[Archived] Northampton

[yellowsubmarine]

Bell put in more dangerous crosses than Conway.

[Tom]

Ref needs to book this keeper for timewasting instead of keep warning him 

[Bigdoggsteel]

Armstrong and Payne on at half time please

Lenihan is constantly 'back on the grass'. I am constantly backing Rovers in League One at odds against.

This feels like the Wimbledon game.  They go 1 up and try every trick in the book to kill the game. 

 

 

 

 

And its working

Risky with one substitute already been used. Id go with Armstrong h/t and then Payne 70 mins or something.

I'd agree but would be foolish to use all subs with a half still to play don't you think? I'd swap Armstrong for Conway and ask Bell to press forward as often as possible.

Samuel as ineffective as ever on the wing

Thought he was a stoner or something ??

[Tom]

Shocking half really appalling 

Conway needs to come off at halftime maybe Samuel as well just go for it

 

[yellowsubmarine]

We are shit at corners (both attacking and defending)

[Preben]

Three at the back, Bell out wide, anyone on for Conway

[benhben]

I think I'm faster than Conway. Can't get past a man. 

We've had about 8 corners and not won a header off any. Northampton all look 6ft plus

Seen it so many times at Ewood over the decades.

 

Let's hope for a revival in the next 45 minutes

You told us that Conway would have a stinker and our captain and arguably best player would go off with an injury that looks potentially serious?

[Fraserkirky]

I can't believe Conway is still getting a game. Looks 2 years past it to me.

Do we really need that comment at this time? ****

At least he tries. How's the much younger Samuel doing on the other side? Worse!

Painful half to watch. Northampton know exactly what they're doing - frustrating us.

[jim mk2]

 

Northampton had a good game plan against us in the match at Sixfields. Jimmy Floyd's done his homework

[philipl]

Really didn't need a practical demonstration for the Roverseas video guy of what I meant by Rovers can beat ourselves...

[Preben]

We have the ability, time to prove it.

 

[JacknOry]

What is all this told you so business on score predictions?

 

[tugayislegend]

We will win this, we finally have quality on then bench, can see payne making an impact and Armstrong too later in game

[blueboy3333]

Northampton have done a number on us. Cynical time-wasting football but its too good for us. Id be surprised if both samuel and conway come out for the 2nd half. NTFC are a big team and we're playing into their hands. Bring back tinkerman Tony cos he's picked the wrong wingers!
