Pint looks well. A lick of paint, the photo of McCann has been taken down and Big Dave is up above the bar. Peebles has got the lamb ready...
-
Lamb shank in the oven. Might even have a wee lucky pint!!
-
Hard to know what to expect today isn’t it?

Decent lamb, perfectly seasoned, is a given Dave!

Seeing the team in the cold light of day doesn't look like a top six squad. Hope I'm wrong. Fingers crossed.
-
Any 1s sound dodgy on I follow ?

Well, we haven’t finished the squad yet, so perhaps we should wait and see.??
-

Yes ... totally garbled. Dreadful audio. When will they ever get it right !

Sometimes it's the less expected that can shine through. Let's see what the day, and season, brings :scarf:

New season, same old rovers player.
-
Yup, same here with the choppy audio. Think I’m glad to know it’s not just me. Listening in from Petaluma near San Francisco. Next best thing to being at the Keepmoat!
-
How we doing?
-
A bit disjointed and Gillingham have had a couple of chances.. Copps looks our best player by miles so far..

How is that not at least a yellow if it's a foul?!

For what.? 20 minutes into the first game.?
-
Johnathan Forte sat in the east stand, think exeter released him last season
-
Rovers coming into it.. everything going through Copps. He needs some help.

For Copps to look our best player! :) we will never have a player like him again... :rtid:
-
I get you.!
-
Sunderland losing at home and Fleetwood 2 up at Peterborough!
-
0-1
-
1 down! :headbang:
-
Whoops! :unsure:
-
Easy goal for the Gills. We look half asleep in defence.
-
Rovers have had a few calamitous moments at the back and that was one of them. Gillingham the much better side at the moment.
-
Gillingham the better side at the moment. All our good play is through Copps but we look like 11 individuals rather than a team so far
-
Sadlier looks lost up front on his own.
-
Its not looking good
-
Terrible defending on so many levels.

-
Sadlier looks lost up front on his own.
Completely. Not commanded the ball in any shape or form.
This Gomes to me looks miles off it also.
-
Sheaf looks a tidy player albeit a bit lightweight
-

Is he playing up front or is May?

He's upfront. May is on the right wing and Gomes on the left (although they've switched at least once).

Crying out for a forward bet at least we are in for 1 soon

We’re supposed to be in talks for 2.
-
We have one on the branch from Wolves.
-
Gomes is not upto it
Blair or Crawford on for him
-
Can see this Gomes lad coming off at half time.
-
Gomes reminds me of Wilks on a bad day 😉
-
1-1
-

So that makes tree then?
-
Sadlier!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Take it all back ... cracking goal from Sadlier.
(created by Copps)
-
Great goal from Sadlier
-
1-1
Sadler! Yessssss!
-
Great movement off the ball by sadlier to create the space and a fine pass by Copps. Cracking finish - we needed that lift having been iffy at the back..
-
Wish we still had Butler
-
Virtually the last kick of the half. Nice clip through the defenders by Copps and Sadlier smashes it past the keeper
-
Awful first half great goal, overall not good enough though
-
Cracking finish by Sadlier but he certainly isn't a striker.
Not been a great game so far, we've had very little in the final third.
-
Let's not write us off though, we didn't start brilliantly against Southend last season.
-
Well, my thoughts on the 1st half:
Gillingham the better team, they look sharper, taller, and stronger.
Rovers play has ALL comes through Copps. He's the only creative player there which is worrying.
Sadlier was completely out of the game until his goal. Poachers finish, and a good one.
Forward line up is too small (Sadlier, May, Coppinger). Unless its on the deck we have no chance (this must be a real concern for Moore).
Defensively we've had a few shaky moments (but could be early season jitters)
Stand out player for Rovers has been Copps, with Sheaf looking very solid.
Sheaf is doing the job we previously saw Whiteman doing so I don't know what Whiteman's role is now really.
Gomes looks off the pace to me, sloppy passing, mis controls, and blowing out of his arse I noticed in the last 5/10 minutes.
until the goal I was really worried, hopefully the turning point.
-
May and Gomes need taking off. May missing in action and Gomes not good enough
-
It’s the first game though and we are still building the squad.. Anderson and Copps standing out for me.. Gomes not looking great yet - but it’s unfair to be too critical this early..
-
I think May is doing ok to be honest..
-

Agreed.. limp.. lacklustre. No creativity at all and still not sure what Whitemans role is
-
I think May is doing ok to be honest..
Same.
-
Baptiste looking a bit ropey imo. Everyone else done ok considering we’ve got to gel. Always knew we’d be light up front but when we’ve got the ball down we look ok
-
That was a brilliant goal (vid attached here), Copps and Sadlier in tune and the most sweet and perfect execution from both.
Copps was given some time on the ball there, I imagine Evans will be giving instruction to close him down quick, and hard. I fear for an injury.

-
We’re getting none of the 50/50 decisions
-
Much better so far this half now we’ve started to play it around on the floor
-
Yeah, we look better here.
-
Agreed..
-
Ennis on for Gomes.
Sadlier drops back into the three
-
Can’t afford another defensive slip but we look on top just now..
-
Audio is back on player for those who had it on mute.
-
Do we look like scoring a second goal?
-
Is Ennis the new Wilks?
-
Yes, Ennis looks a great prospect. Been really good since coming on.
This ref is doing his best to stop it though by being utterly useless
-
We are looking more dangerous yes but not too many shots..
-

How?
-
Two good chances at the end, May after a good run, cuts inside but straight at keeper. Then ball worked into middle for Whiteman but drags it a foot wide
-
Very good second half rovers. Halliday my man of the match.
-
Finishes 1-1. Good point?
-
Decent point considering the ongoing squad building..
A lot better 2nd half..
-

Which May one.? The one a bit before was going into the far corner..
-
First half we were very disjointed without many ideas.
Second half was much better. Played some good stuff and could have grabbed a winner.
Overall a decent point given the lead up to the season
-
Good second half. Gillingham were hanging on the last 15. Not going to judge any of the players badly at this stage. Alfie gets better. Ennis looks some prospect. He put a great sliding tackle in, and played a sublime cross field ball. He’s a big lad too. I’m reasonably happy all things said.
-
I might be wrong but I don’t think gillingham had any efforts on goal in the second half.?
Work in progress for us..

Didn’t look from where I was sat like it was going into the corner and looked a bit central as the keeper didn’t seam to have to dive for it. Either way, the build up run from him was excellent and deserved a goal
-
Not a bad game, but not a good one either. DM has plenty of work to do to get the team to playing
Onwards and upwards
