Today’s team
COYR
-
Bit surprised Butler isn't captain but no massive shocks there.
Good to see Sims back.
-
Gomes the loose cannon who passing is not good enough not disciplined enough for that position.
Sooner had James there and Okenabirhe on left. Any way let’s see DM a shot it right.
-
Gomes had a great game there last season and I hope he gets back up to speed pronto.
Just looking for an improvement from Tuesday night. Anything after that is a bonus.
-
Gomes was also outstanding a the start of the season before he was injured.
-
The changes are probably about right - Bostock was miles off the pace, Robertson didn’t do much, Fej probably due a rest and after his goal Lokilo didn’t do a lot. I’d probably have kept Lokilo in on the left and had James in midfield rather than Gomes after his stinker on Tuesday but a chance of redemption for him.
I hope Bogle’s not been rushed in like Bostock was, though, and is actually fit to start.
-
Gomes had a great game there last season and I hope he gets back up to speed pronto.

Do you mean for Gomes or the team? Either way, an improvement from Tuesday is a very low bar, I’m hoping for much better personally.
-
Tbf i thought gomes looked brilliant when he came on last Saturday, maybe turn a blind eye to tuesdays shambles
Think we should have started this midfield tuesday night
-
What a great shout to give Wright the armband. To me that's like DM saying.
"You are wanted and needed sunshine - the contract is coming- you are our future."
-
Colonel on the commentary with Robbie
-
Or Corporal, even.
-
I don’t know whether it’s to give him a rest but I think Fey can feel a bit disappointed at being dropped to the bench.
-
Colonel on the commentary with Robbie

Was going to say - that was a quick promotion....

No - he said Colonel first......
-
I think this every time we play against him but Max Power is a great name.
-
Good start by us.
-
Bright start so far including an early shot from Taylor but still some sloppiness - a short corner wasted and Joe Wright just passed very poorly straight into touch.
-
1:0
-
Damn it!!!
-
Poor defending from the corner
-
Sunderland actually put a corner into the box and score from it. Disappointing.
-
All came from a soft free kick awarded against Butler, it was never a free kick
-
God how we will miss Anderson
-
Good start by us.
I think I tempted fate there.
-
And the poor run vs Sunderland continues unfortunately can’t see us getting anything from today
-
game over after 8 minutes!!!
-
Definite foul by butler, he was holding both arms. Poor defending, and the keeper was distracted by the man I front of him.
-
2-0 down now
-
Halliday ... absolutely terrible. Beat all ends up every time in first ten minutes.
-
That’s that f**ked then. Game over.
-
Defense haven't gotten off the bus.
-
game over after 8 minutes!!!
Sorry to say but now at 2 nil yes
-
f**k me.
Far too easy.
-
Dearie me.
-
Bugger
-
Shocking defending!
-
Might as well turn over now lads, tonking incoming
-
Isn’t one of the main reasons that John is in the team is to give us that extra height and physicality? Stood watching as Wyke got in front of him to get that header. Awful defending.
-
This could get a whole lot worse but hope not of course
-
What did I say about the physicality. We never handle Wyke. He just bullies us everytime we come up against him.
-
John just pushed aside like he was a ten year old kid,
-
Seen both goals on Sky Sports. In both cases, we have defenders trying to block their man rather than go for the ball. In the first case from the corner it was James and the second it was John making no attempt to attack the ball.
-
Right, now I'm pissed off.
I've planned my day round this, and were playing just as bad as the last few games.
Sorely missing Whiteman, haven't put in a performance since he left.
-
And the poor run vs Sunderland continues unfortunately can’t see us getting anything from today
I've got 40 to 1 losing HT winning FT but not optimistic lol
-
Big chance there for Bogle.
-
How come Sunderland seem to play Sh#te against every one but us.
-
I’m sorry but John is f**king useless. If he isn’t offering us that extra height at the back what other benefits does he have over James in that position?
-
Right, now I'm pissed off.
I've planned my day round this, and were playing just as bad as the last few games.
Sorely missing Whiteman, haven't put in a performance since he left.
Don’t agree. It’s a real shame we’ve conceded twice because I think we’ve started well.
I’m confident we will score, just not confident we can now score one more than them.
Come on lads!
-
Haliday puts a cross in to absolutely no one, that about sums us up.
-
Big chance there for Bogle.
Very difficult for him to make anything of it, it was behind him rather than ahead where he might have at least been able to stab at it. Particularly given Richards absolutely smashed it at him.
-

