So he didn't say we battered them. He said we would have. I don't know if you watched it, but if we'd taken our early chances we would have. The finishing was worse than Pears performance. Hedges miss was infuriatingly bad. Easy to forget that we were by far the better team till their goal.

For the second goal the defending was poor, and for the third it was amateur hour. Pears may be public enemy number 1 but our centre backs didn't help matters. What was S Wharton doing with that header?

Two proven goalscorers going out is enough for me to work it out.

Pointless being the best team who can't score and defend.

He leaves, we'll get a right yes man dolloper and back to L1 we go.

He was poor today and looked disinterested. For a guy apparently disgruntled at not playing last season, he didn't take his chance. But let's be fair, Travis was worse in the first half and Hedges was absolutely abysmal and missed a sitter. Perhaps a different game if Hedges is switched on.

He didn't say we battered them, he said we had enough chances which we did. Good chances too, before Plymouth started playing.

Of course it is.

Not the worst but certainly top 3 material.

Exactly. So many people kidding themselves.

It's not even been that tough. Plymouth haven't been very good, we just can't score and we just saw the goalie throw his Rovers career away. We've missed sitter after sitter.

This has got to be Pears last match after that. Wtf was he doing?

Sadly, our forwards are L1 standard.

First priority this Summer was a goalscorer, and thanks to the owners and Waggott's completely lack of ambition, we brought in an unknown on the final day of the transfer window. And this is the result.

How many sitters so far. 5?

And Dolan over Gilsenan rankles.

There's no way we're scoring today, unless there's a bit of individual brilliance, and individually we've looked less than brilliant.

Their number 9 should have scored another.

They all look like they'd rather be elsewhere.

Everyone is so fecking slow to pass, move or react. Hedges and Szmodics both missed sitters.

He's been especially poor today. Needs dropping off this performance, as does Travis and Wharton to be fair.

Travis having an absolutely travesty.

Good job we brought in that experienced cover...

Summer 2021 Adam Armstrong left 🤯

Would have been better playing that team, this team is shit. I'll be fair and say that until their goal, which was against run of play, it was all Rovers and we could have been 3-0 up.
