v Middlesbrough (h) - 24/1/22

[RoverDom]

Gonna feel like 2 hours the end of this game.

This will be a very long 15 mins or so

Butterworth looks like he’s running through Treacle 

I've always thought he had that about him. Seems leggy as soon as he comes on.

We can’t play another 10-15 like this. We can’t get out of our own third. Need a change in midfield - Davenport on please.

[yankfan]

Butterworth a step behind 

[DE.]

I really don't like how deep we're sitting. We're playing like the extra stoppage didn't happen and there's only 5-10 minutes left. 

[Tugay-is-God]

Need the crowd to play their part as well to see this out.

What's wrong with him? Does he want to play or not?

[booth]

This is where we miss Dolan to come on with fresh legs and give them something to think about.

Shades of years gone by under Mowbray. I’d get Ayala on for some experience as well as Davenport.

Butterworth looks a yard short on pace compared to earlier in the season.

He's playing like Gallagher did against Hull.

[yankfan]

Rather see Ayala on here than Johnson. At least he will touch the ball.

Butterworth is putting in one of the laziest performances I’ve ever seen. Disgraceful.

Butterworth looks fucked already.. he's only been on 10 mins. 

[jim mk2]

Butterworth ambling around like it's a practice match

Darragh has been first class tonight. Lead the lads like a true warrior.

He's almost the old head of this team. Think he's taken on the responsibility fantastically, it's only made him better.

I was gonna make a similar comment. May have a small injury problem at the moment or just lately, might be really unfit due to not playing enough, or might just have a poor attitude.

Would almost prefer Ayala in defence and Lenihan alongside Trav.

[joey_big_nose]

Is Gallagher the new Jason Roberts?

[booth]

Why did Johnson take a touch then?

[RoverDom]

Bring this gally every game

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

No way we're seeing this out 

[Tugay-is-God]

Gally offside for the goal? Looks like it could've be one that VAR ruled out.

[neophox]

What is Butterworth doing? Needs to work harder.
