We really miss Trondstad badly tonight

It's literally the same side as the last game apart from one player and yet they're playing like a totally different team. Just endlessly hammering it away over and over again and giving possession back to QPR. It's so brainless!!!

Yeah......but look who that 1 player is.

Well at least Pratt still looks decent. Not just a flash in the pan.

Agreed.

We must have other kids in the Academy who could do a better job than what we're seeing?

This team and crowd/atmosphere tonight is everything that Venkys deserve, utter cunts

To be fair our most important player. 

But really its just the dynamic. QPR are sitting deep and giving no space. PNE came out more so we could work things down the wings in the gaps. Why were so much better away imo.

[neophox]

No Henriksson today?

[neophox]

Ohashi header almost 

[Elrovers]

Not a great first half. On another night Gudjohnsen is scoring that. But overall hasn’t been great. Need to get control of this game and step it up in the second half.

Not in the squad. No idea why but let's be honest, he's not changing the game in our favour. Highly likely he'd have been sent off for 2 yellows the way this game has gone.

[Angry_Pirate]

That. Was. Fucking. Shit.

[BankEnd Rover]

No word of a lie, that is the worst 45 minutes of football I've ever seen.

We've literally lost every duel, Montgomery, Hickman, Miller and McLaughlin have been awful.

 

 

[NJRover]

Good move for our one chance so should give QPR a warning but my goodness why is the ball like lava to our guys?!

Yeah not on the bench...

I guess Baradji will get a crack soon. Looks a big powerful central runner which could make a difference in a game like this.

Almost? Blimey we are clutching at straws 🤣

What a shite half of football. 

[moerpho]

Horrible first half. We have no midfield. Get Forshaw and Baradji on 2nd half. Pratt the only one who can be plased with himself. Hoping for a better 2nd half and a home win in a dreary game.

[norwichblue]

Give Barajdi a run please Val. Need something, anything!

Based on his cameo the other day he's nowhere near the fitness levels needed to be that.

Montgomery sadly is out of his depth.

[doctorryan]

1 of the 2 in centre midfield must be changed.

I don’t think he even jogged against Preston let alone ran!

But he surely cannot be worse than Hickman or Montgomery. That CM pairing wouldn’t look out of place in league two. 

[yankfan]

Pretty dismal first half. Best chance somehow fell to us and completely squandered by Gudjohnsen. Will be lucky to get anything from this without improvement in the second half. Would like to see Bradaji in the second half. We’re getting absolutely run in the middle of the park.

He seemed a bit lazy on and around the ball, but was covering a lot of ground off the ball. 

[DE.]

Positives, we aren't losing and have half time to reset. A new gameplan needed for the next 45, because that was dire. So frustrating that we don't seem to be able to play properly at Ewood. We can't go through the whole season relying on away games for points. 

Still all to play for at least, and with the scores tied fortunately things can change in an instant in this league.

 Crazy isn't it...do we have a doppleganger side who only play away from Ewood???
