Pretty sure it was Rodman with the swan dive. Unless me and the BBC got it wrong... www.bbc.com/sport/football/51158773O. Clarke / Ogogo were both pretty poor. 5, 5.5 whatever... I'll wait for Stevek192 to pronounce judgement. Sorry you have two Upson in yor marks |

We didn't deserve to win. "Penalty" looked suspiciously like a dive from Rodman. Early scores on the doors (please refer to Stevek192 tomorrow for the 'real' ones): Blackman 6. Bit shakey a couple of times. THD 3. Burns had him in trouble all game. Poor. Craig 7. Dependable. Davies 5. A bit rusty. Kilgour 6. Did OK - he's not a RB. Sercome 5.5 Odd flashes, didn't really impose himself. O Clarke 4. Rusty, wasteful. Poor. Upson 5. Not up to his usual standards. Ginnelly 6. Great 1st half, faded badly 2nd half. Barrett 6. Quite lively. JCH 6. Looked fitter, though frustrated. Not a great penalty. Ogogo 5.5 Pretty anonymous. Reilly 5. Didn't make an impression. Rodman 6.5 Bit theatrical for the 'penalty'. On the positive side. A point nearer safety. I think we're the only league team not to have scored in 2020 yet. It wasn't THD's fault. Blame Garner for not doing what every single manager of every park team in the world would have done and cut out the supply of ball to their right winger, or got a left midfielder in front of him so that he was double teamed. Garner's plan for dealing with it was to fold his arms and hope for the best. This bloke is a clown as a 1st team manager. It wasn't even subtle, the bloke fell back and gave the same signal every time he wanted the ball played. No pace about anything that we do. The players are frustrated with it. It's horrible to watch. Had Fleetwood come to win that game it would be another L against us. Why didn't Burns have as much impact 2nd half? |

I get the impression that whatever I say here is going to be wrong? So, without knowing how old you are, I'll assume that you were at the play off final against Shrewsbury, Asamoah did something similar on Shrews' right wing, it happened twice in 10 mins, it was sorted from the sideline with a change in formation. That's how long people who know what they are doing take to deal with issues like that. |

You should stick to the club politics section. |

Silly sod, there's a difference between having a good game and having a free run at a defender or constantly being able to turn him and get him facing his own goal. Stop just watching the ball and you may learn something about the game. Or in your case, probably not. |

In the FA Cup match two weeks ago, I was right at the top of the East stand, for which I'd never had a ticket before (in ten years); I took a very different perspective from there, and realised how easy it is otherwise to follow only the ball. |

You agreed with me twice in 1 day. It's weird because on the odd occasions that managers watch from stands they get slated for it. Atkins did it from the TV gantry, he had a phone from there to the home dug out. There's a funny story about that and Junior, but I expect you've heard it already. |

You agreed with me twice in [one] day. Well... Firstly, I agreed with you that you were probably about to say something wrong. Secondly, I ignored your main point and conceded that your epilogue contained within it (possibly by accident) the ghost of a point. Well it's progress of a kind, Bambi. |

If you like, I'll teach you how to use parentheses correctly, as you clearly don't know. |

I really enjoyed that and can see what Ben Garner is trying to do. If we had a striker or two who looked interested we would have won. Good game of football today. you just trying to wind bamber up, or is that a serious comment. Because what leaps out at me from this discussion is everybody saw a different game today. my take. There was nothing to enjoy. It was a dogs dinner of a football match. The only controllable passes were misdirected given away passes. No one played well apart from burns. At times we were doubling up on him, but he still had the class to beat people. Barrett was no where near man of the match, ide probably give highest mark to gin ginnely. Barret was poor again. He resembles a barrel with short fat legs. Josh barrel. One team had the better of it and would have won comfortably if they had their shooting boots on, the other team nearly nicked it with a dodgy penalty. |

It really doesn’t matter so long as you enjoyed it, that is a good thing. We all see things differently. |

I can thinking of nothing worse than to pay £20 plus just to moan for 90 minutes. |

Not going to lie, between the forums, Facebook and Twitter, all this relentless whining without any foundation or concrete evidence, or any discernible will amongst anyone, of a viable solution has become completely sodding tiresome. |

Not going to lie, between the forums, Facebook and Twitter, all this relentless whining without any foundation or concrete evidence, or any discernible will amongst anyone, of a viable solution has become completely sodding tiresome. I would like a proper modern version of a Supporters' Club, with a positive agenda. But as I've been saying for as long as I can remember, the traditional model just isn't going to work, not as a 'start up' anyway. I know that you know this already, but some of the negative stuff is just frustration, it comes from people who honestly want what's best for Rovers. |
