Tougher game than we'd imagine IMHO...

 

Going for a 3-0 win for them with Alan Warboys scoring the lot.

 

I am not getting involved in the shit on the thread regarding that Blade getting chinned, so will say it on here...................just go back a few years regarding him....all will be revealed....a Saint my fucking arse...

And Josh definitely not suspended.

 

Yet.

The knockers won't like it but we are better with Madine

 

It's time we put to bed this utter bollocks about anybody being able to do what he does

 

Long certainly can't

 

Anyway, they were as good as anything I've seen this season but to be fair their defence could've brought deck chairs

 

Wabara seriously undercooked. And I think we are just too unsettled through a combination of injuries and suspensions

 

On Vela I hear lies has changed his mind

 

As an aside, he wS no worse than us but the ref wAs a cock

 

It's still there for us, but not without the bloke who is no better than a park player

Our system does not work without Madine it's as simple as that ...... spearing out vela suspended we are struggling ..... I've no idea why we can't knock it short and play through midfield.

 

Thought Bristol rovers were excellent physical fit and with 2 outlets on the wings they should have had 4 minimum ...... wabara hmmm not keen all tape round the wrist and socks over knees bullshit

We had 1 fit midfield player playing tonight and a striker who can't hold the ball up as it's not his game therefore 1 point on the back of Scunthorpe losing was a result with the team we put out and the excellent Rovers performance let's not put white flag up yet.

Spearing poss out for 4-6 weeks

That could be the nail in the coffin if true.

 

We were third best tonight.

We can't knock it short cos we never had the ball

We can't knock it short cos we never had the ball

Wheater and Beevers had it plenty and kept hoofing it to Long ...... mind you I'd probably not want to give it to trotter or spearing with their back to goal in our half

We need both Madine and Spearing - part of the backbone with Wheater making the three 

 

Did you see what happened to Spearing because Iles never mentioned an injury

 

Going to be really tough now and Wombles wont be easy

Point gained, they were miles better than us

 

They had 2 great chances in second half

 

Howard was very shaky suprisingly, Derik was garabage but the tactics were the biggest disappointment

 

If you havent got a guy up top who can hold it up, then don't belt balls in the air .... use the wings

 

Whether the ref is right or wrong, it is pointless arguing with the linesman when you are already on a yellow

If it's correct about Spearing then that's it for me fucking Trotter and Thorpe God help us thank god I am off to the Maldives for 10 days !

We need Madine up top for any chance of top 2, it's that simple for me.

 

But we'll be coming straight back down.

Spearing limped away from the 50-50 that saw their lad go off in the first half. Never looked right after that.

I can't see us going up TBH!

Noticed Ameobi not featured on Newcastle bench again, not being able to keep him will be our biggest loss this season

We lack a bit of belief I think

Had draw written all over it.

 

Not from where I was sitting. It had a 1-3 + loss written all over that. Did Bristol Rovers really just give us a lesson in football?

 

The knockers won't like it but we are better with Madine

 

 

Speaking to a mate before the game. (Edit - He works for the club) Madine is on an internal discipline suspension. Don't know how long for though.

 

Word is, Madine got to the dressing room on Saturday at Sheff United and was given an absolute bollocking from Parky in front of the rest of the team and then sent back to the bus.

Win game in hand were second FFS some folk chuck up white flag way too early.

Truly awful performance. I understand the changes to personnel can unsettle the team, but by fcuk the tactics were dreadful, Long didn't win a header all night when challenged, now I don't know much about him but he seems like he likes to play off the shoulder. Played far to deep as a result of the hoof. Will have to put this behind us, but Phil's tactical naivety showed tonight. On to Saturday.

That was awful but fair play to rovers, they played very well.

 

Shocking by parky. The Derik move should never ever happen again.

 

Long was played a fool. He needs to learn from that.

 

We're proper shite without madine and spearing.

Hopefully spearings scan will be good to us

Very lucky to get a point.

 

Good start and nice goal.

 

After that they dominated and should've won.

Hopefully spearings scan will be good to us
