Give it 5 minutes Gordon ;-)

5?

[Tom]

Right anything else on?

[AggyBlue]

Here comes the avalanche...

Robbo saw it coming

[bluebruce]

Robbo injured? So that's him, Rhodes, and Dann all injured who weren't before. Arguably our key players (Eastwood conceding immediately there), all before a massive crunch clash at Forest. Not a good omen. Who next, Cairney?

[davulsukur]

That's killed that one then. Negredo can p##s off as well,sick of that bloke.

[den]

Kilgallon!

[yoda]

bloody hoofball

[G Somerset Rover]

Good through ball yes. But shocking, shocking defending from Hanley. Why didn't he head it?

[Proudtobeblue&white]

He needs to put Rudy on !!!!!

[Bundesburn]

Heads have dropped. Need to get organised again.

[old darwen blue]

Right shackles off now lads let's go for it

[thenodrog]

Very poor defending from Grant Hanley

I'll attempt to defend him by pointing out how 'skiddy' the surface must be.

btw...We appear to have gone to pot now.

[Mike Graham]

Citeh fans pipe up for once..""where were you at Ewood Park" to the Rovers fans!!

[wolfie]

Don't know why Hanley didn't jus let Negredo run off side..?

[G Somerset Rover]

Henley not close enough again...

We really need to avoid a drubbing here so that we don't go to Forest lacking confidence.

[SoldierMo]

Cambell has been soooo poor

[thenodrog]

Robbo injured? So that's him, Rhodes, and Dann all injured who weren't before. Arguably our key players (Eastwood conceding immediately there), all before a massive crunch clash at Forest. Not a good omen. Who next, Cairney?

Nobody is injured except Evans.

[JAL]

Apart from Cairney we look a poor team.

[patrickvalery]

This half will now show just what the side is about. capitulate or show some steel? I won't be disappointed if Citeh bet us. But I will if we gift wrap it for them.

[Stuart]

I know City are a different gravy but what DOES Bowyer say to his players at half time?

[bluebruce]

Nobody is injured except Evans.

Not what the pundits said. They've described all three as injured.

I know City are a different gravy but what DOES Bowyer say to his players at half time?

Dunno, what did he say to them at Ewood against City when they came out and were MAGNIFICENT second half?

[Mike Graham]

I know City are a different gravy but what DOES Bowyer say to his players at half time?

I like Bowyer as a person and he clearly has values but as a manager I have never had confidence in him, probably said "smile for the cameras chaps".

[AdamRochina]

Shame i had a cheeky fiver on mancity halftime rovers full time would of won me about 500 quid lol

[bluebruce]

Apart from Cairney we look a poor team.

Don't agree at all, are you forgetting who we are playing against? First half it looked like an average lower half Prem team playing against a reasonable Championship outfit. Whilst it's actually one of the best teams around against a Championship outfit.

[thenodrog]

Cambell has been soooo poor

Correct. Maybe the reason that Rhodes is 'injured' eh? If he'd played and given a similar performance against Prem opposition his value would plummet.
