What the heck did I just watch? We have an absolutely enormous gaping hole in the middle of the pitch and it looks like we’re playing Brazil.

Never seen Tony this angry and who can blame him, I can’t name one single rovers player who had a decent half.

Even if we do, as yet we haven’t activated it. 

Why would we though, clubs typically leave this until the last possible moment to, er, keep their options open.

Skååååååååååål!

Skål, hurra for gjenåpning 🙂 🙂 🙂

Total comedy goal that, I’ll take it 😂

Think some people here need to look at the bigger picture. Win at home, draw away will be more than enough for a playoff place this season.
There are in fact two teams on the pitch and Barnsley defended well. Thankfully they weren’t great going forward.
Also fatigue maybe played its part today since we can’t really rotate players much. 

Kaminski, Ayala, Pickering good, Brereton and Travis better than last time. Poveda poor. Edun didn’t look bad to me. Can we rate the players yet?

Edun on for Rothwell

Clarkson and Khedra on for Poveda and Dolan now

Trust me it’s worse to watch it. Poveda needs to get hooked, I almost feel sorry for him now if it weren’t for that haircut

This may be the first game this season where the bench actually looks half decent.

Brereton just isn’t pressing enough to play as a lone striker, also we are far too deep most of the time.

Devastating end to the game, but some of the people on here need to get a grip. We're ninth in the table, we were sixth at half time and although we lost at the end we clearly looked the better team (not saying much tbf as Luton were awful).

I see quite a few of you believing Mowbray will be sacked in the morning. I'm not Mowbray's biggest fan, but that will never happen. If anything the start of the season has been better than expected. If and when we go on another death spiral it's high time to get rid, but until then try to calm down just a notch with the hate.

It's complete bullshit. We're paying the price of a Young Adult season ticket yet never going to the ground, no need for staff throughout the year to help us or stewards to guard us. We just want to watch the game online. 

It used to be a pain when it was 79quid a season but since increasing the price by 125% then now...It's just not good enough.

I agree. Probably not the club’s fault though, it’s a flawed broadcasting model in the first place. To watch the game today I would have to subscribe to a TV channel for £30 a month showing reality tv and such which I have zero interest in. And this is probably the only rovers game they have on for a good few months.

Think it was 170 quid I paid so that's one hell of a month's splurge if it was!!!

It's fine...I'm just watching Ronaldo instead. Not that he's done owt yet. Tell you what, that Saint Maximan is a heck of a player...

You have the season ticket same as me. As another poster informed me the game is in fact being broadcast internationally even though the EFL website says otherwise. That’s why we get the unauthorized country error.

It's on Viaplay in Norway today thus ifollow don't have the rights.

Thanks for the info. No mention of this anywhere else. I’m starting to hate Viaplay with a passion now.

What’s going on with RoversTV? 
It says the video is unavailable in my country (Norway) but it should be as the only broadcasted match today is the Blackpool game. It even says so on EFLs website.

You just can’t ever trust RoversTV.

If our U23s are as good as some on here hope they might be, why aren't other Championship clubs queuing up to buy or loan them?  Just a thought.......

They might be, however our squad is too thin to let them go. 
The positive view on the slow transfer window is that many of the youngsters will get their chance over the course of the season.

Well happy with a point after that second half.

Starting to come more into the game now. If Diaz shows up we’ll nick it.

We must make changes in midfield, it’s just not there. 
Buckley and Dolan coming on now.

We need to step it up. getting murdered out there now.

Magloire on for Rothwell. Not sure how that affects the formation

We are struggling down the right with Carter already on a yellow against their left winger who is probably their best player first half.

Pickering doing ok on the other side but has stayed at the back most of the time.

Poveda looks like a good addition already, direct in his approach and pretty quick. He got the assist as well I believe.

Who just hit that pathetically weak shot at the end of the half?

Brereton. Was facing the wrong way and should have left it for Rothwell who was in a better position.

The video stream graphic has the team down as 4-2-3-1, Gally up top with Clarkson behind him. Buckley right midfield, BBD left.

BBC is normally all over the place with positions of players, last week against Millwall they had Rothwell at centre back. 
 

I really hope it’s 

Kaminski 

rwb: Buckley

cb: Lenihan, Carter, Ayala

lwb: Pickering

cm: Buckley, Travis, Rothwell

st: Gally, Diaz

5-3-2.

play direct and use gally and Diaz’s physicality.

 

As good as Buckley is I don’t think it’s wise to play him in two positions
