Rovers v Hartlepool

[Dabby]

Danny Schofield makes two changes to his starting XI

[Thorney]

No Todd Miller even on the bench?

[Metalmicky]

Rocking in here today...

[mugnapper]

I'm guessing it's not a classic lol ?

[keith79]

Them back 3 must be the only ones that train.

[IDM]

Nowt much happening then.?

[Prez]

It’s awful

[i_ateallthepies]

Hartlepool getting into the game now, nearly lobbed Mitchel.

[steve@dcfd]

He’s not coming to far off his line again

[Jersey Rover]

Again no attacking intent, just waiting for Hartlepool to score till we have a attacking mindset

[ScillyRover]

Two poor teams

[Jersey Rover]

Sterile tactics, what is it with Rovers managers.

[coventryrover]

Sat here and I cannot remember the last time we gave a keeper a torrid time...ie .are 5 saves.      Urgggh.

Pools had the two best chances and they are attacking our weaknesses

[bpoolrover]

2 Crap negative teams in that 1st half

[Prez]

Slow, ponderous, no urgency. Hardly and movement. Relying on hopeful balls into the box from Anderson. Lucky not to be losing.

[monkeytennis]

Very lacklustre so far. They are sitting back and waiting for opportunities to break and taking them. If they were a better team they’d be 3-0 up by now.

We seem to have very little attacking intent and no composure on the ball just hoofing it away instead of being decisive. Anderson the worst culprit by far.

[Jersey Rover]

All down the middle, no width, get Moly on down the right, push Hurst out the left and get the Wingbacks bombing down the flanks. The fans must be frigid watching this bore.

[Lesonthewest]

Absolutely awful football.

[Thorney]

2 teams who have lost their last 2 games and appear shit scared of making it 3 so trying to not open up.
Need more from the midfield.

Hurst has been non exisent. Don't know if it's because of the change of shape. Needs to be picking up the ball and running at defenders.
It appears all very flat and lethargic, and that goes for both teams

[normal rules]

Two poor teams . That said they had two good chances . Rovers lucky not be be losing . They are more decisive on the ball and off it . Rovers seem utterly incoherent . Set plays are shocking. Highlight so far was the pre match meal in the Jibba Jabba lounge

[ncRover]

Don’t be fooled by Lavery starting. He’s playing 3-4-3 again. The wider players don’t know their roles. Shocking.

[Copps is Magic]

Things can only get better.

[Thorney]

Game plan seems to be give it to Anderson and then pump it 50yd to there defence. Brilliant
Anderso  seems to think he's become lee tomlin. Trying to play the killer pass. But nobody else is coming for the ball too

[rich1471]

This is very poor ,we lack ideas and a real game plan

[Dutch Uncle]

Getting better in the last few minutes, chances starting to come

[les@donr]

Game such a non evident,  checked local weather, currently minus 22, with the windchill minus 39.

[Sprotyrover]

Bring back the Airfield at least we could climb up to top of Rossi end and watch the Gliders!

[ScillyRover]

Pathetic 0-1

[Barmby Rover]

We seem to have found our level. League 2 strugglers.

[mugnapper]

Things can only get better.

What was that you were saying CIM?
