v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26, 12:30pm k/o

[Exiled in Toronto Mk2]

We’d have been better off playing the current QEGS first 11

[benhben]

Apart from a brief run of form a couple of months ago we've returned to being dogshit. 

If we're honest though, performances and results are about representative of the standard of the squad and management these days. The summer transfer policy was the thing that finally broke us.

Still think well go down this year. 

[G Somerset Rover]

That relegation thread is going to be on fire at full time.

We’re 100% going down - nothing is changing my mind otherwise.

[Tugay-is-God]

The most predictable outcome of that free kick 

[RutlandRover]

When was the last time a rovers player scored from a free kick? Feels like years

I thought he'd been a lot better this season but does seem to be reverting back to last season's version.

For me he has been pretty good this season till his injury, but has looked well off it since hes been back. Lethargic, poor body language, too many touches and unnecessary risks. If I could swap him for a fit Gudjohnson (who i dont particularly rate but would at least balance the attack) I would.

[Blow-in]

Is Henriksson on the field?

I am not being sarcastic, I don't think he has touched the ball or been mentioned.

[cesus]

These two up top is an experiment that has well and truly run it's course. Has the manager not realised all our midfielders are having to commit to attack and one kick forward leaves us all over the place!!!! 

[RTM08]

I've seen enough now to add Baradji to the trash signings pile. Offers nothing but gets away with it because he's been injured and he's slightly less bad than some of the others.

[DanielMB]

Extremely harsh yellow on Moussa

[jim mk2]

I thought Wednesday on Monday was the worst I’d seen in years but Wrexham on Thursday is plumbing new depths. How could he pick the same team and expect a different outcome?

Last one I remember was Khadra from out wide 

[Old Codger]

Not at the races today, are we?

It is a straight continuation of the largely ineffective rabble-ball that we endured on Monday. 

Looking very much like a defeat today, unless something quite dramatic happens.... not holding my breath.

The kit is horrible too..

But COYBW Get your fingers out FFS 😞 

[yellowsubmarine]

We are always passing the ball to a forward player with their back towards goal. And the back three especially McLoughlin holds on to the ball too long for my liking. Our football is so poor at the moment, painful to watch and can't believe this is Rovers.

He is utterly atrocious. Far below the standard required. Granted he isn't the only one, but my word, he should not be playing at this level in any capacity.

Retrospective ban hopefully 

[sharpysharps86]

Give me an Ollie Rathbone over Cantwell any day of the week.

[Neal]

What the fuck am I watching here?

Brereton scored one once since then didn't he?  Think it was deflected though

[RevidgeBlue]

The invisible man aka Sonny Tronstad doing what he does best.

Absolutely fuck all.

[roverandout]

Miller is honking

[DanielMB]

We do a lot of running but we have no quality on the ball what so ever.

I commented the other day against Sheff Weds that I was as threatening from the sofa as Ohashi/Henriksson. What on earth did Ismael see that made him think, ‘yeah let’s go with those two up top again.’

West Brom away 

[rock steady]

Moose tired and booked. Dangerous combo.
