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

You know what makes it worse, the fact that I’m not even in the slightest bit angry. Its apathetic and it’s very very sad all round. 

[Devon Rover]

There is just no enjoyment at all in following this club anymore. I need to stop watching the games for my own wellbeing. As, really, unless and until the owners leave, this is a zombie club (as others have said). Not alive, existing, no joy. Time for me to watch another team whilst keeping an eye on the Rovers news. Any more than that is just painful - especially while a few thousand well intentioned still pay their money to prop up the Venkys regime. 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

PATHETIC.

I stopped caring 6 months ago. I very rarely watch rovers games anymore.  I used to religiously watch them

Watching second half today he already has downed tools...

And Sheffield.........

[chaddyrovers]

Pathetic performance and result. 

Should have freshen the team with 2 or 3 changes. Team looks tired. Created not enough. 

Had Baradji score might have different. 

Hope Litherland's injury isn't to bad.

Pears should be dropped and Toth back in for Charlton.

Miller is simply not a footballer. Completely inept. Atcheson should start next game ahead of him, who looked way ahead of Miller technically.

Cantwell needs selling, never mind dropping. They're a better team without the resident show pony.

McLoughlin a clear downgrade on what we had at CB last season.

Hedges back to being Hedges we all know. Pickering ineffective as his replacement.

Tronstad looks to have given up.

Baradji improved in the 2nd half but again, really poor overall.

Henriksson, I feel for being shunted up front and out of position, but again, completely useless.

Ohashi, for all his effort has no intelligence. Terrible first touch, zero goal threat.

Pratt and Litherland - no real blame attached to them. They're inexperienced young academy lads chucked in at the deep end.

All in all - relegation looms.

[Hasta]

Horrific performance.

McLaughlin (I think) horrendous for the first goal along with Pears. After that just no creative idea. Ohashi is so limited. Henrikson looks like he has won a raffle to play.

Batadji was better second half but shocking first half. Hedges was Hedges. Litherland is out of position and slows us down..it was all awful.

Problem is the post Christmas slump has now set in. In previous seasons that has seen us fall away from the playoffs. This year it could be much much worse.

Gueye is shite, but we can't score and is a different option. It's terrible club, man management that we cant even field him despite our precarious position. Or don't have an alternative academy prospect to Henrikson.

[TimmyJimmy]

As bad as it gets. I so do not recognise this club. I was going to say my club but who am I kidding. Refused to attend home games a long time back but the way I feel right now I'm not watching any match again full stop.  I'll be back when it's Blackburn Rovers again. Final answer.

[G Somerset Rover]

Anybody buying a half season ticket needs sectioning.

[RevidgeBlue]

Arguably a new low in a series of lows under this ownership.

Getting absolutely humiliated by Wrexham in front of the watching world on live TV whilst wearing some cast off PNE strips from Sports Direct.

The gig is up looking at that today.

Hopefully game is postponed or hopefully a new manager is at the helm and a set of experienced championship pros instead of this shite

Agree with all of the above - Has Miller actually had a good game for us yet? 

[Lancaster Rover]

Today feels a much lower ebb than the Coyle season

3 years ago we beat Wrexham here in our run to the fa cup quarter final.  They were league 2 I think. Now we are losing against them in the same league 

It's actually just under 2 years ago. They will reach the Prem before we even make the playoffs, and they started in non league with fuck all history and a far smaller fanbase. Their owners aren't even as wealthy as ours.

Proper ownership is everything. Their owners didn't understand football either, but they were savvy enough to put proper football people in charge and back them. Our lot already had one of the best operators in English football and fucked him off for corrupt agents. Then have employed arrogance in their ownership ever since despite clearly learning nothing about football even after all this time.

Pears made it difficult for us. Think we were after another dull 0-0 game and onto the next one but the players and manager didn’t show up for this one. 

[Eternal Optimist]

I’m usually quite enthusiastic in life but that performance was absolutely abysmal…….they are getting worse with each and every game 🙄

Not a single player deserves any level of praise today! You’d never guess they were professional footballers as none of them have the ability to even pass a football, I dread to think what the passing accuracy was today….low would be a perfect guess

I know we don’t have any options but I’d love to see Miller dropped what does he do? he gives the ball away every time he attempts a pass, commits foul after foul and throws his arms around! 

Just shocking 😡

Fella needs sacking for playing for draws at home, absolute loser.

Slightly disingenuous to say a club formed 11 years before ours and with multiple European appearances has no history.

I fully agree. He's not captain material and he's not that good a player.  I'd sell him in the summer 

On his day hes very good imo, but with injuries and his mood those days can be far apart, and not someone you want when things are going against you. And he's on double the money that anyone else is on.

Millers a committed defender and been significant part of our quite good defensive record.

But on the ball he is a total liability. I cant fathom why we put him at RWB.

[Bohinen1983]

Gone from players like Travis, Wharton, Rothwell, Ayari - even Buckley and JRC  to the likes of Tavares, Baradji, Foreshaw and Cantwell.  Cantwells not fit to lace Rothwells boots- shit!

No mention of the owners, backroom staff, coach, Chaddy ?

It matters not which day “we roll “onto ..nothing  will change with this abominable setup .

Cant believe to can’t see that …but, hey ho.

To be fair he’s implied he thinks the manager got it wrong with selection today

Tell you what ladies and gents, we are in big fucking trouble!
