Stat attack: We've only lost once to Southend in the last 20 years or so, back in 2007 at Roots Hall, and we haven't lost at home to the Shrimpers since 1989.

Pointless hoof ball so far, the only time we have played it on the floor we looked dangerous so I can't understand the long punts

We should play our game, not the oppositions game. We are getting chances, they need to be taken.

DVR, that's not good. From the BBC commentary I'm getting Williams doesn't seem to be much in the game. Would that be your take? Lack of service perhaps?

PD will have to stick a rocket up a few bums to get the team firing, or it could be a case of two more home points dropped, against an opposition we should be beating.

Williams is getting beaten up. The ref is giving him no protection at all

Movement is terrible. Feels like a pre-season friendly. Need to step up as a team.

Diabolical so far. No imagination or creativity on show from Rovers. Constant passing back to the GK.

Outplayed over and over again in the air and on the ground.

Passing accuracy terrible.

Bad game we need to step it up in 2nd half. Need to stop long ball pass and move is our game witg one up front

The midfield, Wellens especially, are getting closed down very quickly.

The ref has had a few opportunities to get the yellow card out  but has declined every option.

Southend were apparently poor last Saturday against Wallsall. Obviously, PD hasn't looked how Wallsall played, and tried to exploit the weaknesses in Southend's game. Instead Rovers are being made to look very ordinary. Perhaps changes need to be made at half time to liven things up.

Have we scored from open play yet?

Williams is getting jack shyt of the Rovers players. But plenty of stick from them.

Southend have changed their formation to that game,we need to do the same!

Williams has had nothing but hopeless punts played forward, we want too much time on the ball, not closing them down either, we look as though we have upped the pace so far shame it took 47 mins
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Southend United
Post by: les@donr on August 19, 2015, 09:03:29 pm
Hope Chaplow can make a difference in midfield. No shots on target after 56 mins is an embarrassment.

Poor first half, like a pre season friendly with no spark at all.

Second half a bit better as we battled more and created more. Poor games from forester and Copps, one or two decent saves from the German. 

Williams got little protection from the ref who also had a shocker - too many free kicks awarded for what looked like good tackles - for both sides.

Curtis was better, but that's not difficult.

Not good, but not a defeat.
