  1. 3-0 now. Burnley struggling against Cov at the moment. Watch them nick a goal.
  2. The atrocities have also coincided with my other point that we overall, have a lacklustre bunch of players. So not really. If you think we're just as bad with Brereton then your cup is emptier than mine.
  3. Dack is only as good as the players in front of him. Stick a player like Pukki or Toney in front of him and they'd score a bucket load. Not sure about Gallagher as a target man as today he was just giving up before he'd even lost the ball, but I don't know why we don't play BBD up front when we need to.
  4. I'd have started Dolan but I still don't think it would have mattered. The only positions that looked strong on the teamsheet were Ayala and Hyam. Apart from that it looked like a shambles of a team and the bench options don't offer much in the way of changes. Fullbacks... oof. Midfield... oof oof. Forwards... Pass me the valium.
  5. But what else do you do? They could have played all week and wouldn't have scored. They played 60 seconds and conceded. A poor collection of players with a bunch of decent ones who bail them out occasionally.
  6. Brereton being out is a big miss as apart from his goals he is a handful for the opposition, even just running at them. It means they can't commit as much. Rotherham must have figured out pretty quickly our front two didn't have any chance of scoring but with Brereton there's always the chance of a worldie. But it's not just Brereton, we're missing other players and we should have signed a few by now. At the moment it's Mowbray's team with the addition of Morton and Hyam, but minus Lenihan, Nyambe and Johnson. I don't expect anything from forwards like Gallagher and Vale, along with a midfield with two young lads, a makeshift fullback and a fullback that's not good enough. So results like today aren't a surprise to me. It's more of a surprise when we win.
  7. Garrett and Morton in midfield. Vale and Gallagher upfront. That's got to be the worst teamsheet and forward line I've seen since Venkys arrived.
  8. False position when you look at the xG. Let's not forget we're missing a few players. If that team is played every week we're down at the bottom of the league. Criminal that obvious limitations in the squad weren't addressed 18 months ago, then 12 months ago, then 6 months ago.
  9. He's getting an undeserved free pass. And I don't buy that he wasn't here long enough to address the squad in Summer. However as soon as the January window opened, we should have been signing a fullback, a midfielder and a number 9. The buck stops at his door for not being more proactive. Venkys should have been pushing for it and offering money to push on. Rotherham haven't had a clean sheet in 7 games which tells you about the quality of our attacking options. The other beef I have with GB is that he shouldn't have appointed Tomasson if the club wasn't or couldn't sign players for his "project". It should have been a more pragmatic appointment considering the state of the squad.
  10. He threw the snowball that started the avalanche!
  11. Nah, no matter who manages Rovers they'll always have a set of tw@ts to deal with from above. VENKYS OUT!
  12. I think he's as frustrated as we are. He asked for a striker and Hirst was offered. Asked for a fullback and Mola was offered. Asked for a forward and got Szmodics. The best signing seems to be a sicknote. Go through the team he was left with and pick out the ones you'd keep. There won't be many. You don't win games without goalscorers but I understand the frustration, it's thoroughly depressing.
  13. This team could play all day and not score, but we knew that from kick off.
  14. Broughton has a lot to answer for but has the manager taking the flak. A fucking imposter.
  15. Yep, let's disregard the top scorer being out. Who'd miss that? We have a shit squad and we're lucky to be where we are. It won't change till Venkys put their hands in their pockets and Gregg Broughton stops the talk and delivers.
  16. It also helps that they've scored a couple of lucky goals. They've had two shots and scored. And let's not forget where Rotherham are. I wouldn't be praising their model much.
  17. We need a striker! Replace that over expensive but loveable lump with someone who can actually score goals. We have a couple of decent strikers today and we win. Same as Boro. It doesn't really get as simple as that. I agree about buying a couple of midfielders but you'll still get the same result as there aren't enough goals in the team and it's been the same for 18 months so it's not as if we didn't know.
  18. Some embarassing comments on here today. Rotherham have scored two goals the like of which they'll probably never score this season, the second was questionable. Our top scorer is out along with three other players. Our only striker is Gallagher, a player that's often overrated by fans but in reality has never been any good. We're that threadbare we're playing youth players. If this team runs out every week we're down the bottom. Gallagher misses, Hedges misses, Dack misses. Managers fault.
  19. Shocking but Rathbone has played well and deserved that. He's got everything Rovers need, a bit of passion and fight.
  20. Can we sign Rathbone? He's only doing a job but he's done more than any of ours.
  21. We have zero height up front with him.
  22. I imagine you aren't watching the game. Gallagher has been by far the worst player on the pitch, he's clearly not up for it and struggling with his lack of ability.
