v Hull City (a) - 23/8/25

[Herbie6590]

Rovers travel to Boothferry Park…what? Oh…the KC…no? The MKM? Whatever…three points needed with a degree of urgency one senses…

Recent scorelines…one win in five for Rovers 👀 #DueOne

Defeat 3 of 7 in a row this.

Hull 2 Rovers 0

Have we ever lost our first four opening fixtures?

We definitely haven't lost our opening 4 league fixtures in a season.

Including cup, i think that is the case too.

I'd persevere with De Neve for now, he does at least seem to know where the net is. 

[...]

I'd like to see the same starters as Brum game. I think it's the best line up we've got tbh

[SpaceBarSlam]

Bleak times when you open the forum, see this thread and realise "Christ, less than a week to go till the next installment of misery".

Oli McBurnie bagged them a last minute winner today. Maybe we should have made inquiries about him. 

They've now already picked up 4 points which isn't bad considering many expect them to struggle with this embargo, etc.

You mean he wants the going rate?

We really need a win and keep doing it . It's crazy we have lost three in a row right at the start of the season.

Good idea can't believe no one ever thought of doing that!

[sharpysharps86]

Well I don't expect to see any new arrivals in time for this one, so pending injuries I reckon it'll be the same starting XI as Birmingham game, which is probably as good a team as can be managed right now.

Hull 1 - 1 Rovers (Ohashi)

 

[chaddyrovers]

my team 

                     Toth 

Alebiosu Hyam McLoughlin Ribeiro

Karbgo        Cantwell(C)      Hedges 

                      Ohashi

[B16Rover]

Going to get pumped by a team who can't sign players and still managed to have a better transfer window than us

True and absolutely embarrassing. Sometimes you're better to have decent wages available... vs bargain basement fees for relegated talent in poor European leagues... paying peanuts. That's not a strategy aimed for success, nor was it Brentford's model.

Alfie Devine has already bagged for Preston on loan. McBurnie hitting the ground running.......

Meanwhile I'm still waiting to see if Henriksson and De Neve can control a football.

We scraped the barrel last summer for Ohashi and Gueye and they just don't quite look good enough if we're being honest.... do they?

The result of this sign as cheap as possible exercise will be a full team that's simply not up to it all over.

I think Gestede is about to complete that puzzle.
