Miller looks a decent player. Confident and strong on the ball. 

Arial threat and a long throw. He’s looking promising 

[Darwen Rover 007]

They can't handle Kargbo.. 

[DE.]

Most frustrating thing is that WBA don't even look very good. Bang average. We're just worse. 

[superniko]

A suspected we have zero attacking threat in this team. 
Solid enough, but no creativity at all. We need more quality not quantity up front 

[moerpho]

Miller looks a player and Kargbo should always start

[roverandout]

According to chaddy we don't need a striker 

[Crozzy]

Is it Mark Albrighton? Sounds like him

[Rover down South]

Big fan of Miller already. Covering a lot of ground. 

[Old Codger]

We aren't scoring here if we play till the end of the season. No threat whatsoever.

Hendricksson was the free man. Completely misjudged it, that allowed it to bounce and become a problem. 

Conversely - the CB who’s probably meant to be meeting first ball is totally absent and second to the ball. Agreed that Henriksson misjudged it but I think CBs should take ownership of a long throw that basically hits the middle of the box.

Why what's he done other than overhit several crosses?

Can't wait for Chaddy to come on an tell us this is the toothless bullshit VI requested.

They thought it was a penalty.

easy to say 

[yankfan]

Need a right winger…we all know this. Cantwell sorely missed. Kargbo should start in the left. Hard to blame the strikers when there’s been such poor wide play and no creativity in the build up. 

[LDRover]

Tough viewing this

I would say Marc Overmars without talent, he seems the exact opposite of Dolan. If Dolan had Kargbo's pace he would be with City or Arsenal.

I’m just in the mood for criticising, pissed off with it all.

[yankfan]

Ref blows a foul for two wba players colliding with each other 

[Bohinen1983]

They fucking jumped into each other!!!

[Bohinen1983]

Officials are absolutely horrific

It’s pretty easy to do as well Bazza, you just have to put your hand in your pocket and reinvest some of the £40m you recoup over the last few years.

Ref has decided this game.

Didn't do his job for their goal and didn't give us a stonewall pen.

Been v even otherwise.

[LDRover]

So, their two CHs can stop the game from clashing heads and then the dropped ball is given uncontested to the keeper.

If that's how it goes it's a great way of alleviating late pressure in a game.

Ref is awful but rovers have been awfuller
