Piss poor. Id hate to pick a MOTM for rovers here. Markanday maybe?

Credit to their manager. Most of the first half was played in their half. He’s pushed us right back into our half here.

He’s owned our two in midfield.

Why not? What good has it done us so far?

Dolan for Gallagher and I don’t think we will lose this strangely.

Where is Grant Hanley when you need him?

Don’t forget we’ve never even equalised when we have gone behind, let alone got anything.

What Gally wouldn’t have missed? You sure? Did you not see that header against Cardiff. Regardless it’s unlikely Gally would have the movement to get there. Shit miss from Dack, but as he’s actually done something decent in the last few games he’s got a bit of credit in the bank.

I can. Quite easily.

The pass selection going forward is shocking at times.

Got to hang on in this game until we realise we should have Dolan or Markanday wide instead of Gallagher.

And Rovers play Burnley on the weekend of the Quarter Finals. As that requires only two more wins from either of us to get there, and we both have favourable draws in the next round, it looks like that could end up being a midweek game.

Elliot came to Rovers with rumours of an attitude problem but there was no sign of it at all when he was here.

I may be wrong but the number of of outlets open doesn’t appear to be a staffing issue. 3pm kick offs and bigger midweek games like Boro at home and they are all open. I think they are sometimes deliberately closed as for some games they think the demand isn’t there so they aren’t all required. Agree on the food choices. The current pies are awful.

If it’s been raised several times already, and yet it’s still poor, that tells its own story. The problem in the JW upper isn’t generally for the bigger games when they have all the bars and food outlets open. It’s the ‘average’ games when they decide they’ll only open 2 of the outlets.

Apparantly Waggot said we were bringing in ex-Fenerbache Commercial Director Don Alweçan .

The best thing about that cup draw is there is a glimmer of a chance we could play 3pm Saturday. Even Malaysia won’t want to watch Rovers V Brum.

.

As they haven’t played the original tie due to a waterlogged pitch, I presume that will be played when the replays are played w/c16th. Therefore if they draw then their replay could possibly be 27th.

So they are bound to draw when they meet and mean we end up not playing at all that weekend.

I’ve seen them twice now against Rovers and they are thalli aren’t very good. They need to spend to go up.

If you get Man United or any other big club away in the FA Cup, the away side can potentially earn up to and over £1,000,000. I'm never sure why, for a club that pleads poverty under FFP, the financial carrot of progressing in cup competitions is ignored.

Rothwell makes his first competitive start for Bournemouth this afternoon. Didn't know what thread to put it in so hoping this one is appropriate.
