  1. At that point Armstrong had been our worst player ...... and he's been poor for several weeks now.
  2. The last 20 minutes was our best period of the game. You should have seen the first 70
  3. Some good points in there. Mowbray should pick the below and stick with them. It's a flawed team and some players have obvious weaknesses but they are the best we have at present. Nyambe; Lenihan, Ayala, Douglas or Downing Elliott, Holtby, Johnson or Trybull, Rothwell Armstrong, Gallagher Forget about Buckley / Williams and one or 2 others.
  4. Tony doesn't help himself, or maybe he does it deliberately, but that starting XI was never going to work and we only looked a more cohesive unit when the entire midfield had been replaced. Rev's right, watching Rovers under Mowbray does wear you down because as a bullshitting talking head you know he's taking us on a road to nowhere, and getting excited at victory is completely pointless.
  5. It wasn't just the poor football and poor performance - the players didn't look up for it and wandered around for 70 minutes as though they couldn't care less. The first half was as devoid of passion as I've seen from Rovers in many years. Tony has to take the blame - not only did he pick the wrong team, they went into the match in the wrong frame of mind.
  6. Buckley instead of Holtby ? Buckley is 21 but plays like he's 17 (the opposite to Elliott). He needs to spend a season in league one and get 40 games under his belt. At present he's just a lightweight and should never start a game
  7. After that amount of time I'd have expected some insight Most disappointing.
  8. I'm sure Gallagher has concrete in his boots instead of feet. His first touch is awful and his second is usually a tackle to try and get the ball back
  9. Totally undeserved but it's the result that counts. Mowbray got it totally wrong with his starting XI. Dropping Holtby for Buckley was ridiculous The manager will continue to frustrate and annoy
  10. First player I'd drop after sacking the manager is Armstrong.
  11. This is lamentable. Rotherham are as bad as us Gallagher poor control then a crap pass
  12. Relief from the football. It's so painful to watch
  13. He's 21 already. He should be showing much more by now
  14. Should be back next year after a 4-year restoration. That's the most fun I've had tonight
  15. Why single out one player when the whole team looks like it can't be bothered?
  16. This is pretty awful. Rotherham has 2 better chances
  17. Very poor so far. We're such an ordinary side. no drive or direction
  18. Agree. Midfield looks all wrong to me. Where's the defensive cover apart from the floundering Johnson?
  19. Wouldn't drop Holtby myself, and I'd rather see a 4-4-2 than 4-3-3. Midfield looks inexperienced and lightweight
  20. So that's West Brom safe. Good appointment, though the fans who think football is about "entertainment" won't like it.
  21. Wouldn't it be wonderful to see a properly organised team with a well drilled defence? And Rovers in the top 6 and challenging for promotion? Anyway, back to tonight and more confused thinking and tinkering from Tony
