I think he was telling him "Good job you turned down that contract offer, mate, you'd never get on ahead of their #9. What a player he is - put us both to shame".

You only have to see the state of the ground to know they definitely refuse to sign cheques. Never mind the state of the pitch.

You need an early yellow card to stamp out the niggly fouls. They break up the play and only benefit one team. I'm not saying book players for every foul, but after two or three by the same player he should be in the book for persistent fouling. The two Burnley CMs and FBs did the exact same thing and it ruined the game.

He has a really poor range of passing for a CM. Another Evans - gets a nosebleed if he ventures beyond the halfway line and can only really pull out 5 yard passes.

It'd be peak Rovers to spaff the entire budget on a slow CAM.

This ref hasn't booked them for anything. I'm amazed you're allowed to constantly foul players and not get booked. Just absolutely ruins the game - Burnley did the same thing.

That's simply unfair. They're all working their socks off, there's just 4 or 5 out there that simply aren't good enough for this level. Cantwell is being asked to play CM by the way.

He's not. He's hobbling - he can't run.

I honestly hate the entire England squad from that period. Wasters.

Their GK has made two excellent saves.

Disappointed nobody raked their studs down his achilles before he got subbed off.

A tap in, yeah? He ain't getting that service here, mate.

Didn't book that ex-Swansea lad for trying to take Gueye's shirt off him on the break and the Danish thug for his 12th foul. Awful ref.

He's been anonymous to be fair. Not worth the supposed £1.75m price tag.

Conceding the game - just trying to save legs.

This ref is a cunt I'm afraid.

It happens every year - the December / January period decides the season. Those with big squads or who get lucky with injuries pull away. We've obviously had a rash of injuries ('cos players have been asked to play too much) and a tiny squad.

LOL if Brittain's injured we're absolutely fucked.

Yeah, their tactic of just dropping the ball into the 6 yard box with someone illegally blocking the GK is a nightmare to deal with.

The only chance of real substance was the Gueye header, and that was a good save. The Gueye shot and the Batth header are half chances at best that, on an other day, maybe go in. Too many times we've got into good positions and either refused to cross it or chosen the wrong option.

They've been ok - Hedges the worst of that bunch by a mile, obviously. A few mistimed passes by JRC and Cantwell refusing to take the game by the scruff of the neck, but by and large we've been on top. There's just no quality going into the box.

Give over. You're expecting your CM to win a header against a 6'3" CF at the back post? It's not happening - and again is why it's BAFFLING we don't whip the ball into the box for our 6'5" CF at every opportunity.

As I've said previously - Eustace is the reason we are where we are. Most managers in this division are shit (including the waster in the opposition dugout tonight). Give him Coventry's squad and he's challenging for automatics.

There's been no quality into the box, again.

LOL how is Binks clearing the ball a foul by Gueye? These refs.
