Bradford V TLOD

[Spud]

Thing with Tomlin is he needs to be in a good head space to be productive. All the talk preseason looked looked like he was.

This could send his season south. Hope we get a result and he gets his shit together

Was chatting to some Walsall fans a couple of weeks ago, they've heard all the noises from him on signing for them. They did say he'll produce moments you'll never forget but then also go missing for games on end. They were smiling as they wished us good luck with him....

Stupid from Tomlin, but that's a referee determined to send somebody off after cocking one up earlier.

[belton rover]

I think it was a sound away performance until that embarrassment.

[Barmby Rover]

Tell him to go home and not bother turning up again. Rovers can do without players like that.

[goalkick]

Hope this is not an indication of what’s to come this season. Are we expecting to much ?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

He was stupid but the referee missed the Bradford player stand on Tomlins foot.

He didn't stand on his foot. Tomlin behaved like a d**khead. Full stop.

He absolutely did, mate sent a video but I can't post it.

Yes, he did stand on his foot...deliberately.  Their lad knew what he was doing but his theatrics made it look worse but, I can understand why he wanted to highlight it to the ref....ironically the ref was stood too close to him to see it.

hmmm, not sure what to think now, that is a card offence by the Bradford player - if I was GMC I would be in the refs office and show him that.

And unfortunately his "assistant"  decided not to see it even though he had a clear view of it.

Ravenhill taken off. A smart move.

not so much a smart move as a stupid move to start him ... 

we are very lucky we have a scottish ref making his debut in England and the ref doesnt want an albatross around his neck .. yet !!

so much for my theory i was sat downstairs watching the text on sky having lunch and that came up

a "tomlin order" !!! to be sent off ffs

[PDX_Rover]

Yes, the Bradford player stands on his foot, but you don’t go down like that. All you can say is the lad had a rush of blood and was incredibly stupid.

He needs to come out an make an apology to Rovers fans.

[normal rules]

Pushing the ball away and the. Kicking the ball away probably deserved two yellows of their own.
This is not what we want when trying to rebuild.

[Scooter]

I can’t believe what I have seen. Yellow card for kicking the ball away - fair enough. Then to instantly do it again before that ridiculous simulation.
He left the ref no choice
Does he not want to play for us??

what's his catching like?

[Metalmicky]

But if he doesn't sta d on his foot and punch him, he doesn't go down and we still have 11. Still too much theatrics for my liking though

Can’t fault the ref having seen that.  It’s a second yellow anyway for immediately kicking the ball away having already been carded.

What a stupid Kitson.. 

He’s got a lot of making up to do.

The Bradford crowd throwing items at goalkeeper Mitchell now.

Still too much theatrics for my liking though

Roll on the Women’s European Championship Final tomorrow…you won’t see anything resembling Tomlin’s reaction in that game. Thoroughly disgraceful.

[glosterred]

58' CLOSE! Clayton's corner is headed towards goal by Olowu and somehow kept out by Harry Lewis.

[jmt23]

I think he knew he had pushed it too far and lost his head, then a Bradford player clearly stamps on him, and he see’s that as an opportunity to try and confuse the ref.

[PDX_Rover]

We’re showing some fight. Good to see. I fancy us.

[RobTheRover]

Proud of these lads who have stayed on the pitch. Doin all they can here.

Pull the players off.

[Barmby Rover]

They are throwing bits of paper, hardly a danger.

Where are those One Call women from a few seasons ago, when you need them.?

[PDX_Rover]

Proud of these lads who have stayed on the pitch. Doin all they can here.

We have some toughness and resilience this season. Good to see.

How has Angol not been booked?

BBC says Smallwood just hit the post ??

I fail to see how offering the players sexual gratification will help the situation.
