I can’t understand Cashin playing at left back if that is what we are intending to do. Either or Ribeiro or Pickering would be a better bet. Maybe it’s true that we have to pay a fine if he doesn’t play !

We are required to play him under the loan deal so have to shoe horn him in somewhere.  Last game if the season we will be fighting to stay up and he will be out center forward

Feels like a mens football team playing against a bunch of schoolkids - footballers versus headless chickens

Feels like some supporters are making a point of going and possibly bringing others.

And that's why we will never succeed with any form of protest (either fill the ground or boycott). Fanbase far too divided far too fickle. 

Can't quite understand why people support the regime still? 'We were shit in the 70s/80s therefore we must be shit now' folk that won't be told otherwise.

Christ we need a 2nd solid midfielder

Where's Garrett?

[Kjell]

At least the players did not turn up!

Venkys out!

[Ferrit]

Dross stuff as expected.

[sharpysharps86]

Sounds like only a matter of time before Watford score.

[G Somerset Rover]

What will be the excuse this time with a fair number of players back, Val?

Miller not used to playing as a regular right back

They are the very worst types they are too miserable to do anything but turn up and sit there in silence.

It's like they thrive off the misery and apathy but can't tear themselves away yet anybody who dares to dream otherwise is 'entitled'.

[Neal]

5 at the back but absolute panic stations and 0 organisation... 

 

 

Valerian Ismael.

You have to understand the mindset of a significant portion of those still going is that the owners are only responsible for the club still existing and putting eleven players in blue and white on the pitch each week. That's it. No actual ambition for success, just existence. They don't believe the fans or the legacy of the club deserves any more than that.

11 in blue and white halves - an off-the-shelf Macron kit, not a Rovers kit (we play in reversed halves). 

These owners can't even be bothered to get that detail right.

At least the manager was right about one thing……, We can’t compete.

What a fucking bleak existence 

[Exiled_Rover]

Ref has allowed them to barge us off the ball all day. Cashin blocks the run of a Watford player (as they both turn to run for the ball) and it's a free kick.

Why? Are you letting players be physical or not, ref?

We would compete if we had a good manager
