That bench is horrifying. Not a single goal in them.

That’s an horrendous starting lineup

Guess the manager can't be blamed for what he has picked then.

Nothing wrong with the Baradji challenge. We should have been back in it.

I thought that was a foul myself if I'm honest. I'd want it given against us, it's a tackle from behind IMO. Maybe I need to see it again though

Left footed centre backs blah blah blah. It’s all bollocks. You need centre halves who don’t put the ball in their own net in that position, and don’t watch the man and let him have a free header when the ball is coming the other way. It’s basic defending.
If we have two Dom Hyams either side of a Danny Batth we don’t concede either of those goals. Might not be able to play a cultured ball up the left wing from the back though. 🙄

Are you suggesting prioritising attacking midfielders based on their ability to defend (don't ask why they need to defend!) and defenders on their ability to play the ball is a bad data driven approach?

Nearly 3-0 there, this is a disgraceful display. Up there with the worst of Steve Kean and Jerome Anderson's reign of hell.

[RTM08]

I can only assume they weren't expecting long throws reaching the first man there because that should have been 3-0.

[Blow-in]

Oh Cantwell is playing!

taking cornerd from both side 😕

We have poor players, we know that. But there's no excuse for being completely disorganised and a lack of fighting spirit. That is on the manager. And barely won a game at home. Manager has to go.

He won't as the manager here is not judged on winning or losing.

[booth]

Needs a big clearout from top to bottom, beginning with the owners.

That's gotta be one of the worst own goals I've ever seen, literally not a single Ipswich player in the box. What on earth was he thinking.

You can excuse an unlucky touch under pressure. This is just abysmal football.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Can we just concede the game now please...

He's the sort of player who'd be best suited to just having a kickabout with his mates and showing off.

To be fair to him he must look at the shit around him and think why bother?

By the same token, with the right formation I don't see why Tronstad, Cantwell, Baradji wouldn't be a solid midfield if they put the effort in.

Granted this stupid 3-5-2 is getting absolutely rinsed down the wings at the moment.

[roversinmyblood]

How could we possibly have known that Cashin would be terrible, oh wait all the Birmingham fans. 😡😡

I think Val needs to go, but I’d be worried about who they were bringing in. 
 

Any decent managers that are signed up to Unique Sports Group?

it matters not who the manager is,the regime just destroys what he tries to achieve,though tbf,val has`nt helped himself today with that formation

[StHelensRover]

Ipswich knocking it around in our half like it's a training match, they've dropped down to 2nd or 3rd gear after realising how easy this is. We need to get to HT and change it up asap. Get this Jorgensen fella on. Lot of pressure on him in the next few months, hope he can step up.

Left foot/right foot, don't really care but the need for Cashin as a signing (no matter how good or bad....seems like the latter though) didnt seem like a requirement to me when putting it in the other teams net is the bigget issue. 🙄

[B16Rover]

Ohashi just been clattered and Baradji barely looking up from his morning coffee as the break is on

Seen it twice. Played the ball.

Home decision in my opinion

Rovers commentators are the most biased I've ever come across.  Of course you expect some biasness but they're ultra deluded

They'd be ultra sacked if they weren't.
