You have to feel for em both. I have never seen 2 centre halves so good at this club together however, they consistently concede goals because of the rest of them. I dont know where to start here.....1. Moore: You are not Pep Guardiola. Stop playing players out of position. Wright is not a RB, James is not a CM, John is not a LB (or a CB for that matter) Why sign Richards if you have players out of their position playing in his? With the injury list as it is, you have to play him whether hes in form, just back from injury or not. What has Danny Amos done wrong? Id be requesting a transfer if I was him. IMO the board has backed him as much as they possibly can. Players hes brought in are just not good enough with the exception of Sims (who played his worst game for us today) and Smith who is the only midfielder who can be happy with his performance. The writing should definitely be on the wall for DM whether you like it or not. Team selection and performances based on the hype of his signings need to change regardless of the injury list. We keep signing kids who have no mens football experience therefore long term injuries are inevitable and performances when fit will always be hit and miss. Thats on him! I keep hearing about how good of a manager/coach he is and yes ive seen patterns of play that suggest he has worked well with the squad but 70% of the performances and results are just not good enough! Its lacked backbone since the Rob Jones era! Im sick of nice footballers!2. Whiteman: Give him his pay day. Not looked like hes wanted to be here at all this season.2. John: NOT A LEFT BACK FFS!!!!! Squad player only for when everyone else you can think of is injured or banned.3. Fej: Please leave the club.4. Lokilo: Praise the Lord hes only on a 1yr contract.I have watched the game long enough to know that when the team on the day have 5/6 players off it you just brush it under the carpet and take it on the chin. But this performance against a team who must be low on confidence due to underperforming have come away from the keepmoat without all 3pts and I almost feel sorry for em! We now have MK Dons, Crewe and an underperforming Sunderland team who have took points from us at home which is fine it happens in a season as a one off but, when youre meant to be one of the better sides in the division and youve created next to nowt in all those games you have to start asking questions. Plymouth was the same and Wimbledon should have been done before HT. It all falls back to the manager. Its a results based sport! That today was daylight robbery. We created nothing, and deserved nothing. No urgency even in injury time! How weve come away at 1-1 i honestly dont know but the result for me just papers over cracks.
Maybe we should ban any posts on the forum when we get beat so as not to upset the luvvies.To read some posts you would think would we played poorly yesterday because we was playing Liverpool not a very average Sunderland team.Yes Sunderland no doubt did set out to stop us playing but does that excuse all the misplaced passes?It seems that anyone who criticises the team and or players doesn't know what they are talking about and aren't real Rovers fans to some.
We, either of our own making or Sunderland's, or both, were very poor yesterday.However, both the late AFC Wimbledon equaliser and the very late equaliser yesterday, cannot be passed off as just lucky. We have got a little extra this season. We are currently two points up on where we were last season and these points have literally come from grinding out those two late equalisers. There are some things that never change (our appalling corner routines and to a lesser extent, set pieces more generally) but digging in right at the end has changed for the better. This comes down to energy, belief and stamina.
Astonishing that 90% of these comments from fans are happy with these lackluster performances and dont think there are any issues need addressing here. Would rather tell me I am not a real supporter, dont know what I am talking about, I am negative Ill shut my trap, agree with all comments and be happy with another bang average season then
What a ridiculous OP, what do people honestly expect??? We got a lucky draw with an excellent Sunderland side and people are hysterical. Whatever the club do is wrong, I’m more than happy with this season. We’re 11th after 11 games and still in the FA Cup, why all the drama. If we have a club at the end of all this we should be grateful, get a grip!

It is the total over reaction by some that happens every time we don’t win is what we are commenting on. To say most of the team are not good enough and Ben Whiteman doesn’t want to be here is quite frankly crazy. The proof is in the pudding. We beat 4 of the best teams in this league in Charlton, Portsmouth, Ipswich & Lincoln and drew with another Sunderland. We have Won 5 Drawn 3 Lost 3 are 11th in the league with 1 or 2 games in hand on nearly all the teams above us. People who criticise the team are entitled to do so but those who wish to criticise those people’s posts are also entitled to. Are they not? Or am I missing something here? Every time I disagree with someone I am accused of not being reasonable by accepting their post. Sorry I am entitled to disagree with something I read and say it is embarrassing or ridiculous if that’s what I think. Just the same as they are entitled to disagree with me.

Crazy how much people lose their heads after one bad performance.We were terrible yesterday - really bad. But we've had a good season so far, some excellent results and played nice football on the whole.Whiteman has had a brilliant season and one bad game and you want him gone. Haha!!Sunderland don't play good football but they were incredibly hard to break down yesterday and their game-plan completely stopped us from playing.Yes it was a robbery but playing that bad against Sunderland and still getting a point is a good sign. Also remember DM only got back on the training pitch on Thursday. Stocksarmy - relax bro.

Wasn't the original post about Wright and Anderson.Can't remember who signed them both, anybody know?

I haven’t seen one that says they are. It’s the over reaction to that performance that we are commentating on. What evidence is there we are going to have a bang average season. We have played only 11 games out of 46 and lost only 3 of those 11. Poor performances happen. DM will not be telling the players he was happy with it. We have a lot of new players in the squad, young players still learning about 1st team League Football. We are not the finished article are we. Let’s see where we are after the Christmas fixtures as that will give us a much more sensible picture of where we are as a team this season imo.
