Today’s team:
-
Bench is just so weak .. hopefully incomings will help
-
Surprised Ennis starts, but if he is fit enough then I am happy with that..
-
Could do with 3/4 new better players then the ones in the team could be on the bench
-
No Bingham fingers crossed it means we have someone better coming in

Have a little patience eh.? If the reports are true - and who is to say they aren’t - then we should be getting reinforcements soon..
There is no need to repeatedly say the squad/bench isn’t good enough.
Not looking to have a pop - I agree we need strengthening.
-
Water off a ducks IDM I don’t take anything personal. So no problem
-

If we haven’t got players better than Bingham on our list then we are in trouble.
-
None intended.. we have our current best 4 attack minded players starting today so let’s hope they can create something.

bolton 2 burton 0

bolton 2 burton 0
Now 2-1!
-
We are second best again I am afraid.
-
Are we competing though.?
-
Our midfield offer nothing .. they are passing through us time after time
-
We are second best again I am afraid.
We are playing the 2nd team in the league and have won only once in 10 games
It beggers belife as to what your expecting.
A draw would be a good result. I just hope we can stay in the game for as long as possible, compete and nick a goal
-
We’re playing too deep for me. Whiteman and Sheaf are virtually part of the defensive line leaving too big a gap between them and the forward players.
Having said that. We have come more into it these last 5 minutes
-
The three behind the striker should be helping in there when we are defending.

bolton 2 burton 0
Now 2-1!
2-2!

Hanging on for a draw at home is not what I expect, no. Very suprsised thats the standards you expect also. It won't be what the board expect.
-
and Burton don't give goals away easy Fleetwood 1 sunderland 0 - looked a dodgy penalty after about 12 head tennis headers in the box.
-
Goal!
-
1-0. Reece James!
-
Get in!!
1-0 (James)

I don’t expect us to hang on for a draw. But given the comparative recent form of both sides today then we may need to compete for the draw..
But a win is better.!!

Well worked goal from rovers.
-
Well done Donny !

If we had the same squad as last season then no I wouldn't, however DM has been left with a complete rebuild of the squad for now and the future after DM destroyed it after last season

Good half from Rovers against a decent Oxford side. Passing is better than recent games and defending is excellent. Great move for the goal

As it stands, 17 points to make up in 22 games (NOT including the one they bottled) to survive - a big ask.

Makes a change from reading that “we are second best” and “midfield offering nothing.”
More in the second half, Scooter!
-
Great start to the New Year for Rovers, long may it continue. Good score against a good Oxford side.
-
For the first 25 minutes they weren’t .. grown into the game more though and maybe now a bit of belief is setting in. Prior to the goal we were too lightweight especially in the tackle. Fingers crossed for a continuation of the better work

Bolton are a man down now too
-
How's Copps doing? Asking as he is both due a goal and some suggested he was fairly absent last game.
-
We still playing ok?
-
62% possession to Oxford!
-
Oxford thought they scored but we cleared it off the line then had a good counter attack down the other end. Entertaining game
Taylor is off for Watters
-
62% possession to Oxford!
Phew!
-
ROVERS SUB | Max Watters comes on in place of Jon Taylor.
-
How are we doing though.?
-
Bench is just so weak .. hopefully incomings will help
In one way i quite like that bench. It shows we are willing to blood these young kids. I've like it even more in Blaney was included instead of Daniels. :unsure:
-

Just been subbed for Gomes
-
ROVERS SUB | James Coppinger is replaced by Madger Gomes.
-
It'll be interesting to see how Watters plays now. This is a major opportunity for him.
-
If he gets sight of the ball maybe..
-

Not great then?

Not done bad. Probably more to rest him
-
This game is really open. Watters is playing well and been positive
-
Think it’s about getting more pace on as they are set out very attacking and are best chance now is in behind
-

Three breaks down the right so far. One led to a good cross into the box, one led to a shot at goal but it was a weak effort, third he was fouled and brought down just outside box
-
Bottom 3 are losing. Always good

10 points clear of the bottom 3, 7 points off top 6 with 1/2/3 games in hand over those above, you might wanna look the other way!
-
Safety first for me.
-
hang on lads , or better still get another goal on the counter
-
34% possesion suggests DM with a more cautious approach today?

4 shots to 20

Marquis on the bench for Pompey, things are not working for him down South, should have stayed at Rovers, grass is not always greener on t'other side.

His wife happy in that neck of the woods, and his bank account is happy too.

remember last season they rested about 6 players (it looked like they were doing us a favour pre-match) against Rovers late on and were the better team (from memory) Rovers probably drew ... green shots grown into grass ??
-
7min added?

7 minutes injury time
Bugger. We know what this means!

7 minutes injury time
WTF.? Has there been a bad injury.?

Is John happy? and is it furthering his football career?
-
lots of equaliser gone in - in the division Peterbru losing :crying: :crying: :crying: (crocodile style)o
-
only a couple of minutes- hold on
-
Keep the ball away from Ruffels :chair:
-
FT 1-0!!
-
Game over. Get in...
-
Great win, move on to Saturday.
-
6 points from the last 9. Not bad, eh?
-
Talk about backs to the wall.
-
Excellent.! To be honest I didn’t expect that and looking at those stats that is a big win.
DM will be delighted..
-

Tuesday maybe..
-
well Done lads PvO wrecked (again) , but excellent result :scarf:
-
Talk about backs to the wall.
You don't get bonus points for style 😉
-
Wright, Anderson & Sheaf all excellent today.
-
DM will be delighted..
Me too!
-
Defence is the best part of the team plus two in midfield it’s obvious where players are required come on CEO get Brexit apology Signings done
-
Great performance there a good team
-
Up a couple of places Shrews and Sunderland draws
-
5 points behind peterbru (managerless tomorrow) with 3 games in hand
5 points off the playoffs but in 15th position yes it is madness
-
Up a couple of places Shrews and Sunderland draws
correction still a point behind both
-
The sort of 1-0 win that we needed 💪
-
Only 3 teams above us have recorded a win in their last game
-
I thought we played well today, lots of much better performances than Sunday.
Sheaf was very good,
Whiteman still a bit off it
But they’re a very good side, so it’s a great result
-
Brilliant result and a clean sheet, rode our luck by the sounds of it but it’s a refreshing change.
Hopefully we can kick on a bit now.
-
My view. Conceeded lots of possession towards the end but not really troubled. Lots of passing around the edge of our area but then just a ball crossed in hopefully.
-
Great result today and one I wasn’t expecting after the Sunderland game.
Onwards and upwards
COYR

I could only spare the time to go to one of our three festive fixtures, and I live closer to Peterborough than Doncaster.
I went to the Sunderland game..!
Delighted with 6 points from 9, two clean sheets and a 5-2 aggregate score, from 3 tough looking fixtures..
