I’m as fucked off about the minutes as anybody, but kindly stop the outright harassment of O2G. He’s a bloke who’s written some minutes, not Ronnie fucking Biggs. Focus ire on the actual culprits.

Sounds like bollocks to me.

Ref has stopped play in Wrexham game for player getting hit by ball in the groin. This a new rule?

The U21s are also due to play Derby are some point today too

Definitely the case. Wrexham a team thats been on the up, Southampton a team that's been in the down and it shows in both performances. Southampton started brightly but faded very quickly. Wrexham really got into the game and have had much of thr better of it. Side note, gutted we never landed O'brien. Looks a player.

Same as last night player feels a hand on his back and dives. Technically a foul. I just don't like seeing it

did you actually say that? You obsessing over numbers again, Carter is back in 2 weeks and we have 3 options at right backs and one of those can play the centre back position just like Henning Berg did or Lucas Neill did during their time here. I have explained Gestede's comment more than once as you are obsessing over it. Yes I wanted Striker instead of number 10 but we signed a number 10. Also I expected Leonard to be loan out, if he is then bring in another striker but that's shouldn't be loan but a permanent signing. Ohashi and Gueye are my first 2 choices so that player would be third signing, if we aren't loaning Leonard and he is going stay and pay, fine no problem. We aren't short there, We have 3 options there in Ohashi, Gueye and Leonard, if Leonard leaves on loan then we need one., this is point you keep missing and you loved stockpilling loads of players. You need around 26/27 players in your squad and that what we currently have minus one right winger signing which is a priority.

Penalty Wrexham!

The Titanic springs to mind.

Southampton look quite nervy. I suppose its unsurprising given how their confidence will have been shot to pieces after last season.

Southampton have a literal giant at centre half. That Quarshie bloke is a monster! Also, Wrexham hit the bar!

Wrexham should been ahead at St's Mary Stadium

We want Venkys Out! Nothing else matters!

You need investment for that though.

Jeez, grim reading... if only we'd have "expressed ourselves" a little better back in the spring.

Google not confident in a Rovers win 😢

Moving to a back 3 to park the bus etc, tactical tweaks, those are examples of versatility which I said can be very useful. What I am saying is that we shouldnt sign less players because of that versatility. Because one player cant play in 2 positions at the same time. Regarding Leonard, you was clutching at straws. Gestede said we planned to sign a striker. Most of us feel we need a striker. Including you. Now we seemingly will fail with that objective, you suggested that the reason behind that was in these last couple of months in which Leonard hasnt been even with Ismael, perhaps there has been a sudden realisation that Leonard is Championship standard and crucially set to avoid continued further injury complications. I would respect your opinion more if you stuck to your guns. I wanted us to bring in a striker, if we dont then I feel we will be short in that area compared to what I wanted. You seemingly share that opinion. Just stick to it, you dont have to parrot the club, shrug your shoulders and assume that Ismael/Gestede are infallible, or come up with nonsensical reasons.

Sadly, I think we'll feel battered, bruised and depressed after today's game so If I was on holiday I'd be making the most of it and wouldn't bother trying to find a stream. If it's your first time in Tenerife, pretty sure it wont be your last! One of our favoured places for a winter break. Enjoy!

Straight from Bala's heart ❤️ No one can even be bothered to sit down for 5mins and write a 200 word message to the fans. They think that little of us.

B

He was a bit lightweight in the days of killer fullbacks. He’d have done much better under today’s refereeing attitudes.

On Travis - I do expect him to go this window, not based on anything other than a gut feeling. I imagine that the likes of Suhail and Gestede aren't overly fond of him because he was such a supporter of Eustace, and he appears to actually care about the fans and the club...something neither of those two seem to give two hoots about. Trav to Derby makes a lot of sense. I'd be gutted if he went there though, probably more so than any other championship side. I don't really have any ill feeling towards Derby, but the fact that they've taken so many ex-Rovers now is just so disappointing, especially when it could've been so easily avoided. Outside of that situation and the obvious need for a RW, we appear really short up front. They've not replaced Weimann or Dolan really, while Leonard looks unlikely to ever make the step up either. Where will the goals come from if Ohashi and Gueye are not firing?

So true! Barrie Ratcliffe obviously fell short of the other three but a lovely bloke and we used to buy our meat from him on his 3 day Blackburn Market stall.
