Cantwell almost scored another. Good save.

For a bloke whose USP is speed, Kargbo was slow to react then.

He's really not that fast, or at least hasn't been in any of the games we've seen.

Much better so far this half though.

[RoversClitheroe]

Please I beg - don't bring on Tavares.

Gardner Hickman personally think looks decent.

[AAK]

The team is just a bunch of cheap, unknown, career limited, lads. That’s about it, we are what we are, shouldn’t be surprised really. This side will be in a relegation battle I’ve no doubt about it, they aren’t good enough for anything else.

That shows how shit we are I suppose.

[B16Rover]

Id give Henriksson a run out.  Don't know why.  He's scored a few in Sweden and seemed to get forward in his few minutes at us, may bring Gudjohn's son into the game 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

What the feck was that Kargbo!!!

[Hasta]

Not sure who is worse here.

[davulsukur]

If Cantwell ever gets injured, we'll be in (even more) significant trouble.

Cool it. 

You can disagree and have an opinion one way or the other, but you can't be so confident in your own position.

They do it in other leagues, and it's a rare enough occurrence that relying on 'precedent' is really solid ground. 

Just let other people be frustrated by what was an undeniably frustrating sequence of events. Not only that, but regardless of how confident you are in the EFL's correct decision, there's also no denying the fact that Rovers got the short end of the stick in every aspect. 

 

Of course they did. That's life. Sometimes you benefit, sometimes you lose, but for the good of football overall and when tasked with making a decision for the integrity of the league, for once I agree with what the EFL did and feel they had no other option, and the whole 'representations' stage was a waste of everyone's time when it was clear from 5pm on the Saturday what the only realistic outcome was going to be. 

If we'd have been 1-0 down with 10 men we'd have got away with one and would be in the same position. 

There's one way of taking these sort of things out of the hands of Kieran McKenna, Ipswich players, the referee or a group of 'board members' at the EFL and that is to ensure that the Ewood pitch and drainage don't fail again in heavy rain. Never used to, now it has become an annual event. I wonder why that is.

 

 

[Tom]

Alebiousou is class 

[Exiled_Rover]

Who is their GK? He's had an absolute worldie. 

[B16Rover]

Id also like to understand how De Neve was the higher rated of the two fullbacks for Kortkijk, but Abeliousu is clearly a good player.  

[Silas]

Cantwell is loving a first time volley pass tonight. 

Like someone that's learnt a new special move button on Fifa and does it every time. 

[booth]

Please no 60th minute game breaking sub.

Id start him personally.

Why the fuck is Cantwell not staying forward, I don't want him anywhere near LB

[Lancaster Rover]

Can’t wait for Tavares to come on and give them a winner

[Lancaster Rover]

Ribeiros’ passing has been so loose tonight 

[TimmyJimmy]

Has 1:3 written all over it. Lose possession in midfield, goal on the counter. Push hard to equalise, sucker punch at the end.

[doctorryan]

There you go......

 

[Tom]

Andri that is awful, can’t be doing that and now we should be winning and are losing, abysmal 

[booth]

Buy cheap shite like Kargbo and that's what you'll get.

[TimmyJimmy]

Ahem!

[jim mk2]

Swansea 2-1. This team, under this manager, is going to get relegated.

[davulsukur]

Dreadful stuff from Kargbo there. Didn't even make an attempt to get back.
