Will be interesting to see if we get any premier league kids on loan. When was the last season we weren’t starting and relying on them in the first XI

Football is so often win and lost by the slimmest of margins. We’ve had two questionable pk calls not go our way and one terrible corner. Those 3 plays are the difference between 7 points and sitting in 3rd and 3 points and in 16th.

Fixed that for you

Scores in a World Cup final

So that’s that then. We sell our captain, don’t get our asking price (again) and will replace him with a player who is already injured. Still no striker or winger and surely Hyam is shipped out in the next week.

According to some he hasn’t been seen for 7 days. Can’t pick someone who’s not there

While baffling seems about right.

Hard to believe we’re in need of a “transition” to a new “project” when we were 1 point off the play offs and returned everyone sans Dolan, Batth and Weiman. All of whom could have been retained or replaced given we offered fair contracts. All that was required to push on was a Striker and a winger to compete. We’ve now taken a giant step back for what? It’s fucking madness.

I’d argue they’ve abandoned it, just not sold it off.

It is a difficult market when 1) you’re offering sub par wages, 2) you won’t pay fair value for transfer fees, 3) you run out of cheap spots to pay low wages and fees using foreign exemptions. couple that with key player in the final year of their contract who know they’ll earn more elsewhere, and other clubs keenly aware that Rovers will be forced to sell at cut rate prices. I’d say under those circumstances it’s a nearly impossible market to do business in. I still can’t believe Wharton was sold for £21 million. Hutchinson going for £37 million highlights just how bad of a transfer that was for us…but desperate times cause desperate measures, and we’ve been forced into selling assets for nothing for years now.

He did but it was on De Neve to put him in that position. Still think the player was looking for it.

Yes but he’s under contract and didn’t refuse to play, so back in the XI he’ll go

Miles off it. Worse yet he came on and should have been fresh compared to others. Did nothing going forward and squarely responsible for their first goal.

Why is the guy who’s not fit to play 60 min still on the pitch AND then tasked with the corner?

That was possibly the worst corner I’ve see at any level.

I disagree we “created” enough. First half we didn’t have a sniff of their goal. Got a great hit from Todd, but wouldn’t say we were creating lots of chances. Maybe 4 chances in 90 min. That’s not enough most days

He was decent for the first 60 min, but after that you could see he had nothing left. Should have been subbed off but we literally don’t have on the bench to come in for him.

What’s most concerning is that’s our best performance yet. Might be the best this side can muster

He’s only fit to play 60 min but we’ve got no one else to bring on. He’s shit, but he’s also been gassed for 20 min.

FFS! We play our corner into a break the other way. Disgraceful.

Good save that. Millers throw a real weapon.

Just seen the replay. No contact. Ref been fooled there

It’s a poor decision by miller but he’s only put in that position because De Neve is absolutely cooked by their winger.

De Neve comes on and gets skinned within 30 seconds…miller than trips for the pk
