  1. He played a big part in creating a few chances, one great flick on with his head (I’d say behind Graham He’s probably our most useful attacker in the air), one where he dropped deep turned a defender and turned defence into attack and a couple of brillIant balls in behind the defence to Nyambe to put good crosses in, few more as well. Armstrong looked dangerous today but I think he’s too greedy, looks to shoot every time and apart from his worldie effort was wasteful today more often than not.
  2. We used to find it hilarious when Tugay did his antics and I’m sure we deployed similar tactics at Frank Lampards Derby this season. What does frustrate is the limp hurry up motion the refs usually make without backing it up with action until they bring the yellow out in the last minute usually
  3. I still can’t work out why Mowbrays planned sub (until the goal) was Rothwell for Graham with Brereton sat not even warming up
  4. Some good positives today The aforementioned Nyambe, raya came through unscathed, Rodwell looks totally assured, Palmer and Armstrong both a handful and Brereton again making an impact. Graham had a stinker again though and Dack enigmatic, he kept tripping over the ball but somehow by doing so fooled defenders and opened it up. For me it’s time to roll the dice and throw in Brereton from the off
  5. Good result for you, a little unadventurous at times and some frustrating time wasting but that’s football; Rovers fans used to love Tugay and his trademark 5 minute walk offs, it’s the refs jobs to clamp down on it. Frustrating for Rovers but football has and always will be the same, you need to take your chances and today we didn’t. I do think Mowbray was too slow to make changes today and bizarrely wasn’t going to bring Brereton on until the Rotherham goal he was swapping Graham for Rothwell
  6. Breaking news Mercer has his licence to print money revoked
  7. Dack just has the knack even when not performing
  8. Well if you don’t take your chances Not sure why Rothwell is primed to come on ahead of Ben
  9. Really frustrating, Palmer had the ball inside our half with two men on him, Dack in front didn’t move a muscle to help out Nyambe looking amazing going forward
  10. We won’t bring Dack off because he is always a threat and has magic in him from nowhere but on merit of the performance it wouldn’t be unfair
  11. Odd half Rotherham doing the job they came to do but could have been leading. Palmer our best player for me always looking to make things happen and Armstrong always willing as well. Graham and Dack have had little of the ball, Dack has looked like tripping himself up at times. Problem now is they will increase the time wasting and the game could come to a nothing 0-0
  12. That’s what he’s good at, his left foot is pretty awful
  13. Palmer is genuinely good in the air it’s a quality in him that we don’t have much of and is overlooked
  14. Hope Raya is ok, that’s one hell of a mask he has on, I think I would have been tempted to give him till after the break Just came and claimed one he probably needed that early
  15. I like that team although would have loved to see Big Ben get a go
  16. Palmer got branded as a show pony early but his work rate has been good recently. Because of his languid style on the ball it’s reslly noticeable when he gives the ball away but I like that he’s always looking to make things happen.
  17. The romantic in me wants to see him back but realistically his chances of making it are getting slimmer
  18. Chapman turned 21 today... Last night he played for Boro under 23s, set up a goal and then pulled up holding his hamstring and was subbed off. Its going to get to the point where the poor lad is scared to sprint
  19. Very very little to do One occasion early on he dropped a simple cross but gathered it again and no drama after that, kicking was decent.
  20. I saw Davenport outside the ground at the fanzone today, he literally looks about 13!
  21. Good Cameo and some great game management, much more promise seen there
  22. Great win, really poor performance for the most part but we will take that Didnt happen for any of our attacking players until Big Ben won us the penalty
