Someone has to start the thread
-
Think it will be a tougher game than we think with the heat, just hopefully a better performance than the last 3 games with a win to match
-
So the best eleven we have available start with Agard and the crèche on the bench

Good to see big Tom back in the side
-
Wimbledon been lining up 3-5-2 in recent games
-

Who did you expect to be on the bench?

Big babies Andrews and Long!!
Fingers crossed for big Tom. Hard to predict how the game will go in this heat but hope they can muster some fluidity in our play. At least we shouldn't be lumping it up for the big man.
Would love to see a Rowe blockbuster today and Miller carrying on his scoring habit.
-
We’ve managed 4 points from the first 2 and I don’t know how so anything from today would be nice as well!
Hope we have a plan rather than try and stop theirs. Can we make it past HT without making a sub or changing formation?
-
Come on rovers we need a big performance here to get are season up and running , performance wise
-

The same young men that are there that’s apart from Jones Andrews and Long we signed the others for the future and to put out on loan but they are the only ones available for the bench. I wonder if Seaman is on his way or a loan.
When and if Molyneux and Close are ready we should look a bit better.
-
First yellow comes early........
-
To be fair to tomlin he is looking a class above so far today
-
He did in preseason as well if that counts
-
Wombles on top, it depends who scores first as to the final result here I reckon.
-
DFP saying....
14 CLOSE!
Maxwell’s cross-cum-shot drifts just wide of the far post.
Fairly confident start by Rovers, this. They’re seeing plenty of the ball.
-
Wimbledon have had several chances since then, mind.
-
We seem to have a lot of the ball but just not a lot happening with it. Tight game
-
30) OFF THE POST. Lee Tomlin curls a free kick over the wall and strikes the woodwork
-
Rovers getting better by the sounds of it.
-
Enjoying this so far, Biggins fires over from 30 yards
-
Better performance. Tomlin has been class.
-
We need to score, we can all see and hear what will happen here!!!
-
Biggins looking confident today, he’s made good forward runs and just hit a strong shot just off target. Good lad.
-
We’re playing a good passing game today, good tactics in the heat. Make Wimbledon do the running about. We do need a goal before the break though.
-
Sounds good. Results will come if we play well regardless of what happens today.
Be great to get a early goal 2nd half now
-
HT 0-0 Much better performance in posession. A bit slow paced but understandable in the conditions. We are getting forward with some nice passing moves. Just lacking a finish.
-
Trouble with BBC text, they miss stuff
45+4 CORNER
More decent build-up play ends with Miller’s shot deflecting behind for a corner.
Shot not recorded on their stats.
Sounds like a good half.
-
We are by far the better side and playing some great football. Tomlin showing his class. Maybe one day we might get a referee who shows a bit of consistency.
-
Really good first half performance. Just lacking the final magic. Fair play to Tomlin as he has been excellent. Overall good team performance so far and great to see Big Tom back. I hope he stays fit and has a long run in the side
-
From DFP
ENCOURAGING SIGNS
That’s the best Rovers have been with the ball so far this season but that final bit of quality has evaded them.
Clayton, Biggins and Tomlin in particular have looked good on the ball.
The build-up has been encouraging but Miller, Rowe and Hurst need to get more involved in the game.
At the other end Mitchell has been alert and made a couple of fairly routine saves. Rovers on top but it’s all square still.

That sounds promising , come on Rovers
-
Anyone else got the Dons commentary this half?
COYR
-
Now is the time for a goal, they have come out fired up and had numerous chances, lets kill that confidence :rtid:
-
55) Huge chance for Rovers. Patient build-up play through Kyle Hurst, a stabbed cross from Harrison Biggins and Tommy Rowe rises at the back post but cannot get the power he needs
-
some key position yellows now, we will have to be careful
-
...
-
...
62) IT'S BEEN RULED OUT
Free kick Rovers
Still goalless
-
Harsh that for them but will take it
-
475 Rovers supporters have made the trip to the capital today as part of a crowd of 6,847
As always, thanks for your support
-
will somebody go in hard with that Asal (dodgy spelling) they are a one man team, but he is very dangerous.
-
I'm watching the game in a bar in Gran Canaria.
Played well, controlled it throughout the first half, 2nd half so far more even. Chances are coming now at both ends.
-
Has the ref only got yellow cards for our lads? They have had far more fouls and not 1 card.
-
About time
-
We have had a few bookings . Is ref over zealous? I
-
Can’t moan with ref for me been ok
-

