Match Thread Bristol Rovers(A) @15.00 2nd April

This will make it 9 wins from their last 12 for Bristol Rovers, they've managed to hit the kind of form we'd have needed to make the play offs.

Fair play to them.

 

Not always.

 

It's a reverse of when we played them. When even their own local paper said we should have butchered them.

I'm afraid as we have no-one to take chances, then when we have a game like this where few are created - we are knackered!!

 

Jamie Rayner saying he committed himself and didn't get the ball. I didn't see that.

 

Selective? How many mistakes have their defenders made whilst passing from or across their defence. Answers on a full stop . Be honest!

 

We've been second best from the start. They're just a better side than we are. It's all about the summer now, this squad is a long way short.

 

I'm sure even if he wasn't some on here will still blame him

 

Probably worst performance under Hughes. We can’t string 3 or 4 passes together and have zero influence up front.

 

well we all knew something like this was gonna happen

 

Getting creamed.. i suppose when you keep playing your overweight NSF thats what you get

 

We can do another clear out, perhaps we will, but we've seen a few previous clear outs doing quite well.

Jamie Proctor has scored today for Port Vale (in the playoffs)
Tim Dieng has scored today for Exeter (2nd place)
Omari Patrick has scored for Carlisle (Carlisle are crap, but could still finish ahead of us)

I'm definitely not saying I'd take Patrick back, but how many clear outs do we have, and how often are players proven to be good enough?

Food for thought...

 

Lots of bodies on the line, they got there first.

 

Another mistake for the second goal. Not very good our central defenders

 

True, but thanks to Adams we only have one centre back at the club!

Berserk decision, regardless of how good Canavan was.

That's like getting rid of all our non scoring forwards, keeping only Andy Cook, then insisting on playing two up top.

Inevitably you're going to get a Cook-Gilliead partnership, and even if Gilliead plays well, it's not going to be good enough.

Adams' final mistake, that.

 

I hope Bristol Rovers go up and get rid if them. Never beaten them away in our entire history

 

Definitely our worst performance. Beaten by a better team, simple as that really. I can't wait for a few of these to move on, the question is whether we can recruit much better than we have for several years in the summer.

 

We look the slowest team in the league in every area of the pitch. Only Vernam has any sort of mobility about him
