Martin on the bench is a shock, he’s been playing very well, he makes the team click

the last 2 games when he.has come off him and Sinclair have had words,but he has been playing well, matching up Wednesday's formation 352 by the looks of it

Maybe it's an attitude thing as rich says, hopefully comes off the bench with a point to prove.

Jack Hunt on the right for Wendies.  Commentator has to be careful saying that.
Alfie May scored again after 3minutes!

Losing Rowe is a big blow, no dirty play, just his ankle giving way by the sounds of it.

Wednesday look confident and patient as if they expect to beat us anytime they choose.    A first goal today for us would really be great to unsettle their confidence, here’s hoping we get it.

You don’t see a Rovers pen for ages and then 2 come along. Now to keep up the effort in the second half.

That’s typical Darren Moore w**k football. They’ll have all possession but boring. We’ll win this 2-0.

Love Tommy's commitment but he surely needs resting, hasn't looked fit for last few games.
Slowly grown into this game & actually started playing a bit of football.
Great pen by Dan, I was nervous he was gonna go down the middle again.

Decent half that. We’ve had some flashes of very nice play.

Copps on commentary is such a joy. It’s an education.

Three points from safety as it stands.

Well, well, well!

Dare we hope? Dare we?

Tommy will be a big miss as it becomes backs to the wall time but, Dan Gardner has been a calming influence in the middle of the park & what a penalty! Alan Shearer esk!,

Good first half from Rovers that, Bannen is the key for them, he has a free role, doesn't seem to have a fixed position, he's all over the bloody place, but Smith is doing well against him, chasing him down when he gets the ball. Thank goodness we seem to have found someone who knows how to take a penalty, not down the middle this time, high and powerful to the goalie's right, unstoppable!! Eell done Gardner, should give his confidence a boost no end.

A long way to go in this yet but if we stick to the game plan, concentrate and don’t make silly mistakes, we could have 3 points in the bag by 5pm. COYD

Another tight ship this half, not difficult against Moore football so long as Rovers are careful. Wednesday now looking to kick Rovers off the field!

There's going to be a meltdown from some people when they found out his scored a hat trick.

For me, he's moved on, so we move on. There's nothing we can do about it

It was a good-spirited performance by us.

Younger has had a bit of a mare for the last two goals.

We could do with a psychologist at the club, we fall apart as soon as we concede every time

Too much long ball from us, losing it and they break

Post by: PDX_Rover on February 19, 2022, 04:53:37 pm
Their second goal was unfortunate. A good turn and shot against tired legs. Third was a breakaway when we’re chasing the game.

I’m not going to criticise the lads. The quality in the bench that Wednesday have is the difference this game. And fresher legs obviously.

Full time, going so well until they scored and then did what Donny has done all season and collapsed.

Agree. Plus they were able to bring on very good players. We had Dodoo and Agard who simply aren’t in the same class.
Title: Re: TLOD V Owls
Post by: DRFCSouth on February 19, 2022, 05:24:45 pm
30% possession through a game just isn't enough.

It might work against the odd opponent, or if we were a clinical counter attack team. But its not quite enough against everyone.

Spending so long chasing the ball must be damaging us, and one reason for conceding late so often.
Title: Re: TLOD V Owls
Post by: drfchound on February 19, 2022, 07:56:38 pm
We simply played too deep in the second half and invited Weds on to us.
We did look knackered after about 70 minutes.
There are signs of improvement  though.
