So, we are now half way through what can only be described as a curates egg of a season so far. Perceived improvement in on field performances have not yielded the points the team have probably deserved for various reasons, mainly due to a lack of strength in depth, coupled with a crippling injury list. To date, only the top 4 have won more games than Rovers, whilst only the bottom 3 have lost more, a statistic that perfectly sums up where we are as a team. Of the 7 summer signings , only Sondre Tronstad of the permanent signings has really added to the team, to me he just pips Szmodics to player of the season so far, just down to his consistency of performance, he was excellent again yesterday. Sigurdsson has shown flashes of what he can do and I am pleased we have signed him permanently, Ennis I feel will prove to be a decent signing if he can stay injury free and get a good pre season behind him in the Summer. Leo to me seems to have the makings of a good keeper, but needs to cut out the odd mistake that has cost us. Telalovic we just don't know, could probably do with a loan away to get some game time and have a proper look at him. Of the 2 loans, Hill has been a quality signing, albeit looking in need of a rest recently, while Moran, has ability but seems lightweight to me. So there we are, a mixed bag as ever with this team. Better than last season though n my opinion without the results to prove it. Last season there really were some horror performances, notably Preston at home and Burnley away along with s few more where we just didn't turn up. This season. I can only think of Southampton last week where we were really poor and deserved what we got Overall marks out of 10 6.5

Apparently Sunderland fans were chanting his name the last 15 minutes of yesterdays defeat by Cov. 😄😄

Ffs So it looks like 4 centre backs across the back 4. Not ideal to say the least

Looks like another contract extension , presumably Hyam ?

Puts things in perspective, but latest he's alert and talking. Second time it's happened, got to think about his health now surely

Elliott Jackson saying could be a surprise in formation so could be possible

Didn't we buy Pickering from there and loan him back (I think). Maybe do the same with this lad (if we are interested)

And one of the few where we could sell for a decent amount of money and make a huge profit . That's were we are at the moment in case you hadn't realized

One of the main complaints about the team is a lack of height, yet we won't be interested because we only take short corners ? Wow

Last 15 mins has just been non existent in terms of actual football being played, Wimbledon going down whenever they can to stop the game. Looks like a disappointing evening. Best chance fell to Tyjon who blazed over the bar from 12 yards

Nothing too much happening. Probably the pick so far for me is Stritch Tyjon also has something about him that I like, good movement and seems a clever player Everything seems to start with Atcheson at the back who likes to stride into midfield with the ball, just guilty of one or two misplaced passes

Rovers fa youth cup game v Wimbledon live on YouTube now. Fineran, Tyjon and Doherty playing

Hyam possibly back and on bench tomorrow according to JDT

Jim watched him in Russia apparently

They only drew last night 1-1 with Coventry. Hopefully the extra days rest for us will be important 1-2 for me

Looks a big lad for 15 tbh looking at the pic.and plenty of growth still to come at that age

I really thought Ipswich would start to fade but it looks like they can go all the way

Yet another game that should have been comfortable and ended up anything but. Lots of positives I thought. Back 4 (and Leo) excellent, good to see Scott Wharton back to his best. Hope his sub was precautionary and he's ok. Tronstad is an immense player for us and quickly becoming a favourite. Siggy also excellent tonight and back to something like. Ennis considering it was his first start was ok for me, again hope that substitution was pre planned. Only disappointment really was Moran who was quite frankly awful

Been studying Ennis's ass and it looks fine to me 😳😳

What a night for young Rory Fineran, becomes the youngest ever member of a first team squad 👋👋
