This lot are absolutely awful. Have to win this

Arma misses a sitter!

Yes, I’m sure he sits at home rubbing his hands with glee 3 of his best players are out for the season. Probably at the same time he draws up his plans to prevent us going up.

Absolutely woeful.

No surprises really. Need to adjust expectations based on the injury list, top 6 is a pipe dream. You can’t blame TM for injuries and as he’s said, what is the point spending our very limited budget on someone who won’t start in future?

How far is BB down the pecking order now...? 7m extremely well spent. Staggering.

Stick Brererton on. Nothing to lose.

Exactly what you would expect with arguably our 3 best technical players missing. Solid enough. Gallagher really is poor though. Dear oh dear. Johnson also 3 Miles off the pace.

Good post. Look at WBA and Leeds for recent form and we’re doing just fine.

Murdering them. Should be 2-0 up

We won't be spending anything in the summer either - that was going to be funded by Dack's sale.

K**n used this as an excuse for our league form. "Damaging wurselves before we've kicked a ball"

coming BACK

There is no doubt Dack's injury has buggered up the financial planning. The objective was to flog him this summer if we didn't get promoted and now that isn't going to happen. Naturally at Rovers there is no Plan B. It is laughable a team in the top half of the championship with aspirations of promotion don't have a structure in place to deal with transfers. Instead we have Tony who doesn't like negotiating. The mind boggles.

they bought a CPL side - the Trinbago Knight Riders. I met Mr Venky at one of the games.

Absolutely - much better footballer in my opinion.

Outstanding performance - best we’ve played in a long long time. Well done to all! holtby and downing were class. Interesting Gallagher’s goal came as he was playing through the middle..........!!!!!

Holtby has so much class. Bell just isn’t up to this standard. Gallagher looks completely lost out wide. Baffling.

As it stands we could go 6th on Monday. Our goal difference is horrendous compared to the other teams in playoff positions. Hope that doesn’t come back to bite us in the backside later in the season.

It will be interesting to see how the players react in this game - are they also feeling sorry for themselves after the nasty fans grumbled on Saturday or are they also sick of TM? If they down tools TM is a gonner

It’s the hope that kills you

Surely this needs to be addressed in January. Extremely poor keeper.

This weeks excuse will be the referee. the officials were absolutely shocking but that defeat is a culmination of all of the errors TM has made in 3 transfer windows. The GK is utterly awful and the defense is the worst I’ve ever seen at rovers. The bigger issue in all of this is the boys club atmosphere that is manifest in the club. Quite simply, they do not care. You can almost excuse getting beaten if there is a genuine effort or more quality in the other team. This lot believe their own hype. Off chavving it up in Dubai during the breaks, talking about top 6.... This is also the most unfit rovers side I’ve ever seen. They cannot play longer than 45 minutes. The buck for all of that lies firmly at the feet of TM and his coaching staff. It is scary to see how far behind this club is set up compared to others in this league and above. Im past anger and into apathy. 4000 today and the rest of the fan base deserve better.

Total apathy. sad sad state of affairs.

Walton is absolutely shocking.