I would be happy if we score the same as them.
-
CJ holding back of his leg for 10 mins now
-
Superb tackle there by Brad.
-
Boggle not too happy with Richards
-
We sorely miss Anderson’s leadership and aerial presence. Since he went off after 12 minutes of the Fleetwood game to the same 12 minute point in today’s game, we have conceded 5 goals without him.
-
Boggle not too happy with Richards
The mind boggles.....
-
Lovely cross by James but scuffed wide by Taylor.
-
4 big chances really poor shots though, and Taylor had an hour to take that
-
Butler getting bullied out there, which isn’t something you can say often!
-
If you saw the stats for this game and not the score you might think Rovers looked good. They have made a massive mountain like Everest to climb to get back in the game though.
-
Lovely cross by James but scuffed wide by Taylor.
The ball was slightly behind him and Taylor had to readjust.
-
John Taylor couldnt finish his dinner
-
We’re actually playing pretty well, just defended balls into the box really badly. If we can get one back before half time it’s a different game.
-
Im sorry but Im sick of his negative line ups now. When we win the ball back in our own half we only ever have 1 striker to aim for, Taylor and James are stood within 6 yards of each other. He has his players now and STILL we are setting up to stop other teams and yet here we are.....
-
That's it, stopping following this one
-
f**k me another ball in the box, another goal.
-
Unbelievable !
-
f**king shocking defending
-
:suicide: :suicide: :suicide:
-
Next.
-
3-0. Terrible organisation again. Wyke looked offside, but James was playing him onside from a position where he couldn’t influence the play.
-
Shambles! Absolute shambles
-
This is a weird game. We're not playing that badly but our defense are basically asleep
-
Worst half hour of defending I've seen from us in a long, long time.
If our finishing was better we could have 2 goals ourselves already as well. What a waste.
-
Rovers haven't put in a performance since Whiteman left.
Sorry to say, but without him we've been dreadful and haven't adapted to playing without him.
We'll finish mid table.
-
Pathetic defending. We are going to get embarrassed here. We’ve been rubbish for weeks but some of the results have been masking the performances.
-
No Anderson, no idea?
-
It’s a bit like that Fleetwood game at the KM when we lost 4-0.
-
Shambolic defending,
-
Too easy for them.
Mcgeady too much space, cross to area where wyke is. Nothing clever...
-
Rovers haven't put in a performance since Whiteman left.
Sorry to say, but without him we've been dreadful and haven't adapted to playing without him.

Are you an motivational speaker by any chance.......?
-
May as well get some minutes into Bostock and Simms now, game has gone
-
I can see John coming off at half time, his head has gone
-
How Aiden McGeady is playing in league 1 I’ll never know :suicide:
-
Cam having a mare.
-
Cameron John looks so uncomfortable on the ball. Unbelievable that he keeps getting picked out of position when he clearly isn’t comfortable with it.
-
Its no coincidence that all the goals have come from crosses from the left wing.
-
McGeady always seems to turn into Messi when he plays against us, yet you rarely hear his name mentioned rest of the season. Same with Wyke.
-
Is Amos injured?
-
Do we do passing drills in training?
-
This is a weird game. We're not playing that badly but our defense are basically asleep
It’s probably karma for the game at the Keepmoat where they totally dominated us and we stole a point. I said that night they were the best side I’d seen this season and I’ll stick to that, although Oxford played great football but had a soft centre.
-
Its no coincidence that all the goals have come from crosses from the left wing.
Absolutely. Halliday has been beaten numerous times. If you allow a cross stood up to the back post it's a 50-50 situation for the attacker.
Sunderland have a front three that could easily play in the league above. It tells me defensively we should be concerned if some of them could step up.
Much reminds me of sod teams, played ok but opposition's quality has undone us.
-
McGeady always seems to turn into Messi when he plays against us, yet you rarely hear his name mentioned rest of the season. Same with Wyke.
Wyke had scored 20 up until today , i think we want to help him get to the 30 mark by the end of the game.

Can only hope they take him off at halftime and don't bring anyone one on
-
We have been better than the scores says, but the defending is non existent...I can’t remember defending as bad as this, not even in our worst year
-
Gomes and John off at half time for Bostock and Simms at a minimum, get James back in at left back... He’s had his fun half a season experiment playing all over the pitch
-
No Anderson, no idea?
Im afraid it's no Whiteman, no idea.
-
Rovers haven't put in a performance since Whiteman left.
Sorry to say, but without him we've been dreadful and haven't adapted to playing without him.

