  1. Let’s be honest whether you think he’s naive, lacks end product or whatever, nobody would have expected 3 goals, 2 assists (plus a penalty won and a huge hand in Dack’s goal) all by mid January from a kid we picked up presumably on peanuts for the youth set up. How much did Brereton contribute in his first half season (or 2 full seasons) here, or even Armstrong in his first half season in this league, even Rothwell who always looked a threat took a while to start delivering. Whilst the lad may at times hold it too long and not capitalise on his runs he’s also produced the goods by being in the right place to finish moves. Let’s not forget he’s also been dealing (admirably) with a tragedy in his personal life. Delighted he’s a Rovers player and hope he continues to develop.
  2. He just wanted to be the shootout hero, Jason’s mamma didn’t raise no fool
  3. Infurtiating comments, full on self preservation mode, we aren’t winning because of chances we are missing or ‘not my fault mate’ in other words
  4. You know none of this is a new phenomenon. Glenn and Ste had to lock the board down after some defeats in the Souness era if you remember
  5. Buckley is too scared of the keeper there, poor
  6. Stunning save but Dack shouldn’t give him a chance
  7. Think we’ll get a goal as they sit back more but this just feels like Tony throwing things at it and hoping something works, no real plan or tactics.
  8. He set up one of our best chances with some great skill and a great pass to Buckley
  9. Great running from Dolan, looked a foul but half a second too slow releasing the ball
  10. The lad never looked confident shooting but we just backed off and backed off till he had no option!
  11. Pears, that’s abysmal mate, shocking
  12. Did you type this after the shot that probably wouldn’t have even reached?
  13. Nice by Dolan, Brereton squaring to nobody was interesting
  14. 2 hospital balls to Travis already from Buckley and Brereton, we could really do with him not getting an injury
  15. That was on Johnson for me, far too easy
  16. Lucky to be level, awful defending but worse finishing
  17. Buckley tried to knock it past their winger then and was so easily knocked off it
  18. I see Ben Shitehawk isn’t in the squad for them, looks like he’s on the move
  19. I would have preferred someone other than Buckley at right back and Davenport in to keep building a partnership with Travis
  20. Special this lad, not only his talent which was on show for Dack’s goal but following him on Twitter he’s turned his pain of losing his best mate into a positive and is trying to help others with mental health. An absolute star
  21. Imagine there’s more to that story, what’s he done now?
