It is but I can't see us doing it regularly with that defence. Is our attacking line up strong enough to make up for our defensive frailties? We've just taken an expensive gamble on a young lad who has never been prolific, perhaps if we had picked up someone with more of a track record I'd be more confident. When I say score more than concede, by that I mean he's expecting to concede one or two on average per game. Either that or he believes a league 1 defence can cut it over a season in a superior league.

This is the main worry. It does look as if Mowbray wants to score more than we concede for this season. The other worry is putting all our eggs in one basket with Brereton when we could have spent that on a couple of solid championship players. I really hope that Brereton turns out to be worth it. Hard to judge him from yesterdays performance.

I think some people would enjoy this site more if it consisted of a single button with a love heart emoji on it. You know we haven't played well when Chaddy is critical. That worries me more than Dacks injury or our defensive prowess, it must have been bloody bad.

It was a reaction to the resident point-scoring superfans on here who complain that you can't pick apart a managers decisions or a performance, no matter what. Some of the same people who were quick to jump on people's backs when Kean was taking the club apart, the same people who did sweet fa to try and quell it and in some cases blamed the fans. Fancy people feeling down that we lost 4-1 within a couple of hours of the match ending. I would never have expected it.

Raya was the one who pulled off the two fantastic saves. We were just as inept at defending during those first half moments as the second half, which was the point I was making. I just don't agree that we played particularly well in the first half. We scored against the run of play and Bristols heads dropped. Their manager knew our players weren't up to much so told his at half time to go for us, and that was that. I don't think bringing Graham off helped matters as after that we had no one to hold the ball up.

I think you watched a different game to me Philip. Before Mulgrew scored we could have been 2-0 down only for reflex saves by Raya. He was keeping us in the game till someone drugged his half time oranges.

If it wasn't for people being objective and critical, Kean and co would be taking us into none-league about now. Parson obviously loves the club to a fault, but it's unrealistic to think people aren't going to criticize the team after a 4-1 loss, especially when we've been crying out for the defense to be strengthened and many have said it over the Summer. "The poor guy" has won quite a lot I'd say but yesterday was a shambles.

Have we signed a proven goalscorer?

Should have built from the back. Spending £6m on Brereton was a luxury buy, the type of which should be reserved for promotion pushes. When January comes that's probably our budget blown.

^^^^ Exactly what I was thinking when we were bringing in about 20 midfielders ^^^^

The defending is embarassingly bad. It'd be bad in a Sunday league.

Nearly 5, Raya's woken up at last.

F*** off Rovers. Absolute shambles. Spend £6m on a striker when we needed a new defence.

We've been awful, absolutely awful. Poor keeping.

Found it now, you can tell it's new on some pages it's not even listed, on some pages the information is wrong, and if you just get the right page it's just an easy button to click and pay. The QnA on the iFollow website needs updating, or maybe I found an old page on Google which hasn't been removed yet. I didn't click on Choose Your Package because I didn't want a package I just wanted the game... Here it is for those who think like me. https://www.rovers.co.uk/ifollow/subscribe#chooseYourPackage

I'm on iFollow now and it just says "live commentary" and "Watch on Sky Sports". I also only have options for monthly subscription and yearly, no match only or day pass that I can find.

Is this the full live match or just commentary?

Sky cheaping out.

If you're using NowTV to watch Sky, note that it doesn't have a red button and you won't be able to watch the match.

Perhaps you should heed your own advice.

When he gets angry at anything Rovers he can't express it so he has to bash the fans. He'll never change so wahay 1-0 down, up the Rovers!!!

It may be the first ten mins of the season, we may have put out exactly the same side as we ended with in a lower division, and we may be getting beat. I just can't understand it can you Chads?

Is it wrong that I prefer the lad from Peterborough to both of them? Sadly it doesn't matter as out of the three of them we'll get none.

His reaction will be that of someone who really wanted an older player. I think those who believe the squad to be good enough are in for a shock if we don't suitably strengthen. Big difference between League 1 and the Championship.