Well..........could be worse I suppose......... if that back four is supposed to be the best in the league ( some peoples opinion) .... my jimmys a bloater
We don’t seem to be able to score from set pieces and we are poor at defending them....we actually don’t look like we should be 3 nil down,
I agree about John,....he to me is a centre back, but if DM sees him as an attacking left back who are we to judge....
All in all we are found out!
-

He's not been playing much until Johnson came in.
-
The scoreline is not his fault and hes not the only one today but, what a lot of you and the manager see in Jon Taylor will forever baffle me. He is absolutely dire! Never offers anything ever. Clueless in possession, never looks to find space, runs into dead ends, when he gets it he loses it, never makes the right decision. To think he fobbed Rotherham off to play Championship football and he never got a club sums it up.
-
That half was a shocker, out played in midfield again and the defence a shambles
-

Who thinks Halliday, Butler, Wright & John are the best back 4 in the division? You wouldn’t find a single poster on here who wouldn’t have Anderson in our best back 4, and you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who would have John in there.
-
He needs to bring okenabirhie on for John, play two up front and drop James to left back then bring sims on for gomes.
Taylor Richards is the only player who can take any credit from that shower
-
Wright and Butler are doing ok. Unfortunately they have nobody on either side of them.
-
Rovers haven't put in a performance since Whiteman left.
Sorry to say, but without him we've been dreadful and haven't adapted to playing without him.

Our set plays are absolutely dreadful. How many have we scored from this season?
Agreed, it’s really poor. John Taylor seems to me a little like Sterling in that he never quite seems to strike a ball cleanly, so if he’s our best option then god knows how poor the rest are. To say we often have 4 centre halves in the team to attack set pieces it’s a really poor record.
-
Wright and Butler are doing ok. Unfortunately they have nobody on either side of them.
I think Wright was at fault for the first goal, similar to John for the second he was far too passive.
-
4:3..............we're going to win 4:3
-
Not going to defend the indefensible but I just go back to our first corner. Not to put the ball into the box was criminal.
We actually got into some good positions but were woeful in the box. How Richards missed by that far even with his right foot was hard to believe. Taylor shooting boots missing.
Sunderland kept it simple. Quality balls in the box to an invisible 6' 4“ centre forward.
Some of our play has been better but OMG, schoolboy defending.
-

That is your opinion agreed, but your contract thread speaks volumes about yourself. Your just another negative poster who loves a dig at the club

-
Madger off
Bostock on
Let’s see if that makes any difference
-
Charlie Wyke is a proper unit and it must be like trying to stop a tank but how come he doesn't get a hatrick every week? What happened to our cunning planning and team selections, surely the McGeady/Wyke threat was foreseen?
-
We have been outplayed midfield for the last four games .fortunately two of them we came out ok.this game is proving a point.

I don't need to, merely posted and completely forgot the crisis we are in. :crying: :crying:
-
Easy! I love it when we lure a side like this. 3-6?
-
Time to just go all out attack, we can create chances, just got to try and keep them to single figures at this point
-
I think the defending of that last goal was the worst I’ve seen in a long time. Wright just left Wyke totally unattended ... Sunday league stuff.
-
The ref feels sorry for us. :laugh:
-
At least Sims is getting minutes in the bank
-
Pen for handball.
Clear as day.
Wasn’t the commentator watching.
-
Taylor missed penalty
Come on Donny
-
Taylor a penalty taker ????? Never !!! He’s got the weakest shot of any member of the team
-
DM ought to show a video of this match to our wide men on how to put a decent early ball into the box
-
Surely Bogle should have taken that pen
-
Taylor isn’t a finisher.
Shocking pen.
-
I think our defenders are taking social distancing a bit too far.
-
This is the type of game that can de-rail us, the cracks can quickly begin to show, players start arguing, pointing fingers......
Come on lads, we can be better than this
-
As soon as Taylor picked the ball up for the pen I knew he’d miss it
-
Anybody but Taylor
-
What on earth is going on?!
It’s like 11 blokes have turned up for a match with no plan and no idea about the opposition.
4 goals from the exact same source and Taylor taking penalties?!
Are we collapsing here or is it just one of those days?

