I said it in a thread earlier in the week, we were very unlikely to win today. I wouldn’t be judging us too harshly on games like today. Improved performance coming on Tuesday. Another physical team in Gills but a pretty poor one.
The next three games will see where we are at as a team.I full expect us to pick up a minimum of 5 points, and hopefully 7.There are improvements in the team, we weren't that bad this afternoon, with a fair wind we could've been level by half time.

We haven’t played anyone yet below 17th. Our next 6 games are massive and all against team who are in and around us. If we’re still where we are after them 6 u can then start to ask questions. I still have faith that we will turn it around as we were the better side against a team who will be looking to go straight back up just didn’t look like scoring but it’s just a matter of time before we click in the final third imo and this run in could be that turning point.

We weren’t really the better side. They allowed us to have the ball (which makes us look better) because they were fully aware we couldn’t break them down. And we didn’t really have a meaningful chance other than a pot shot that hit the angle of post/crossbar.Forget the stats. All I know is that if we lose on Tuesday and Saturday we are in big, big trouble
Can someone tell me what Bostock offered yesterday. Complete waste of time imo. He is a luxury this team can’t afford to have. Galbraith is 3 times the player he is. What we need is a proper holding midfielder who can break play up which will allow Close and Galbraith to play their natural games. Our midfield is far too disjointed because they are all trying to cover for each other instead of functioning as a cohesive unit.

Its very frustrating watching this team at the moment.it's similar to a lot of Rovers teams we've seen over the years.Nice build up play but seem undecided what to do when they get near the box. Hesitating and deciding to pass when a shot might have been the better option.By the way when the second goal went in a fella sat near me got up and left. "I've seen enough" he muttered.Can never see the point of leaving THAT early.We could've won 3-2!
I don’t like making scapegoats but I think that Williams looks like a competition winner, think he’s been absolutely hopeless for us. Ed Williams could probably make a better stab of it. He’s young and may improve but he needs taking out of the firing line for a while for me, hopefully John’s back soon but Oluwu has to start the next game.
I just dont understand why we didnt play the game last week whilst the team were on a bit of a buzz and try to gather a bit of momentum. The only real loss would have been Galbraith who missed out yesterday anyway.
I'm really starting to worry about Wellens ability as a manager, he talks a good game, but the team he puts out & the way we play are a million miles from what says we will do. When & if he makes it to January he needs to sort out the shambles of a defence. He has not improved us defensively from last season at all, in fact we look even worse. We simply have to tighten up at the back against the top sides & make us hard to beat, at the minute we are hopeless defensively, & teams know it. Centre half & left back required in January. I'd give my right arm for a Rob Jones right now.
