Shocking defending, leaving one on one all the time!

The 4-3-3 isn't working. Score a few but leaves us so exposed. |

I feel for the travelling fans. I can hardly bear to listen any more.

Turning into a rout. No way back from this.

Lockyear and Sweeney are not working as a central pair as they are both well off their best. Broadbent and Mayonnaise should be give. The nod for Saturday. This is just a joke. We obviously don't like having a neutral goal difference and want to get back to pre-Northampton goal difference. 😂

The players are better than the 'goals conceded' column suggests, but we've known all last season and it's been rammed home this season, Clarke can't organise a defence at this level, he needs help. We've let in more goals than anybody else in the division, only FGR in the entire League have let in more. |

The Northampton one off against a very poor team has papered over a lot of cracks that have been widening since the start if 2017. Not a lot that dc can do until January but maybe menayese and Telford should be given a run

Glad they kept score down to four.
Rovers have featured in only five League games where one side has scored five times before half-time in the Football League. The sole occasion when Rovers have conceded five goals before half-time came at the Vetch Field over Easter 1922, when Rovers lost 8-1 to Swansea. Since then, Rovers have themselves scored five goals before the interval on four occasions.

Mmm. One would like to think a thumping 6-0 away win would give the team bags of confidence to kick on and progress.
a 1-0 home defeat and a thumping away suggests otherwise. Odd, apart from the conclusion as previously mentioned, Cobblers must have been seriously crap!

We should go for broke, launch the kitchen sink for fun. Liverpool in Istanbul style. Arsenal at Reading in the League Cup.

I think we need a 5-3-2 or 4-4-2, concentrate on being solid and difficult to beat for a bit. ......and sign some decent players in January!! |

No heads need to roll, but there is a need to think about why it is that once every few weeks we get turned over, and, whilst we are at it, to look at the away form, it's been shocking since the start of last season. Just 'working hard' on the training ground ain't the answer, if it was the trend would have been reversed, we have an underlying problem, the sooner the manager is honest enough to admit that to himself the sooner it can be addressed. |

The 4-3-3 isn't working. Score a few but leaves us so exposed. last season we started with Locks and Hartley, and were leaky. Sweeney rocked up and it all tightened up nicely this year Sweens seems to be playing the Hartley role, or at least Locks and Sweens are playing the Locks and Hartley roles |

Hope to see a different formation next time out. |

All well and good but as far as I can see not one shot on target thus far Telford is on that should change.
