Scrappy and a bit sloppy. We’ve had a few nervy moments in our own box, seems we still have a n issue with set pieces.

Commentators have started worse than ya though. They had a shot which was closed down and deflected out for a corner “Doncaster are just letting them get their shots away”...

We could do with some attacking width down the left..

Not seen much of Kiwomya, but he looks a bit limited to me... Not sure why he is not playing off the last man to use his pace.  We're trying to play possession football, but aren't good enough and invariably loose it...

Is that why we have the greater possession, i.e. 60/40%. (BBC).

It is exactly that....although 60% of that possession has been between the back 4....

Matty Blair having a bit of a mare. McCulloch a bit sloppy. Tommy Rowe not performing. Our build up play is way too slow and Marquis is having to do the job of two players. Copps being closely marked but looking dangerous. Bradford better team first half.

Anyone bored? We look like a team heading for relegation at this rate. No excitement, can’t create

Is this the way forward for the club? Look like we are standing still to me at the moment

Fair assessment that - I would add that Houghton has been largely anonymous....

Looks like Fergie is insisting on playing a passing game on that quagmire of a pitch. Bradford marking up and pressing well to not give us much time on the ball. Mason and Mccullough particularly poor on the ball and with their passing.

Yeah, Houghton pretty anonymous. I'd take Luke off, move Houghton into that position and get Beestin on.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford
Post by: IDM on March 19, 2018, 08:39:49 pm
I don’t think it’s that bad.. we need more width and creativity going forward.. we have had half chances but Bradford have threatened more..
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford
Post by: IDM on March 19, 2018, 08:40:11 pm
Not s bad call for Beestin to come on..
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford
Post by: southwestexile on March 19, 2018, 08:41:30 pm
Kiwomya anonymous. Stick Williams on to lean on the back 4
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford
Post by: DearneValleyRover on March 19, 2018, 08:42:10 pm
I would take Rowe off move Kiwomya to left midfield to get him into the game and put Williams on.

Again, I agree... we need a threat and need to put them under pressure a bit... It's all too easy.  I'd even consider taking Kiwomya off and putting May on..
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford
Post by: PDX_Rover on March 19, 2018, 08:43:34 pm
To be fair Kiwomya has had no service. The number of balls that have been cut out...
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford
Post by: hoolahoop on March 19, 2018, 08:48:59 pm
I would put May on just to run that defence around a bit . Crowd seem quiet. :(

Not a minute into the second half and they’ve put a back post cross in. Definite tactic

I tell you what. Beestin is going to be a very important player for us. We looked a different proposition second half after he came on. Intelligent player. Bags of energy. Mason on the right did well.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Bradford

Glad marquis got 2 good goals felt sorry for Alex but it was the right change to make. Thought Luke was so so, tried to to do to much instead of playing it simple.

1st half terrible second half only better when changers were made and goals scored.

Just to win every game till end of season and we can make the playoffs