Two of those days this week.
-
My case stands rested. How the guy gets a shirt is beyond me
-
championship feeling a long way off now :(
-
Massively disjointed, it's like the players don't know what to do.
But it's been the same for a while now. Just even worse on Tuesday and today.
-
That’s not wykes goal
That’s a John own goal, balcombe was just going to catch it and he headed it in
-
championship feeling a long way off now :(
I did feel that some fans were getting a bit in front of themselves last week.

The header was on target so it is Wykes goal.
-
I posted earlier on in this thread that Taylor reminds me of Sterling in that he can’t strike a ball cleanly. Turns out he takes a penalty like him as well. I’d rather have had any other player take that...well, maybe not Cameron John.
The defence for the 4th goal was an utter disgrace. Surely at half time Moore tore into them about the space MacGeady was getting out wide and the space Wyke had in the box. And yet seconds after we’re gifted a way back into the game the exact same thing happened again. Pathetic and shameful.
-
When Mickey Walker commentated on our games he got slated for saying “Doncaster”.
How come Rob Jones is getting away with it?
-
U tell rob jones not to say it hahaha

unfortunately NickDRFC 's analysis seems very accurate.

Save his legs for a game that is worth playing in

Moore always takes Richards off.

That’s not wykes goal
That’s a John own goal, balcombe was just going to catch it and he headed it in
The header was on target so it is Wykes goal.
It was but it was in the goalkeepers hands,
No surprise Moore took him straight off, he’s a shambles
-
That’s 7 goals conceded in last 2 games and there’s still 15-20 left in this one

Agree that Cam has had a shocker today.
-
Sunderland are probably the only team in the league who can put decent crosses in and have someone so consistent and strong in the air to put them away- our defence has been found out but fortunately they won’t have to put up with this every week (although championship would be a different matter). There is no need to despair, we are competing ok in the rest of the pitch and hopefully our new recruits and returning players will only get stronger
-
I hope McGeady remembers to take Halliday out of his pocket after the game. We will need him next week.
-
Hull loosing as well
-
Richards, Bostock, Simms and Lokilo have been good. The rest and in particular the centre backs ...utter garbage
-

-
Another pen for us.
-
No way would I have had Lokilo taking a pen
-
Another pen missed :boxing: :boxing: :boxing:
-
I bet Lincoln are enjoying our penalties today
-
Hull loosing as well
Losing*
-
Another pen missed. Appalling, are they taking the piss? Why don’t we have our penalty takers mapped out, Lokilo only took that because he won it.
-
Well that just about sums us up today.
-
That was worse than Taylor’s pen.
-
We could and maybe should have had 4+ goals ourselves. Terrible defensively today but overall play has been alright.
-
Again Bogle should take the penalty. He is the only striker on the pitch
-
Everything that has happened today has screamed lack of leadership.
What is going on?
No defensive organisation or communication, and two dreadful penalties from players who shouldn’t have been taking them.
If someone had grabbed this team by the scruff of the neck today we might have come away with some kind of result!
-
That is one of the worst penalties I've ever seen.
-
Why isn’t bogle taking pens , a chance to get him off the mark , he should be demanding that ball
-
Penalties ... Smith would be my choice to take them. He has an ability to place a ball as well as being a powerful hitter of the ball.
-
What about Sims?
-
Piss poor preparation, we don’t even know who’s going to take penalties, although we played poorly the coaching and organisation needs looking at
-
As bad as we have been at defending today we could easily have had a point from this game.
-
Richards, Bostock, Simms and Lokilo have been good. The rest and in particular the centre backs ...utter garbage
Bogle hasn't been too bad.
-
Full time
-
We don’t really deserve to lose this,
Terrible defending has cost us
But we’ve played well in the second half
-
I didn’t like the way that Lokilo carried the ball to the spot with the intention of taking the penalty. Has DM not predetermined who should take them? You would hope so.
-
That’s 7 goals conceded in last 2 games and there’s still 15-20 left in this one
7 goals since Anderson went off
-
Halliday having a shocker
-
Poor today. Move on quickly.
-
Hull and Charlton both losing is good though.

