Is Whiteman doing well at Preston @Sparks Rover? Haven't seen much of him at all.

He was anonymous against West Brom too. Let's not rewrite history. He isn't a right back so he can have a pass there but did nothing in midfield. Working hard isn't good enough.

Well it's about time he got called out on it by more than myself and a handful of others. Alwsys stress it's not personal and it isn't, not sure Morton is the answer either, need a man in there.

I think alot feel like you, it's more of a belief. I wouldn't have him starting at all. I bang the drum because I think we would be alot better off with someone else in there. Sick of being told how much potential he has, I want success for rovers and can't help but feel. Imagine a Alex Mowatt, Lewis O Brien, John Swift, Josh Cullen or Harrison Reed in there. It's a vital area of the pitch and can't afford to have someone not up for the battle or graft.

Again, lots to address after tonight. Left back is a must end of story. 2 centre backs but minimum one. Central midfielder. If we keep BBD I'm not as concerned with our attacking options as I am midfield and defence. You can get overrun like that in the middle of the park and expect to win many games and starting with Pickering is handing the opposition a massive advantage.

Bit extreme.

Honest I imagine, seems an up front guy, collective responsibility. Won't slaughter the players but will say it wasn't good enough etc.

They did tbf to them but my god we contributed. Wasn't getting carried away with our great start to the season but actually fancied a win tonight and a draw at worst. How wrong I was.

Buckley says hi

When we're good, we're good but when we're off it....wow. Game over.

That Reading right back looks very useful. Had a very good game tonight.

It's the hope that kills you 🙄

Should have done alot better with that effort. Go across goal or slide Dack in.

He's been dreadful. And that's saying alot given the teams performance tonight.

What's Buckley done so far this season? It's a myth, he doesn't contribute anything close to what BBD does. BBD is a match winner.

Oh I'm very aware. I suggested replacing him pre season and it didn't go down well, now the penny seems to have dropped.

That left back area again...every team has targetted now this season. Useless!

Dacky looking up for it. Few tidy touches.

I agree

They don't like when you are right Sparksy boy 🤣🤣🤣

Has to be an age thing. Underage to advertise vapes or e cigarettes.

It's an admission for a manager when you make 3 changes at HT that you got the starting like up very wrong.

Have to agree with all this, I thought Dolan wouod be very useful but he's at nothing the last while. Shame as again seems a good lad and is going but he's rapidly declining. The rest is accurate too.

Crappy is very generous. I'm always optimistic and reckon there is a result here for us but it's not dramatic in saying that was diabolical. Absolutely mauled for 45 mins and nothing encouraging.

We had 60% possession???? 🧐😳
