  1. 3-1 Needed a right back on the pitch at the start of that move there Tony.
  2. So close. That would have been like solving world peace had you two agreed. ?
  3. Reminder that we are on Sky Sports behind the red button tonight. ?
  4. Dire tactics? They had 15 shots to our 6 !!!! Theres nothing wrong with siting back and letting a sterile attacking team have the ball in non-dangerous areas to nullify our main attacking threat, whilst getting forward in numbers when you do get the ball.
  5. If anybody gives the players marks and gives Gallagher more than 2 I would love to know why. Woeful, woeful performance which should have ended with him walking for a second yellow card. Abysmal.
  6. I said parity was goalkeeper, left back and striker back in August. Thats why. Doesn't matter how much quality is brought in elsewhere, if we are relying on either one of them two expensive puddings playing up front then we aren't going anywhere.
  7. He's one of those players over the last 10 years that I have no real recollection of. I remember him being here but he was just a nothing player. If you asked me who scored that winner at the Emirates I could have told you it was Olsson whose run set it up but probably wouldn't have recalled who scored it - which considering that on paper it is one of out best results over the last 10 years is a bit alarming.
  8. The fact they seem to over-value what they own, and a few years ago were rumoured to be wanting most of the money they have lost on Rovers back if they were to sell, have always made finding new owners for the club very hard.
  9. I think I saw J-Lowe making a hash of clearing it leading to Tranmeres last minute equaliser at Salford. When we were all crying that he wasn't good enough but he was being picked religiously week after week, who were those posters who kept saying numerous managers couldn't be wrong? I'm sure a few said he would definitely end up in the Premier League.
  10. Hmm. Not sure. Scored well over 100 goals in a season but still can only finish 6th. Defence typically awful as usual.
  11. I'd say we have been active in the European Transfer market. Whether the system works in identifying affordable talent, and as such has been a success, remains to be seen.
  12. I'm not going to be down about a draw on the back of two great wins. I thought we played ok. I will just give 1 positive and 1 negative. On the positive side, I've thought clean sheets against Derby and Wycombe were due to their ineptitude going forward. However another clean sheet today against a side who are always going to be decent in this league gives hope we may have improved defensively somehow. Worryingly, Gallagher was only noticeable for missing a decent chance when he came on, and then two silly, petulant challenges which led to him getting booked. Our striking options after Arma are limited.
  13. Completely agree regarding last night. Merson was awful as a pundit. Normally I just switch off regardless who is in the studio, but I actually stopped to take note last night as he was making very little sense. There's a big difference between what Merson is asked to do on Soccer Saturday (which I admit I don't mind him on), and being sat in a studio giving serious, professional punditry on games.
  14. I'm not sure there are several thousand rovers fans out there who would have purchased a season ticket had the price remained unchanged at £350 and tickets been on sale since early August. Maybe a few hundred have been put off by being able to see the direction the situation with the virus is going and realised that most of the season would be behind closed doors and not bothered. But its wouldn't have been thousands. Therefore, is there anything Waggot could have done to persuade longstanding season ticket holders like myself to renew? I'm not sure there is to be honest and there must be many, many people like me who feel similar and haven't renewed. Admittedly there could have been some clever proposal put together than might have given me second thoughts, and certainly the guilt trip wasn't the right move. Ultimately, I can go around to my mates and three of us can pay £3.33 each to watch the ifollow coverage. That equates to £76 a year to watch all home games streamed. Then I just renew next season at £399. Ultimately I take the view that if you don't get into the ground this season then you are not actually getting £141 off your season ticket next season. You have still paid that £141, but have just paid it upfront. That said, fair play to those who have renewed and I hope you all get in the ground sooner than looks likely at the moment. The situation just wasn't for me, that's all. Of course, they could put the price up next season for those that didn't renew this season but that would be commercial suicide.
  15. If anybody wants grounding, just remember the two sides we destroyed haven't got a point yet, and have lost to the championship titans of Luton, Reading, Swansea and Rotherham in their other games. But we didn't half destroy them ?
  16. This. After a shaky first few minutes we suddenly closed everything down like madmen. Excellent from front to back.
  17. Excellent today and heavily involved in the game having been pretty average so far this season. Not a goalscorer.
  18. I take it they are not consoling themselves that he gave the ball,away against Bournemouth anymore?
  19. Agree, but they ain't giving free gifts to the club either.
