Hard to expect players who won’t be here next year to give a shite about relegation. -

Add Travis who was loaned out and I’d take that 10 over any 11 still at the club. -

Moran should never put the shirt on again. -

All year we’ve been so inept with the opportunities we create. -

What happened to Harry Leonard? -

He’s been ok, but squandered our best opportunity -

I’d like to see Gilsenan on for Dolan, or maybe for Moran and have Buckley play deeper. -

Gifting goals continue to be out season theme. Since JDT left (with the noted exception of Newcastle) we’ve been sloppy in possession and unable to put together 3 passes. -

Has to score there. The fact the keeper caught it from 6 yards out shows how week of an attempt it was. -

Moran can fuck off. Why he gets minutes is beyond me -
In case you missed it. Blue and White through and through. Two Dingles in one tackle! https://x.com/LatestRovers/status/1761474054425395342?s=20

I thought Buckley was an improvement from Garrett and Moran in the middle. Not Wharton but much better. SG work rate is undeniable, but his touch and lack of anticipation limits his chances to score. Szmodics, Dolan, Siggy are struggling to find a way to play off SG and are much less effective they’re asked to win possession from 50:50s which isn’t their strong suit. The biggest change I see is the keeper has been instructed not to fook around with all the passing in our box. Being just a bit less suicidal in December and January and we’d be well clear from relegation. I recall at the beginning of the season when there was speculation JDT could leave GB mentioning the style we would like to play being the same under a different manager. Didn’t he say we had a list of managers who would continue the “new project”? Seems like either by design, lack of transfer funds, change in manager or necessity to stay up we’ve certainly changed the style when JDT was shown the door. -

We weren’t scoring but we’re creating and yielding many more chances. One thing for sure, for a neutral, the matches were more entertaining under JDT. -

Moran does himself no favors. Thought Buckley was better than him and that includes the foul for their goal. Moran wouldn’t have fouled him only because he wouldn’t have attempted to get in a tackle -

Can’t help but feel the pendulum has swung too far in the conservative direction since JDT left. Lots of balls hoofed forward in the direction of the front three. Midfield playing negative. if this is our style for next year we should sell Sammy in the summer. The style doesn’t suit him and his value will drop the longer he plays in it. -

I don’t know why we bother pressing if the times we knick it off them in the final 3rd we play it back to pears to lump it forward. -

Wonder what it would take to sign him? 😥. -

He’s a free transfer in 14 months. Why sign an extension now, when he can get more next summer. Another player waking for free -

Take the point I guess as they will be hard to come by if we continue to play like we have for the past fortnight -

Would be here in either system as he could fetch a fee to cover operating costs. -

Szmodics works harder than the other 10 combined
