Hull away

Bell surely has to be first choice left back until he proves otherwise now

I agree. He's waited months for his chance and he's definitely taking it now!

How’s @BradDacks40, boss? “He’s told me that he’s okay, it’s nothing serious. There’s a bit of swelling but there’s no twist, so fingers crossed he’ll be ready to go again in a couple of days.”

Lets hope its not serious  and its just a knock but dont be so pedantic and smug too soon.

yes but he on the pitch which he would not be if it was serious. 

 

[JacknOry]

TM and the medical team would not let him on the pitch surely if it was anything to worry about.

[chaddyrovers]

it appears Evans was our best player and the best game he ever had in a Rovers shirt

We got a lucky break today Mark. On another day we’d have had a sucker punch.

Trust had nothing to do with it.

On another day we'd have thrashed them, actually.

[JacknOry]

Have to say that Evans had an excellent game for me and was MOM,

Armstrongs pace is going to cause problems for a lot of teams this season - what a snip.

Lenihan the usual rock at the back.

Nyambe just gets better and better.

LB is Bells to lose now.

Raya - what a stop.

 

Those four (excluding Evans) are all young - what will they be worth in todays market after a good season? Then add Dack into that too.

 

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

That's a good result to top off a very good week for the club. It sounds like we played a lot of good football but failed to take advantage. We need to get better at finding the back of the net.

We should have won the other two as well - we have nothing to fear in this league.

[Ossydave]

Simply, simply lovely 

Armchair boys sit down shut up excellent vocal backing 

[JacknOry]

We really needed that win to keep these boys confidence humming along nicely. Undefeated in how many matches now? 

Really proud of the boys, Hull were pretty awful but winning away anywhere is an excellent result.

If we had a Rhodes in his prime in this team we would score a hell of a lot more. Need someone who can stick in the net.

Rhodes in his prime would never have created the space and opportunities for Dack and others that Graham and Armstrong do though. 

[chaddyrovers]

1st time this season for one of these

 

[Butty]

Dominant. 1-0 wasn't a true reflection of the game. Fully deserved the win. Get in there!!! 

[RV Blue]

Bell & Lenihan men of the match. Lenihan is a premier league player in waiting. Great result.

[Drover]

Great win and great backing in the away end.

Seen a few people knock Palmer on here. I thought he actually did well first half, opened them up a few times, second half not as good but still.

Also until graham came on the pitch he was Rayas only outlet. Every long ball from the back was aimed at him and he won a fair few. 

He is by no means the finished article but more positive than negative for me.

Played well all in all and game should have been 2 or 3 out of hulls reach by 70 mins, Bennett's chance especially.

Edit- also worth pointing out hull are one of the worst teams I've seen play for a while. Devoid of quality.

Not the first time that Bennett has missed simple tap ins. At least this time it didn't cost us.

Yep. Essentially an open goal

[Ossydave]

Benno deffo faked injury after that miss haha, he's still a legend though

Oldham away last season. He did brilliantly to get in up the bye line, took it around the keeper -then hit the post from about four yards out. My mum could have scored from there. Cost us a point for sure, maybe three as it was 0-0 at the time.

[Paul Mellelieu]

Well done Rovers.  The win will reduce the nerves going into the next home game.

[blueboy3333]

Did Bennett get an assist for the goal?

Anyway, great win away from home. Well done the boys.