Don't grumble too much about the ref. he spotted a foul in the build up to their "goal".
-
1:0
-
1-0 Free header for Davison. Saved but follow up scrambled over the line.
-
Time to dig deep
-
Sat back way to much this half playing for a draw and getting what we deserve here I’m afraid
-
Scrappy goal. A shame really. Assal - always rated him. Would love him in our team.
-
Ffs. Been the better team by a country mile. Scruffy goal.
-
Mitchell has unluckily dropped that one. Shame.
-
Ffs. Been the better team by a country mile. Scruffy goal.
Are u watching the game ? We was better first half but they have been much more of an attacking threat this half

It's been pretty even this half. On balance, we've been the better team.
-
2:0
-
2-0
-
we do not deserve that today, but perhaps this is luck evening out
-
Game over. Super sub
-
Balls. That’s torn it.
-
think 1st half good 2nd poor, poor second goal got past maxwell to easy then he decided to jog back, onto the next game now
-
FFS
-
2:1
-
2-1 Rowe with a pile driver.
-
Go on Tommy
-
Oh hang on a moment! Be brilliant to get something from this after playing better
-
87) And what a strike it was from the club captain, smashing the ball from 20 yards and it flew into the far corner
-
Still time to win this.!
-
5 mins injury time
-
Great finish and good strength and determination from Kuleya to set him up.
-
Senny Dieng just equalised for QPR against Sunderland in stoppage time!
-
I'm sorry but Williams will never be a defender as long as his arse points down.
-
At least they have not given up, a big change from last season.
-
2:2
-
Never in doubt.... AGAIN!!
-
FU EASY FOR DENNIS
-
Yeeeesssssss
Williams with his first goal in league ever!
-
Go on boys!
-
I'm sorry but Williams will never be a defender as long as his arse points down.
Yes but what a striker he is!!
-

Quite.
-
90+5) Corner into the box is flicked on by Kieran Agard and Ro-Shaun Williams gets enough on his header to drop the ball into the bottom corner.
-
May be not
-
FT
-
Andrews … should have scored there.
-
Game over. Super sub
Aged well
-

Make a decent striker though.
-
I’ll take that all day long.
-
A good draw. Well done for the fighting spirit!
-
Happy with that. Well played lads.
-
I wonder how many of our fans left before the end … again?
-
No more than we deserved that.
Really good game to watch.
-
well battled at the end well done rovers
-
Some knives have been put back in their sheaths....for now.
Definitely take that. Shows some desire to never give up and if we get rewarded like that, it's good habits.
Things building and perhaps a bit more belief will see us winning more games.
-
Good draw in the end when the squad has more players available we will see the improvement.
-
Great result. Such better mentality to not accept defeat like the whole of last seasons from the lads.
Did anyone watch on ifollow? The dons commentators were deluded. They apparently dominated us all game, we were just sitting back and not showing any intent to attack, and we were being cynical and dirty all game.
Utter nonsense, stats show we had 63% possession, 11 corners to their three, similar number of shots. It always amazes me how deluded commentators can be when they are biased towards a particular team.
My view, we were better first all over them, they were better second. Neither team had much cut through, just they got one that bobbled around and in for their first.
The results from last two league games will go a long way to ensure the lads don't give up until the final minute. To me that's worth more than the extra point today.
-
We like to score very late goals.

I did , he was biased beyond belief, he was sick as a pig at the end though . Great result
-
Some people saying we sat back… utter b*llocks. 379 corners. 107% possession.
Seriously though. Brilliant comeback. Deserved a point and could have won it with that shot from Andrews just wide of the post.
Delighted for Williams. Tommy stepped up. They all put a shift in to pull that one out.
I do like Kuleya. He was good when he played last season. He makes things happen. Very positive player. Tomlin showed some class today. That free kick that hit the post… but his vision and crisp passing. Great.
Onwards. The spirit in this team is immense.
-

All we need now is to learn how to score before the 86th minute :lol:
-
I'm sorry but Williams will never be a defender as long as his arse points down.
Good timing with that :lol: a move to centre forward perhaps?
-
A good all round performance with class from Clayton and Tomlinson and Rowe and high work rate from all of them . Mitchell another good performance .
-
Another game where we’ve picked up a point when for the last couple of seasons we wouldn’t have. Better a point than nothing at all.
Onwards and upwards
