Surely chuck Stokes on - we need a win.

[skous18]

Coyle is saving the subs for the last 2 minutes. Lol

Come on Senior, do your job get this clown sacked immediately.

[West Yorks Rover]

Burton losing 1-0

[G Somerset Rover]

Brings on Conway for a striker. Bloke is a fraud.

[Tom]

Woeful result

A game there for the taking and the brain dead one can't sort it

Subs as usual negatively impact us

[davefarnworth]

Going down. Must win game

[Husky]

I guess in Coylio's mind that will go down as a good point against a Big rich club and England's 2nd Capital wouldn't you know.

[West Yorks Rover]

The only good thing is Burton and Bristol losing, those two are on terrible runs and with Rotherham all but down,

we might just have a chance, even with the burden of Coyle in charge.

3 from those 4 to go down.

[Gav]

Decent result on paper, Brum are only 3 wins off the playoffs and we've one foot in league 1.

Onwards and downwards

[Tom]

Conway for Gallagher - why?

Guthrie for Akpan - why?

Akpan for me was man of the match, somebody fancied a laugh and gave t Feeney

[MGAndy]

were cardiff below us when they hired warnock?

[LewisF]

were cardiff below us when they hired warnock?

I think so yeah

Think we were 22nd and Cardiff were 23rd at the time

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

2nd from bottom.

[tomphil]

A hard fought point Coyle will proclaim, individual mistakes or we would have won he'll crow. A point closer to safety the head in the sands will shout on facebook, telegraph and Roverstalk despite dropping another place.

No need to sign anyone we've not lost spins the new Venky stooge.

FACT = Another winnable game made a balls of !

[G Somerset Rover]

No doubt the reporters won't even ask him why he took off a striker and didn't bring one on.

[RevidgeBlue]

Conway for Gallagher - why?

Guthrie for Akpan - why?

Akpan for me was man of the match, somebody fancied a laugh and gave t Feeney

Didn't think Feeney was too bad today but agree with you completely about the subs, fairly inexplicable and we lost momentum thereafter. Conway is so slow these days it's unreal.

Signs of potential from Nyambe today but little to enthuse about apart from that. Akpan was OK as well. Steele is such a weird keeper, couple of stupendous saves but such an elementary error for their penalty.

Not good enough overall, Coyle needs to go now or it could be too late for anyone else to rescue the situation.

[Tom]

Agree rev Feeney was ok but Akpan better

For me there is no footballing reason to bring Akpan off and leave Lowe on, the bloke is protected beyond belief with another game passing him by.

Conway got the ball twice and lost it twice.

League table

[DE.]

Conway has always been slow tbf, but with the team in its current state he's bound to have less space which probably makes him look even more sluggish than usual.

[chaddyrovers]

We played better second half and Feeney was our best player today. Always taking his man and crossing.

Coyle settled for a point after 85

Mins. Take Gallagher off for Conway.

Birmingham werent that good and there for taking second half and we didnt take our chances.

Coyle tactics are poor.

We need 3 or 4 signings.

Big week for Rovers and will Senior be able to these key decisions.

[rigger]

Some people are saying todays game was , Must win. Personally I think our must win games are, Wigan, Burton, Bristol and Rotherham

[G Somerset Rover]

Got to be something in the consistent poor use of subs and being happy for a point since these shysters came in. Too much of a coincidence for there not to be.

[tomphil]

You wouldn't exactly hang your hat on winning those, any of them. It's a relegation fight so they are all must win.
