Flag up but another smart save from Pears.

Which CF in the Academy are anywhere near ready for first team football?

Tyjon would be the obvious one. All the talk before the season about how important it was for him to be in and around the squad and has he even been on the bench this season?

He’s going in January isn’t he?

Good save Pears; well offside though it still seems too easy to pass through us 

I think Miller has lost their forward every time they've come at us, we're just lucky that they're yet to stay onside.

it looks likely, but why take him to Middlesbrough and then have 2 wingers on the bench ahead of him?

Possibly, I haven't followed him really. That said, if he does leave then never playing him has probably contributed to that no? 

The articles in the summer suggested he was sticking around because he was going to be in and around the first team from what I remember.

[RTM08]

We're growing into this a bit, some good football but poor final balls.

To punish him for not signing a contract…😉

[neophox]

Henriksson works hard today, almost scores but defender in the way. Good so far by Rovers.

Suspect that was the carrot…he hasn’t signed though so he is down the pecking order 🤷‍♂️

gudjonson would have scored from that cantwell ball in,henrikson was waiting for it unfortunately instead of anticipating

Tyjon would make more sense than having 2 wingers on the bench when we play without them

I suspect Tyjon is being punished for not signing a contract.

[davulsukur]

Why on earth would Cantwell want to/be allowed to play with a necklace in his glove?

makes the decision to take him to Boro even stranger though

Why bring him along if we are not going to use him?

[Exiled_Rover]

For all their possession we've carved out the better chances. Just need to take one of them - story of our season.

necklane is inscribed "todd your are so sexy and handsome,love from todd"

Great little ball around the corner by Henriksson but Ohashi should do a lot better.

[RevidgeBlue]

Shocking from Ohashi again.

[neophox]

That's a poor finish from Ohashi, clean through... waste 

[RTM08]

How does he not even hit the target? That was woeful.

[Tom]

Really poor from Ohashi. Take it into the box and you get a good chance or a chance of a clip.

 

[OsloRover]

Ohashi what’s happened to your finishing??!

[neophox]

Great ball from Henriksson. Ismael seems angry

[Roverthechimp]

Ogashi - fuck me that was dreadful attempt (clean through 1 on 1 - missed the target by a mile)

Probably still trying to convince him to sign on so they're dangling the carrot.

I've just seen the bench - assume Gueye is abroad having a medical?
