But like I said earlier, the manager throwing him on as part of a shockingly poor team with even worse tactics is never going to do him good, especially after ignoring him for most of the season so far.

Tombola Tony strikes again. Looks like a massively negative side that is only going to invite pressure and we don't have the stones to contain it. Glad to see Butterworth starting , but if this team struggles going forward as I expect it will then you just know Tony is going to use that as an excuse to never play him again.

Tony being outclassed by another manager after half time? I'm shocked!

His inclusion also screams to me "Buckley at right back with a back three" which to my knowledge is a formation that Tony has tried time and again and it literally never works.

If only he had had 4 years of transfer windows to sign some "men"

Glad to see Mowbray padded the squad out with loans who are either too unfit to play or belong 2 divisions below... yet again wasting limited resources so that his pals at the big clubs can big him up as some kind of football guru whilst it stops us from ever progressing.

Biggest thing to note - we've (yet again) only taken points from teams in the bottom half and our fixture list has helped immensely. This is why we will never contest because Tony is a massive limiting factor on this team. Top half Championship teams just have a tactical advantage.

That is diabolical defending

Poveda seems to have a worse touch than Gallagher and that's saying a lot.

We are getting absolutely battered. If we didn't have Ayala we'd easily have conceded 5 tonight.

It was a concussion injury so we get an extra one

If Diaz scores a winner I'm going to buy a Diaz Rovers shirt

penalty - let's not blow this

Magloire is awful

The added problem to the back 3 is he keeps going with only two in midfield, so inevitably Rothwell and Travis get overrun, because obviously they do.

We didn't have a wing back when Nyambe was on, so why do we need to have one now he's off? Tinkering for the sake of tinkering.

This is why I can never get excited when we smash someone, because it's inevitable that we will revert to type.

Kaminski should be saving that

What happened to that defender we got from Brighton? Still not remotely fit?

I mean, it's his head... but do go on

This is absolutely horrendous so far

Presumably because Cardiff are starting to pepper high balls into us again and Dolan is about 2 feet tall whereas Sam offers us some height defensively if I were to guess.

Says everything about the state of Rovers that even at 4-0 you worry we could bottle it.

DIAZ! We are smashing this - come on!

Who was the last CB we had who was as big a threat from set pieces as Ayala? Duffy maybe?
