Lancaster Rover

I’m also an analyst at heart, one of the major flaws I see in xG is that it doesn’t take in to account situational context of the shooting opportunity i.e. who is the forward, who is the keeper, etc

I thought TGH was excellent and probably the only player to come off at half time who played to par or above

I think if we’re playing 3 at the back you can’t have TGH and Tronstad together otherwise we end up too deep. Tronstad going off changed the dynamic in the middle of the park where you had Montgomery and TGH on different lines for the first time which I felt gave us more balance and allowed us to use the space created much better

Shortly after the subs. Right on the aisle between 04 and 05. Around row 23 ish. Not good to see to be honest, when you’ve got rovers fans clouting each other shows the split in the fanbase

Appalling first half and started the second with a whimper. Started to pick up after 10 mins or so in the second half but when Moroshita missed that chance I thought we were done for. Lot of credit has to got to a few of the players individually grabbing the game by the neck and making something happen. Most notably McLoughlin, TGH, De Neve and Montgomery. Great to see the BBE turn on Ismael and ramp up pressure on the Venky’s/Pasha. The win after subs does more harm than good though in removing the dud, Ismael

There was a full scrap in N04, seemed to be a Venky’s out/get behind the lads based disagreement . Fella who came of worse will have a banging head tomorrow

southampton are have surpassed us in underperforming their xG, can’t wait for them to catch it up today!

He’s always been a regular going back pre Venky’s.

One is Gordon Taylor formerly of this parish and more widely known as longstanding CEO of the PFA

This is my biggest problem with them, he's managed roughly 30 games and I couldn't tell you what sort of team we are? What's the identity, what are we known for, how would you describe our style of play. It's not like we're tactically flexible or fluid, we have a plan of sorts to start off with (albeit a not very dynamic one) but as soon as the opposition change shape or we lose momentum we fold like a deck chair. As mentioned above, last night we're pinging crosses and direct passes on to Morishita and Kargbo rather than playing over them and trying to turn their back line, which would suit the personnel.

I'd personally prefer fan action in the form of protest in our around the ground. Sadly we are at the point crowd wise where people staying away wouldn't make that much of a dent

Hopefully the majority of members push for protest and fan action

At least baradji had another good game, signing of the season

The random signings all stink of Kean era agent buys

Woeful defending again. Miller watching the ball as his man runs off him and their striker easily gets between two of ours

So predictable

Because we’re unlucky…….. in a false position…….. playing well, etc, etc. got teams don’t lose 7 out of 10 games

Kargbo and offside. Shock

Unlucky? We’re not unlucky, we’re crap. we’ve not scored goals due to poor final ball and ineptitude in front of goal. Defensively we’re awful for both goals. Nowt to do with luck, luck doesn’t have Alebiousu 1 yard from miller when he should slide across to close the space

Wow, that’s as bad as you’ll see. Christ that would be bad in North West Counties, never mind the Championship

Who cares, further away from the squad he is the better.

As a Celtic fan, the club needs a complete overhaul. Rodgers is done, needs gone and has done for 12 months. There needs to be a clear transfer plan and injection of cash. The current squad is a great example of buy cheap buy twice!

McInnes is also a decent manager

The Owen Coyle team would beat this mob. Christ, Tavares makes hope Akpan look like Viera

I said it after a couple of games that this season stinks of Owen Coyle season and I think I was wrong, this will get worse. Lots of positives, played well, etc. bollocks. Good teams win more matches than they lose, we lose considerably more than we win so draw your own conclusions
