Brittain would burst into tears.

He's an attacking mid isn't he?

Only because the bar has been lowered so severely.

Some of those players will rarely be ready or prepared, some never. We're asking what is pretty much a rookie manager to organise and get results from possibly the worst Rovers squad I've seen in my lifetime, with no support from above.

Venkys are walking us into relegation.

Can we start blaming the players for unnecessarily and unsuccessfully dicking around with it at the back yet?

Nothing can save us, I'm just fed up with seeing the same faces making the same mistakes.

What does Gilsenan have to do to get some game time? This is utter dross.

Brittain should be ashamed of his performances this season. Can't hide behind the excuse that it's the manager now. Just a very limited player, a poor defender and the decision making of a lobotomised chimp.

Not signing a striker since Summer 2019 has something to do with it.

If only he'd have struck it first time intead of waiting for the goalie to prep himself for it. He could have eaten his lunch and still saved that.

League's top scorer standing there on his own, it's an easy pass to him but Brittain strikes himself... Straight at the keeper.

More poor decision making from Brittain in the final third.

Another disgusting performance by players we've now seen can do better.

Wtf was that shot from Brittain? And why didn't Gallagher pass it earlier to make it easier?

He deserved his first win tonight.

Rovers looked the better team for most of the game and I didn’t think Newcastle deserved that. When will we get a bit of luck?

Don't look at the Telegraph comments. Some absolute class acts on there singing Venkys/Waggotts praises whilst laying the blame completely with JDT.

He signed a lucrative 5 year contract so they may stick with him. How are their finances after spending all that cash?

Give it to Damien Johnson.

You can’t give him Stoke, that was one for the coaches. He’d been here for a day.

Some unfair comments on Eustace, he's working with some very limited players and with a couple of better forwards and a decent midfielder we'd have won today.

We need to beat Swansea, Millwall and Plymouth to give ourselves a buffer. Beyond that I think we've only got Sheffield Wednesday from the bunch at the bottom.

There was some battling in that second half but as someone else said, a good result in isolation but we needed all 3 points to stay out of the relegation scrap. Every match we get a point closer to the relegation zone. Thanks Venkys and Waggott.

This hoofing it to no one shit just isn’t working.
