I am unsure why you (and others) are getting so precious about what I have said. I am not criticising you, I said fair play for knowing that a signing was imminent, but without knowing the name, that its hardly a massive scoop.

Ismael said pre match that Cantwell was injured. 

Give over. You do nothing but hound certain forum posters

Bigger things at hand than whether Mercer named the lad or not. It’s boring now - let it go 

[Blue Greyhound]

One has destroyed the town and the other has destroyed the club.

[neophox]

I would say Trondstad would be the best leader but with him leaving there are not much left.

Going on players not proper.. not their fault the manager and people ahead are useless.

I don't know what you are trying to say

Val walked off without shaking hands. Is he gone???

Very noticeable.

Body language suggests so.

Team selection to force the issue.

[roversfan99]

Pathetic, pitiful display yet again.

Tronstad was the only player for us that resembled a Championship standard player.

Nice to see Jorgensen score but I didnt see the quick forward that was suggested. Very slow and very weak, constantly losing the ball.

Baradji an absolute liability again, constantly losing the ball and not someone you want in the trenches with you, bone idle. Ohashi again nowhere near good enough. O'Riordan miles away from the standard. Gardner Hickman and McLoughlin again showed why they had become surplus to requirements at previous clubs.

Powell with a nice assist but physically isnt ready to compete with Championship players. Doherty anonymous. Not fair to keep throwing all of these kids together.

Be worse now

You’re correct…

26.83% 😳

[Rover down South]

When he first took over, I made a big point that he stands on the touchline clueless. Nothing has changed nearly a year on. 

Last season we had Travis and he made all the difference. He was a proper captain on the pitch and could motivate the players around him, despite the manager stood there in a trance. When Travis was out, we struggled. 

McLoughlin and Cantwell can’t do it. There is no leadership at all.

[cesus]

If anybody in the management team or coaching team is confident of staying up, I call them a liar. I don't believe we have enough quality, fit and up for the fight players, and I 100% don't believe the coaching team can change anything.

The only reason it keeps coming back up is because people like you keep questioning me on it.

I haven't said that Mercer has done anything wrong and indeed said fair play to him for knowing that someone had signed.

he’s some guy him!

Cannot recall ever seeing a player so consistently out of his depth as to be subterranean.

I haven’t questioned you on anything. I don’t give a crap. I’m telling you it’s boring watching you going after the same posters time and time again for little things and asking you to reign it in - kindly, of course

I agree Jørgensen look a bit lightweight but I liked that he on a few occasions ran back to lay the ball off. That was class.

Certainly looked like that didn't it. I turned it back on just to see reactions. That was just cold walking away so much that he had to be chased and pulled on the arm to shake hands by the swans manager. Looked like that was it

[JPTSwindon]

Positives...

Lots of effort.

Negatives...

We are woeful.

Team selection was strange given the experience on the bench (Pickering etc).

Shameful, they've just allowed two of the dumbest men imaginable to run the club into the ground and employ a load of lower league bargain basement coaches and players.

Pasha and Gestede are todays Anderson and Kean.

 

I wouldn’t be surprised if he still has his fingers in the Rovers pie even now. If not, certainly some of his chums.

Forshaw gets too much grief on here. He’s not bad, I would start him over TGH every time.

How bad is T G-H??!! His pass completion rate is below abysmal. I just don't understand how he's playing at this level.

I thjlink you're being incredibly optimistic considering the last two mamagers have basically had to beg to leave.

Positive note, I do think Jorgenson has showed really good glimpses and think is going to be a good bit of business. Have high hopes for him.

We'll sell him in the summer after relegation.

Mcloughlin has an inability to kick a football, it is absolutely frightening!

He can't head it either.

[Inferi]

What a disgraceful performance that was. Made Swansea look like Real Madrid at times. They were so much better than us.

Even though he is just a symptom of the disease Ismael has obviously given up and needs to be sacked tonight. 

Edited 1 hour ago by Inferi

[Torgeir]

We had two footballers on the field tonight; Tronstad and Forshaw. 

Tactically we're a mess and look a really disjointed side. Very worried about the remainder of this season.

Jørgensen is lightweight and has to adapt quickly. He is better in a 4-5-1/4-3-3 but was probably 'too good to turn down' for us. 

Yeah........what to say.

He has been quite dreadful in the last 6 weeks.

I've really come around on TGH. League 1 player at best, decent engine thats about it.

I'd start forshaw on saturday. Thats how bad our recruitment has been in centre mid.
