It's a real shame we suck at corners.

Harry Leonard's appearances since his 'comeback' have left a lot of questions about his future/ability (i know today is a difficult game, with no support for him) 

He's not good enough IMO

[yankfan]

Forshaw showing his ability with that poor attempt at a volley. . 

[London blue]

All entirely predictable and wholly informative of our squad.

[rovers11]

Not been good enough. Game changed when Tronstad went off. Forshaw offers nothing. 

[Tom]

Jim out!

[Penwortham Blue]

If Jim MK2 has travelled, we were on a hiding to nothing 😕

[Exiled_Rover]

Should have scored in the last few minutes - several really good chances spurned. 

[chaddyrovers]

Why didn't we start the second half like this instead the last 5 minutes

[booth]

Got them under pressure and they are at sixes and sevens only for Forshaw to provide the worst cross/shot I think I've ever seen. And now the ball is somewhere in Luton.

Season changed when we lost Travis.

[Ferrit]

Piss poor for the vast majority of this game and we deserved exactly what we’ve got - sod all.

He's not a #9 to lead the line - not at 20/1. Needs half a season in L1.

JRC probably should have scored there. 

Jrc should have been given more than 10 minutes. Sub made 30 minutes too late.

Can we not transfer him to Burnley? May seem a bit heavy handed, but just for a few months?

Half chances at best - created absolutely diddly squat

We need to play JRC in the middle before Forsaw.

Next time he threatens to go we need to weld him into his house.

[waynerovers]

Shame we waited until the last ten minutes to start playing.

Similar to them, then.

One GK error the difference between the sides. 

[sharpysharps86]

Really poor. Can't help but wonder if JRC for Tronstad would've been the better change...but that aside just really poor and today is another great example of Rovers squad getting exposed as massively punching above their weight.

Now looking like we need another midfielder alongside more attacking options this month.

He needs a loan 100% but still, for me, I don't think he's good enough.

[West Yorks Rover]

So we start to have a go at them on 87 mins and have loads of shots, bit late lads.

[booth]

Hyam almost scored at the death - goalmouth scramble and he stabbed at it, but straight to the keeper.

I think it was Hyam.

He's not that good either