-

Exactly, this isn’t the playground. You won the penalty - great, you’ve done your job, now let the one who’s most likely to score it actually take it.
-
It seems we’ve overlooked the fact we haven’t got a designated penalty taker, which in that case you have to give it to the best striker of the ball, both Taylor and Lokilo are not good strikers of the ball, awful display, awful decision making, needs sorting pronto, esprcially the balls coming into the box
-
Shouldn’t this thread be in “ off topic” ..... not much football to talk about....
-
Would have thought James or Hobson would have been good pen takers
-
I had to walk away into the other room for ten minutes so missed Lokilo’s penalty but why on earth did he take it?!
Anyway I thought we played better than we did on Tuesday night and actually could have got a result today so not all doom and gloom.
It’s just incredible that we could concede 4 virtually identical goals.
-
That I think was as bad as bad can be, well I hope so at least. Anyway, back at it on Tuesday/Wednesday we can only hope for better.
Onwards and upwards
COYR

I'm putting it down to the weather, we don't like the cold!!

The manager should have decided before the game who is the penalty taker.

Charlton and Hull and Fleetwood lost....... everyone should chill

More like Hobson's choice :thumbsup:
-
We did deserve to lose, the defending was as poor as I have seen in 35 years - and just think of what I've seen in those times. We have lost are mojo and it isn't just losing Whiteman - we look devoid of confidence, hanging on from the first minute, unable to pass the ball.... FS. I need a time away from this to chill...every year they sucker me in.
I wouldn't mind if Sunderland were good, they had one decent player - with the same skill and aim every time - either put two players on him, or take him out.

It seems we’ve overlooked the fact we haven’t got a designated penalty taker, which in that case you have to give it to the best striker of the ball, both Taylor and Lokilo are not good strikers of the ball, awful display, awful decision making, needs sorting pronto, esprcially the balls coming into the box
The manager should have decided before the game who is the penalty taker.
How do we know he didn’t and they were the ones selected?

Because Moore isn’t stupid

Precisely, we don’t.
Filo said we don’t have a designated penalty taker.
You should have been jumping on his post, not mine.

Based on today the starting line up for Accrington should be in my opinion:
Balcombe
Halliday RB
Wright CH
Anderson (if available, if not Butler) CH
James LB
Bostock CDM
Sims LM
Richards CAM
Smith CM
Lokilo RM
Bogle CF

Not bad but surely Fej in ahead of Lokilo.

Maybe missed Anderson’s leadership.did not seem as though we had a designated penalty taker. Worst penalties I can remember seeing for a long time.very half hearted.but onwards and upwards we are still in a great position in the table.we can’t be that bad.
-
On reflection I don't believe we would have lost that game if Anderson had played. The team didnt play too badly but we just couldn't handle McGeady & Wyke. Big Tom would've had Wyke under control & he definitely wouldnt have had the space he was allowed. Anderson is so important to us and it has clearly shown over these past two games.

Based on today I would keep Lokilo in, I thought he caused them alot of problems when he came on.

Bizarrely that's the best we've played with the ball in ages. Without the ball the worst we've played in years. Wright and Butler couldn't handle Wyke when he played for Bradford so I feared the worst before kick off and he didn't have McGeady landing balls on his head then.
-
I bet Fej was gutted sat on the bench and two penalties. If we had scored our first penalty we wouldn't have conceded the 4th goal a minute later.
3-2 for a bit and they might have panicked.

You’ve got me doubting myself but I thunk it was already 4-1 before we got the first pen
-
You might be right Filo. I thought on the BBC site we missed a pen and they scored very quickly after but I might have got it wrong. At least I won't bother with the extended highlights to check.☹️

We scored on 53mins, they scored on 54mins, we got the pen on 57mins

Filo, that is the truth though isn’t it.
Why don’t you take kindly to people pointing out stuff you have said.
You seem to think it is ok when you decide to have a pop at my posts.

Chers Filo, I was checking on BBC at the time in between other jobs so was mistaken. That sure was a hectic few minutes though.

Because I never said we didn’t have a designated penalty taker, you are fond of using word play when it suits you, what i did say was It SEEMS we’ve overlooked the fact we haven’t got a designated penalty taker
The key word is SEEMS, that in the context of the post is me expressing an opinion, but true to form when someone challenges your post you go all defensive and blame some one else

That is ridiculous and you know it.
You were clearly having a go at Moore for not having designated penalty taker but in true political fashion you are twisting the words to suit your argument.
I simply pointed out that the manager should have decided before the game who the penalty taker would be.
I fail to see why you object to that.
You really dont like anyone to point out something that you have written might just be wrong.
Bring on the cavalry now.
-
No cavalry needed, I can argue my own points, you have a habit of twisting things and blaming some one else when one of your posts is pulled up
-
LoL.
Put the toys back in your pram.
It is you who got the tits on about me pulling you up on you suggesting we didn’t have a designated penalty taker.
Anyone can see that.
