run high during and just after a game, and rightly so. But let's get a grip, a two week break now, hopefully seeing some behind closed doors games to get the likes of the new lad up front, Sigurdsson and Ennis up to speed and JRC back Things aren't as bad as they seem right now after that.

Cullen scores for Swansea today. Also watching the Sunderland game. Southampton defensively (as with all Martins teams) really poor. Dack I'm afraid looks finished. Done nothing of note apart from giving away a stonewall penalty which the ref missed. Edit Then he scores !

Quite a telling stat this ....

Cardiff at home - take that

Don't care who the opposition is, that is some performance from Rovers. Thoroughly professional 👋👋👋
