  1. Think well lose 1-2. Sammie with our goal. I just doubt this group of players has enough about them to get something against a promotion chasing side that won 6 nil last time out. Also reckon JE will switch to 3 at the back again. Predicted team: Pears Hyam McFadzean Wharton Brittain Tronstad Ayari Hedges Szmodics Dolan Gallagher
  2. Good point on its own. The majority of away draws in this league should be considered a point gained, such is the Championship. However, imagine if Rovers had actually beat Millwall and Plymouth. We'd basically be safe at this point and there would be much more positivity surrounding JE. Instead, I still think there's a big possibility of relegation due to the run-in. Sounds like it was a much more balanced team yesterday, more than likely down to the returns of Hedges, Tronstad and Pears. Hopefully we can keep a consistent group together between now and the end of the season. Gallagher's form when he came back from injury was promising but he's fallen off a cliff in recent weeks. Deserves dropping but the problem is who do you bring in? There's literally only Telalovic available to come in.
  3. I think regardless of if he stay up or not I can't see Sammie sticking around. He's dragged this team kicking and screaming throughout the season, and he has every right to want to move to a top end Championship club or possibly even have a crack at a bottom half Premier League club. His value will never be higher than it is now, and the club will no doubt be looking to sell him on this summer.
  4. One thing to cling onto is just how inconsistent Boro are this season. They can go and beat Leicester away and then lose at home to Norwich. Playoffs seems a little out of reach for them at this point, so who knows, maybe they won't be able to get themselves up for it. Says a lot that I'm hoping Boro have an off day to give us any chance of something from the game 😂😭. Ultimately I think we'll lose something like 2-0, offering very little in attack unfortunately. Maybe a bit early to predict a team but i'll have a go. I just don't see JE switching from 3 CB's away from home, so I'm expecting to see O'Riordan or Billy K start. Alternatively he could go with Chrisene as the left CB as I think that's where he started against Soke. If Tronstad and Hedges are back that is a massive boost, as I think Hedges energy getting up and down the pitch at wing back is crucial on the left. Predicted JE team: Pears O'Riordan Hyam Wharton Brittain Tronstad Buckley Hedges Szmodics Sigurdsson Gallagher The team I would consider going with: Pears Brittain Hyam Wharton Pickering Buckley Tronstad Hedges Gallagher Szmodics Sigurdsson
  5. What an utterly hopeless situation. If JE can't get this team up for games against our relegation rivals then what chance do we have of staying up when it comes to taking on teams in the top half, and even worse the top 4! Boro will have a field day against us next weekend, and I dread to think what will happen when we go up against the likes of Leicester, Leeds, Southampton and Ipswich. Dreadful. We are as good as gone I'm afraid, and its exactly what the club deserves for continued mismanagement and budget cutting.
  6. Monumental game in the season and for the future of the club, as will pretty much every game between now and the end of the season, but this feels especially important because it potentially provides a huge boost to the team if they can get their first win under JE. Plymouth seem to be in a bit of disarray of their own, sounds like their current manager is on borrowed time already. I wonder if they could end up sacking him and Schumacher ending up back there if Stoke sack him as well before the season is out! It wouldn't surprise me at all. Anyway, the game itself. I think (or maybe its just hope) that Rovers will win this one, 2-1 perhaps. I haven't the foggiest idea what the team will be but I'll attempt a prediction. Wahlstedt Hyam McFadzean Wharton Pickering Buckley Ayari Chrisene Szmodics Dolan Gallagher I really don't fancy Pickering at right wing back, but I suspect that's what he'll go with because I can't think of any other option other than sticking someone like Garrett there, unless Hedges somehow makes it. Regardless, that is a team that looks incredibly poor on paper, Szmodics aside. Might be able to do a job in League One....
  7. Absolutely woeful from start to finish. Never really looked like scoring and the one goal we did score was a gift from a misplaced Millwall pass. I'm sick to death of this club and it's players, bar a very small elite group that seem to genuinely care. Quite frankly, this team deserves to get relegated. They're the biggest bunch of soft touches I think I've ever seen as a Rovers side. The sad reality is, half of 'em won't care because they'll already be on to their agents about securing a move back to the Championship in the summer. The only one that deserves to stay in this league is Szmodics. Hyam gesturing to the crowd to calm down as he sluggishly meanders about with the ball in the 94th minute or whenever it was. Joke of a captain. I had hoped that Eustace would be a good shout, but he's looking more like the new Michael Appleton every week. Grim.
  8. I wouldn't trust this club to tell us the truth on anything these days.
  9. Yep, that just about sums it up. Leo in goal, no Tronstad. We are truly in the mud.
  10. Don't usually get to midweek games as I work in Liverpool, but I'm going to go to this one as I finish early on Tuesday. Eustace has to get a win eventually, and I think it'll come here. I still think we'll go down but we'll do enough here to scrape a win. 2-1. Szmodics and Gallagher. My predicted team: Pears Hyam McFadzean Wharton Brittain Tronstad Buckley Chrisene Szmodics Dolan Gallagher I don't think we can play 4 at the back if it means Brittain at full back. At least as a wing back we have Hyam to cover him on that side. Hopefully Tronstad is back. If not then Ayari should come in as his last two appearances have shown a marked improvement. Anyone but Moran. I'd rather play Billy K in the middle than him! With attacking players...we just don't seem to have any other options, do we? So it kind of has to be Dolan and Gallagher up top with Sammie playing off them.
  11. For the first time this season I genuinely think we're going down. Never thought it'd come to it this season but the way we've just failed continuously to win matches against teams below or around us, combined with having such a weak defence....this team are goners. Teams around us all fighting for their lives and Rovers players turn up with that first 20 - 30 mins today....utterly woeful. Plenty of fight in 'em for an FA cup game against a premier league side, but not in a crucial relegation 6 pointer. League One here we come.
  12. Oh dear, oh dear. Shambolic first 20 mins has cost us here. Moran to blame for both goals as well, so poor. I've changed my mind. We're as good as gone with our run in. Sorry state of affairs.
  13. Telalovic not in the U23s either, so possibly an injury or illness.....but the reality is that JE probably doesn't fancy him.
  14. Quite simply, don't lose. A win would be ideal obviously because I think we need 7 points from the next 3 to ease any relegation concerns after how last weekends results panned out. Feeling optimistic, I'll go for a tight 0-1 win, with backs against the wall for the last 20 minutes. My predicted team: Pears Hyam McFadzean Wharton Brittain Tronstad Buckley Chrisene Szmodics Dolan Gallagher If Gallagher doesn't start then there's a tough call to make. Perhaps shift Sammie further up and bring Moran or Sigurdsson in? Or we stick Billy K up top and he bags a hat-trick 😂🙏.
  15. Definitely get that impression. I doubt well ever be in a situation with JE where he is continuously moaning about off the pitch situations. As likeable as JDT was / is....it was becoming extremely irritating to hear that in every interview.
