  1. A victory for endeavour if ever I've seen one. Terrible conditions making for a terrible game but a brilliant result. Once again, like the Boro game, no need to single anyone out for criticism, another team win with another clean sheet, and without player of the season up to now, Travis. Looks like we've a bloke in charge who knows what he's doing.
  2. To be honest, Gueye did at Hull what Hedges should have done at Preston. Either take the net out or put it out the stadium.
  3. My mate messaged me, imagine the reaction if Pears let that in. Conditions were terrible, but you're right, it was a mistake.
  4. Yeah, hoping for a draw, but Boro should have wrapped up the points. That header was a sitter and another couple of chances.
  5. I wouldn't say next few, he isn't that inconsistent, but he's always likely to throw in a stinker, but who isn't? The thing with Dolan is that when we do lose, or sometimes even draw, he can receive an unrealistic amount of stick for an overall poor team performance.
  6. And yet he was rightly named man of the match on Saturday. Doesn't sound like the player you described.
  7. He'd be right, although to be fair, Arsenal can play some great stuff.
  8. Poor defending from United there, nobody picked up Fashanu from Laurie Sanchez's corner.
  9. Correct decision, great performance. He's as capable of being our best player as he is of having a bad un. He's a very important squad member. Just why the "Hedges and Dolan" thing ever started, I've no idea, Dolan is much more valuable to Rovers.
  10. Norwich, when Tronstad apologised for his own mistake. That pass to the edge of the area is a big part of how Rovers play, it's played umpteen times a game. That we're talking about 2 instances in dozens of games where it went wrong but didn't actually cost us a goal would suggest it works rather well.
  11. You're rewriting history, Tronstad called for the ball, Pears got his angles right and bailed him out. Most importantly it was Tronstad who apologised, I don't know how much evidence you need.
  12. I always say that the one thing Dolan does is set the tempo, and now Ohashi is looking like he's up to speed to help him,and Cantwell doesn't shirk his responsibilities either.
  13. My main grumble has always been that any replacement keeper won't/wouldn't be subjected to the same scrutiny. If a new keeper had come in in the summer and performed the same as Pears has this season, he would be lauded, not scrutinised to the nth degree.
  14. The one at Norwich was, Tronstad asked for the ball, lost it and apologised. Pears still got the blame on here. The fact we're talking about mistakes that didn't actually result in a goal, should in itself suggest he's having a good season.
  15. You could just say Pears is doing fine, which he is.
  16. Only seen it live, but looked like Ohashi probably should have scored, and Beck should definitely have buried the rebound.
  17. Similar to the Boro performance, although we created a lot more against a better team, just how we only scored once is a mystery. Dolan deservedly man of the match, with Tronstad very close behind him. All in all though an excellent team performance, as on Wednesday, no need to single anyone out for criticism today. An unexpected but brilliant 6 points from the last 2 games.
  18. Beat me to that one.
  19. You just never know how Beck would have done against Doak, if there's history between them and all that. Got a feeling it might have made Eustace's mind up for him, although Pickering played well enough at Cardiff to warrant keeping his place anyway.
  20. Not knocking anyone tonight, great team performance, we're actually looking like a well coached team. In hindsight, playing Pickering was probably as important a selection as any. He'd a good game against a supposedly brilliant opponent.
  21. If you've 10 years of drainage behind you, I'm not doing the rodding😁
  22. To be honest, that does sound as unofficial as it gets.
  23. I've just seen a video showing the height of the river, and a separate still of the pitch drain underwater. I'd imagine that's the problem.
  24. To be honest, i wasn't disappointed it was off, and if it was unplayable at 11,it definitely was at 3 so correct decision. Shame for the Pompey faithful, but this weather was predicted a good while ago. Whenever a game is called off, there will always be questions asked. I always find the "why are they playing and we're not" argument a bit ridiculous.
