Are people's post being policed again?

It's just the manner that grates on people. Players look like they never played together before and the managers inability to get a tune out of a team that goes behind is very frustrating

Can't defend that ..where is the burst away. He was yards ahead.

Buckley seems to be moving alot better which is good news for the lad. Hopefully just an impact injury.

Combination of both

Good effort. Thought it was in.

Ssssssh your not allowed highlight that. He's been superb for 1.5 games don't you know.

That left back area yet again

Should bring Buckley on

Keep the faith...have been bad but we can get back into it.

Pickering back to his worst

Stoke look very open at the back and we look lively and energetic.

Nervy start all round. Back looks shaky and Pears has butterfingers 😬

Chance

Hope you are right, was a big critic of his at times but I have to admit he has done a good job overall regardless of how the season pans out.

In that way...

Snowed here in Ireland, woke at 5.30 with it on the ground and covering houses and cars. Sun is out now and it's blasted it away...fear not, sun is on the way lads!

I dunno Bournemouth have form..massive club and a dream for any footballer eh Joe.

Said it few weeks back when I brought a mate who had no prior knowledge to most of our squad "I imagine that Dolan lad will get snapped up by a bigger club at some stage"..has taken a keen interest in him ever since.

Very reasonable post and I agree. We are conditioned as rovers fans that even on a hot streak it feels like a crushing loss or complete no show is just around the corner. It's not that I fear stoke but it's just a case of we have been hurt so many times before syndrome. I wouldn't be surprised if we went there and won 3-0, equally wouldn't surprise me to go there a lose 2-0. I don't think a draw is the worst result but obviously hoping for 3.

Dolan has been brilliant too. Clever play and drawn countless fouls on top of a brilliant assist. Well done young man

You can hear the commentators now "lucky to be on the pitch and finds the back of the net"

That's a second yellow for Basham. Bulshit.

Was very good first half too. Works his bollox off and has ability too.

Let's put the Sammie debate to bed...he's a breathe of fresh air and a tidy baller, a solid addition and happy to have him on board.
