Rovers Return @ Home

[CroJack]

Paterson gives them the ball on the plate and they don't know what to do with it

 

[CroJack]

Oli Cooper poor ball control in front of BR box. He's been pretty quiet tonight

 

[CroJack]

Fisher another save

 

[CroJack]

They score

 

[CroJack]

Fisher watching the cross instead of doing something. Punching the ball away for example?

 

[The Blobster]

Inevitable !

 

[CroJack]

Josh Thomas in for Cullen, Ntcham for Oli Cooper, and I don't know who replaced Paterson

 

[ivoralljack]

We got what this abysmal display deserved. Winger allowed to cross and two defenders and the keeper watch as the ball is headed in. Way to go, Swans, you're a pretty awful outfit.

 

[ivoralljack]

We're commiting niggly fouls because we can't get the ball. When we do get it we can't keep it!!

 

[CroJack]

0:2

 

[CroJack]

Both goals conceded after a cross from our left side

 

[The Blobster]

Lol , is it too soon to say Duff out ?

 

[CroJack]

Fulton injured

 

[CroJack]

And they stopped the stream before the final whistle. Embarassing.

 

[ivoralljack]

Lol , is it too soon to say Duff out ?

Not for me. Duff is showing as a real duff manager on this evidence. We're a shower of shite right now and he's taking us backwards at a rate of knots.

 

[The Blobster]

Yates and Key must be wondering what the hell they've got themselves into, Piroe must be thinking get me out of here!

 

[Yankee_Jack]

I only managed to watch very little of the match ... lucky me from what I've read.

Thomas gets a cameo at the end. What a waste for the lad.

Clearly, we're not controlling and punishing the opposition as we should. It's going to be a long couple of seasons.

 

[Victoria Swan]

Crap game, not entertaining and, worst thing of all, they showed no shame at how abysmal they were.

 

[CroJack]

Too early for such conclusions. It's better we concede sloppy goals now than in the league. The first half was not so bad when it comes to passing, pressing and going forward. It was bad defensively but that's because we lack pace and we still lose the ball in dangerous areas around our box. Second half was really poor.

We desperatelly need Allen, Walsh and Ginnelly to come back from injuries, we need a couple of full-backs, we need a new keeper, and we need a couple of wingers. And frankly, a couple of centre-backs too. Cabango is too slow, and Darling and Wood's attitude stinks.

Abdulai looked good, I was Worried when he went down at the end. Looks to be ok though. I would agree our pace is lacking. It's noticable defensively. It's still preseason and Duff has work to do. It may be a slow start to the season.
