  1. Past hour
  2. I felt like Toth was struggling a bit throughout the match I noticed fairly early on after a few goal kicks he seemed to be stretching his knee like it was bothering him. Wouldn't surprise me if he started with a bit of a knock and it's turned into something worse.
  3. Well, well what a change in fortunes. Honestly, I felt we were down and out after some dismal results and a complete lack of championship experience. 3 games later and we're looking transformed. Solid at the back, dangerous going forward, comfortably beating 2 of the best teams in the league away from home, and the new signings starting to settle in and look very good players at this level. All the more impressive that it's been done without Cantwell, who is by far our best player. The change in formation has been a game changer. Just suits the players more and keeps us tighter at the back. Of the new signings, Alebiousu has been a real find. Has to be one of the best RBs in the league right now. Miller is everything I like in a defender, McLaughlin is a cool head at the back, De Neve looks good at wing back, Gudjohnsen is firing, TGH is a workhorse in the middle, and Mori is very industrious. Still think there's more to come from him. Tavares and Henriksson yet to shine. Toth and Wharton injuries are a worry. Ironic that Toth could have sat on a deckchair all game last night as he had nothing to do...yet gets injured. There was always a danger of Wharton picking up an injury playing so many games in quick succession.
  4. Oh it's a disaster if Toth is injured. He's so much better than Pears it's untrue.
  5. He did have plenty of clean sheets by my recollection but that was more down to the defence than him making saves. He can make good saves, his main problem is indecision, he just doesn't know whether to go for the ball or stay on his line, so he ends up doing neither. He won't be a catastrophe but Toth definitely has won us some points by making spectacular stops. Given that we don't score many that has been important
  6. Just watched the highlights. Very smart run from Mori for the assist. Shields the defender off and picks out Yuki nicely. Think the best is yet to come from Mori while he finds his feet with the physicality of the EFL.
  7. Forum should be disbanding and insisting that an open elected system is required for a new body.
  8. Today
  9. Outstanding 3 points. I thought first half we were excellent and well worthy of the lead. Second half was a tough watch but to not concede a shot on target is credit to the team on how well organised we were. I never try to get too down after defeats and likewise will not get ahead of myself after these 3 wins. I think it was after the Sheff Utd game I made a post saying I’d stick with the manager (as unpopular as he was then). I think we’re starting to see a system and style of play that suits these players. The injuries to Wharton and Toth and suspension to Tronstad are a real blow for Saturday. Fingers crossed they are not too serious but as we know with Scotty history would suggest he may be out for a little while. Lets hope not. Roll on Saturday!
  10. Into the living memory and it all gets exciting from here on in. Looking forward to hearing the opinions of those who remember this period with fondness like @bazza @Fred Cumpstey @jim mk2 @47er @Tyrone Shoelaces @GHD and no doubt countless others. As a nearly 40 year old Rovers fan myself I remember stories from my grandfather and also my dad (who would have started going in this period) some HUGE Rovers names. Clayton, Douglas, England, Newton, Ferguson, Harrison, Eckersley, Briggs, McGrath.... going to be an interesting list!
  11. Agree. sure he's having a great time over in Spain too. Tbh, he might do better coming on as a sub, up against tired players, with his trickery and the slightly more space afforded in La Liga. Could be more productive that way.
  12. Once we discover the extent of the injuries, I hope you go back on there and tell them to stop moaning (although I hope neither are injured but we just ain't that lucky)
  13. Also name one team in the championship that doesn't shithouse to run the time down. Every team does it we hate it when it's against us so fake or not we won 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️🔵⚪️
  14. From 13 minutes- they see plans B, C and D from VI which completely bemused Cifuentes.
  15. Good post. Nothing is secret the digital era - teams are studied for threats and weaknesses and managers will have been looking at how we've managed to win 3 in a row and act accordingly. Watch what Eustace does on Saturday Important that Cantwell comes back
  16. The squad is very poor and injuries will really hamper us but from what I have seen this season , the league is piss poor probably as bad as I have ever seen it !
  17. Well its hardly a new thing for us is it?
  18. Even if he ends up a squad player in La Liga, the boy's done good. He's not a failure if he isn't starting every week.
  19. He's a streaky manager. We'll go 4/5 unbeaten, followed by 4/5 losses. I don't think he'll ever be classed as a good manager for us, we'll just plod around mid-lower table.
  20. You don’t take your captain and your goalkeeper off with “ fake injuries “.

  22. Jury still out for me.Cant quite get my Head around these series of losses and then we go on a winning streak..strange to say the least!
  23. Sadly you know the Toth one will be a bad one.
  24. Happy birthday old friend Read the full article on the front page and let us know your thoughts.
