Just think back to Szmodics disallowed goal when he was not in line of sight. VAR is becoming nothing more than a tool to favour the media darlings even more. Seen so many VAR rulings that are flat wrong, ALWAYS helping the top 6 lot.

He WAS thrown to the ground after being fouled more than once and ref.did not give anything. However Big Mac touches one of theirs it is a foul. I can understand his frustration.

I think young Dolan or his agent has his head in the clouds. Clearly thinks he is better than he is. I say sell him before he walks like the rest of em. Maybe as he is walking iut the door point out the number of players like him that just disappeared after they left us. Grass not always greener nor is the money.

They are gonna score it is inevitable.

That Swansea winger would be having Picks for breakfast, good player Beck is wish we could sign him permanent and another like him on the other side

Can we please play in the 2nd half. God this is a tough watch. We are winning but can we please get involved as an attacking unit, tame tonsay the least

Anither awful performance...Very worriesome, the goal at the death was comical but I almost saw it coming, told the wife they'll score here. That aside we should be concerned. That is 3.out of 4 very flat, lethergic almost lazy performances. Travis couldn't pass gas today. It was bad to me nothing much to be positive about, JRC scoring? I thought we.might go on and steal it but it took just a few.more.minutes.to see it was.not in the cards. Really hope this is not the start of something bad.

I have liked what little I have seen of him.

I was glad cos half the Sunderland fans had left already.

WHY is he even playing?

Pears will play, he was not horrible but could have done better for the 3rd, oossibly the 1st he was out of position. Not enough to get him dropped yet. I think Eustace is trying to make it wasy on himself by waiting till Pears drops another clanger. How about the Leeds keeper today? Who ever the keeper Big Mac has to start.

Watched the day after, did not know the result. Was surprised Cantwell started and Inthiught it might be a mistake. He looks like a softy to me backs out of anything looking physical. We were horrible, could not string passes together, gave Coventry ACRES of space all over the park. Weiman, well he had a stinker for me as did most of the others. Carter did well for the most. Powder puff defending for the 2nd. I hope we are not just now finding our true level, Infancy us to lose again at Plymouth too, by a similar score. Then a break for Eustace to turn it around. We did what we do, cure what ever us ailing our opponent.

A very good living at that. I thought Big Mac was fantastic in his first few games and our game noticably dipped once he was taken off. Now? He looks a little lost out there hopefully it is just because he has lost his place. I liked the look of him and fingers crossed him improves on those early performances, he could be key for us with some more polish. Almost looked like he was trying too hard. He's a beast play him from the start.

My big worry tomorrow is whether I can watch on Rovers TV or not. Hoping for a correction from the Preston game and an emphatic victory. Feeling in me water says slim defeat late on, Pears to blame.

I've seen it and the replay once, I thought he never even made contact. Same with their keepers head at the end there was no contact I saw as he tried to clear him. Did not even ruffle his hair. It is all going tits up for me is football. You can't play kike we used to what ince were great tackles are now yellows, sometines more, What galls me just as much is all this fuckin cheatin, sick of it. Playacting, faking injury, trying to get opponents sent off. It makes the soort we kove just look bad and WTF is all this god-damned rolling around on the ground. Pitiful

I saw that he pulled the yellow then the red. I thought he was messin with Beck's head. Was that sort of idiot. Another poor poor reffin display. Carters Yellow was shameful I thought. He barely touched the lad on the arm as he ran past. Preston were guilty of much more all game long and got away with it.

WE are going to lose this. Need to upnthe tempo work the 10 men. Not creating anything.

Difficult game to call. Game on Paramount plus over here. It is streaming now

Fair enough, well done to stick with last teams line up. To me this is a pivotal game

Litmus test for Eustace today. For those of us who have toiled with following Rovers for many year, we know that this is a big game. Typically, with interest on the rise, sell out following, game on TV and results going well, this means an abject performance is coming. Hopefully Eustace and his players can buck the trend. Hiw dirty will knob end be today. I still maintain that the shithouse who gave Dacky that extra nudge as he went out of touch is what contributed to his injury and the begining of the end for Bradley Let's smash em.

WORK? I would trade them for my 50 years of working.

Learning some restraint in your old age Abs, I am proud if you. Surprised but proud.

We are always oroud to support our team, it's those at the top we do not care for.

ROI absolutely dire 1st have. England looked to be in low gear and still miles ahead of the Irish. One could have been forgiven for thinking that Southgate was still in charge. FFS ket's get a manager who can get this young attacking talent playing forwards.

Looks like I will have to watch this the next day. Almost 14.months ago my house burned down, the.Bristol.match we will finally be moving home, it has been a bonafide nightmare. Be good to be home, hope I can afford it. I just have to stay away from the score and log on very carefully for it to seem like live. Tricky game this always feel we play poorly 1st game after a break. Hoping for a strong win but gut tells me 1-1 or 2-1 to Bristol.
