v Stoke City (a) - 12/3/2025, k/o 20.00

[Forever Blue]

Subs on 64 mins. 
 

He keeps us guessing. He’s a fascinating manager.

Reckon he’d love a stint at LAFC, Hollywood probably very attractive to him.

Think he could end up in the MLS next season. Rangers fans were right about him

Is she a girl or is she a woman?

Three substitutes that I agree with, shame we didn't start with them.

Could definitely see him in the MLS.

You don’t start with subs. 

[Tom]

I want to eat these words but 25 minutes left and not at any point have I had any sort of expectation or even hope of getting anything after their goal.

Absolutely flaccid stuff 

[yankfan]

Sanderson down now. Change in formation to be forced?  No need for 5 defenders when we’re down 1 

[TheFinalCountdown]

Still persisting with 3 at the back. We're not used to it/ seeing any benefit.

Pishmail.

[jim mk2]

This is as bad as the Derby second half. No pressure, no creativity, no apparent hope of us scoring 

[London blue]

Just glanced at the game. Watched our entire midfield chase shadows like headless chickens for a full 10 seconds.

Don't get it twisted, we're not being outfought or outbattled. We're getting outplayed.

We're so shite this lot aren't even bothering running the clock down

[G Somerset Rover]

This superpower of ours to not even remotely threaten the opposition goal when losing really is so impressive.

The manager has contributed fuck all this half except the subs and even then didn’t seem to understand why he was making them. 

[DE.]

Still can't get over that we're regularly playing a 33 year old who Plymouth gifted us as a starter. Even if we assume Tronstad is still getting up to speed, is JRC that bad that he can't get ahead of Forshaw?

[RutlandRover]

Passing is so disjointed. Nobody looks like they know where they need to be. No flow, no intent, just utter utter dross.

[Hasta]

FFS lads stop wanting it too much.

[davulsukur]

Dennis, lazy.

[G Somerset Rover]

Sam Gallagher coming on.

2-0 incoming.

[B16Rover]

Gally on, here we go

Sums it up perfectly. Cannot remember the last time we’ve looked this toothless. 

[joey_big_nose]

There are few things I am more sure of than Gallagher will score in this game.

[norwichblue]

God this is absolute shite.

[jim mk2]

Here comes Sam to score the 2nd 

[RutlandRover]

Worst moment of the season incoming. Gallagher 30 yarder to destroy any lingering hopes of the playoffs and finally kill us off.
