Rovers are 14th in terms of goals scored and 9th in terms of goals conceded. 

Rovers have keep 8 clean sheets in 24 games. Same number as Brentford. 

Rovers are 4th in form table(last 6 games)

Exactly. Hence the need to sign a goalscorer if we have any money, which from Mowbrays interview, sadly we do not. 14th in terms of goals scored with 31 goals, but only 22 without Dack, with only Wigan scoring fewer.

Mowbray said we don't have the sort of money it would take to replace him, so we have to find a way or 2 from the current squad we got. Ive told the way I would go and how I would play the team.

Interesting that no one appears to have mentioned Raya’s major blunder on Boxing Day. OK, they were 3 up at the time but if Walton had committed such a blooper, I’m sure he would get sheds load of criticism on here.

Another even more horrendous blooper from Raya again today. That’s 2 in 2 this week and cost them the match today.

Some results gone for us had we won. Brentford and Preston losing

Sadly, we never seem to be able to capitalise when results go our way.

We are always just "x" amount of points off "x" place.

Normlly starts with "We are just 3 points off 3rd!!"

Before getting too "We are just 3 points off 6th"

And then "Still only 5 points behind 6th!"

The gap never closes, we just gradually drift away.

Luton have lost their last 9 (yes 9) away from home, their last away win against? Yes, you guessed it.

I totally get that anyone can beat anyone in this league but, to paraphrase Mario Balotelli, why always us?

Also this "only 3 points off the play-offs" sounds a lot better on paper than in reality. There are 7 (SEVEN) teams above us all fighting for that 6th place.

Say we were in a last game of the season scenario. Assuming that none of the 7 teams above us were playing each other (which would make it a mathematical impossibility)

We'd still need an 11 goal swing, for us to take our 3 point win, and no less than 6-7 other results to go for us on the same day. Not happening!!!

A miss is as good as a mile!

*Scenario written before today's games have changed things (Millwall winning etc.)

Come on, we're only 4 points off 6th ?

Just watching highlights of the rest of the days games and we might slate our defence but hell fire theres been a lot worse out there today!

Well. that's a comfort!

There's some really strange results today in the Championship, but, once again, we couldn't take any advantage of them.

2 points from the last twelve is relegation form no matter how other clubs' defences perform.

Good news is there are clearly some teams worse off than ourselves plus our mini run has meant we have a massive cushion over the relegation places. Let's say they pick up as they seem to be doing and win 1 in 3, it's going to still take a whopping 12 games to catch us assuming we don't get another point. And whilst we don't look that likely to win at present we'll still be picking up the odd point and none of the bottom 3 are that good. Another year where I think we're safe despite being poor. 

Imo the season will see another lacklustre run until the final month or two when there's nothing to play for either way and we'll pick up again. Another wasted season under TM.
