Blackpool make five changes as well but all the players left out are on their bench.
-
Looks like he’s realised already that we can’t play our strongest 11 every game.
-
Would have thought he would have known that anyway? It’d not unreasonable to make the changes he made..
-
Quite surprised and a tad disappointed he's not at least retained some of those left out on the bench. Thought this was an ideal opportunity to get away from the pressure of the league and release the shackles a bit. Maybe, he thinks some players need a mental breather already.
Great chance for some players to show they are worthy of the shirt. COYR.

Think dickos is referering to Grant often saying he's not a believer in resting players and wants to pick the strongest 11 each time.
-

It’s not no,
But before the Scunthorpe game he said he didn’t believe in resting players and would always play his strongest side.
Which he did against scunny, but obviously he’s learning he can’t do that with us at the min
-
Particularly given the game coming up on Saturday where I'm sure GM really would want to field his strongest side ;)
-
How we doing..?
-
Bit of an uncertain start but had 2 good breaks in recent minutes. Not heard Rowe's name mentioned until a penalty shout in the box.
-
Why have we got 3 juniors on the bench when we have 5 first year pro’s?
Extremely questionable!
-
Golden chances missed by Taylor. Good save from keeper then stabbed wide apparently.
-
Alfie May scores. Cracker apparently!
-
The darling boots of May
-
Get in,come on Rovers!
-
Now let’s support him not get on his back.
Well done Alfie
-
Come on!!!! Wouldn't normally miss a game like this but on holiday and listening on iFollow whilst rest of family watching bake off!! Worried about the players missing but hope this team step up & grab a win and get a big team in next round (or Man Utd!).
Come on boys! :clapping:

Matchday experience??

Precisely. Especially as Posh are out of the league cup already..
-
Yeah I agree
I’d always rest players, just pointing out he said he wouldn’t
-
Delighted for Alfie May - scoring is what he needs to add to bring that extra quality on top of his work rate..
-
1-1
-
Bum. Bit of controversy as it looks as though ref was going to send Anderson off for attempting to save the ball going in with his hand... But only given a yellow!
-
Shocking decision! Surely red & penalty or goal? I can't think of a situation where goal AND yellow is appropriate! F*ck*ng clowns reffing in this league, hopefully it won't make too much of a difference unless Anderson gets another yellow! Learn the rules you f*ck*ng idiots!
:suicide:
-
Is that the first time we conceded a goal in first half this season?
-
Jermaine Anderson doing anything...?
-
Jermaine Anderson doing anything...?
Not really
-
Not a lot by the sounds, giving possession away too cheaply and Blackpool coming at us with Spearing being allowed to dominate.
Commentators saying Taylor's had a mare missing 3 good chances to score. Alfie May doing his best to live off scraps but not getting much support.
H/T to regroup.
-
No micky tbh a bit of Dave about him tries stuff but nothing coming off so far.
Taylor looks above average but should have scored, but we need to stop aiming for Alfies head as Blackpool defence are far to tall
-
Their keeper picked up a back pass although it clearly came off Whiteman. Indirect free kick in the box wasted
-
How many people are at the stadium? I saw the picture posted by Rob on facebook and it’s sad to see so many empty seats :(
-
Losing 2-1
-
1:2 apparently
-
1-2 down. :facepalm:
-
Come on you reds... :scarf:
-
Nowt else happening??
-
Slam in the lamb time.
-
Poorest performance of the season so far
-
It’s our reserve team though really. Just shows that beyond the starting 11 we don’t have much more.
-
May deserved man of the match. Mason and Blair were steady. Ben Khemis was lively when he came on. The rest were poor
-
Ah well. Onwards we go, just not in the Columbo Karumba Cup.
-

Really folks were going on about the strength of our bench in the last couple of games. Seems our winning streak will start soon.

Yup, that's where no real investment in the team will get you. It's not like he's given the youth ago today,
That said, given who he's brought in so far I've only been impressed with Kane at this moment.
-
I haven’t been tonight but I bet without Herbie Kane the midfield was no better than last year.
What was the new Anderson like in midfield
How did Paul Taylor, Kiwomya and Beestin play.
-
Wilkes, marquis, butler, coppinger, Kane, marosi, all missing and the majority of their replacements aren’t good enough
-

New Anderson was very poor nothing he tried worked and didn't challenge or went for any 2nd balls.
Taylor had chances but couldn't put them away.
Alex and beestin didn't get into the game to be fair neither got service or options.
Felt for Alfie having to chase after long balls up front but at least he tried
-
We defended too high and didn't learn as the game wore on. When we got into attacking areas, we kept attempting the same through ball which was nearly always cut out by an orange shirt
