Good to see Taylor on the bench, and that we have players who can add something rather than being there for the sake of it.

Good match. I'm enjoying it. Both teams trying hard. We've rode our luck a little, and amazing goaline blocks from Knoyle and Mitchell in one scramble. Ro-Shaun's distribution needs to go up a notch. Mansfield are lively but this is here to be won.

Midfield needs to step up, keep possession better and feed the front line, Rovers are capable of better than that first 45 minutes, good job we got an extra couple!
Title: Re: TLOD vs Stags
Post by: StocksArmy on September 03, 2022, 04:09:10 pm
Our midfield is really weak. We need an engine. Im happy with Clayton but Biggins doesnt compliment him well enough in my opinion. Feels like we need another body in the to shore it up. 2nd balls are the most important and id love to see the stats on how many we win in that area.

“Found out” how? It’s football. Their keeper makes a world class save. We hit the post. The ref dreams up a penalty for them and now Mansfield are being absolutely pathetic.

Mansfield have played well, no doubt… Two very good goals.

Title: Re: TLOD vs Stags
Post by: Barmby Rover on September 03, 2022, 04:46:07 pm
When Tomlin starts cheating it sets up the ref to look at Rovers and sees what is probably not there. Would he have given that one if it hadn't been for Tomlin a couple of minutes before? Maybe not. Then ,of course, Mansfield can play that sort of game and get away with it, disrupting the game's flow and makes it more difficult for Rovers to come back.

Post by: PDX_Rover on September 03, 2022, 05:15:48 pm
Well, we lost. To be fair, Mansfield played very well, but another day we get more from that. Credit to them. The first goal, you can’t legislate for those… great strike.

Rovers were much the better team for the first 30-35 minutes, then Mansfield had a period on top. Stunning save to deny Miller. Tomlin took the penalty well.

Second half was scrappy. Hurst unlucky with a great effort off the post. Mansfield got a decent second goal which really should have been prevented. And then Mansfield just resorted to disrupting the game. I can’t really complain too much because we’ve done some great “game management” ourselves, but some of the Mansfield antics were really pathetic.

The referee then decided it was all about him. Made some shocking decision and non-decisions, and killed the game with one of the worst penalty decisions I think I’ve ever seen. If that’s a penalty then we may as well all give football up as a lost cause.


There was an incident just after Tomlin was booked where McLaughlin goes down, simulating injury, insinuating Rowe had struck him. Right in front of the lino. Embarrassing. Should have been a booking.

He also bottled sending Lapslie off. Serial offender and a clear second yellow after he clattered Maxwell.

I’m not really upset that we lost tbh. It’s the inconsistency of officiating, and the naïveté that gets me.

This Rovers side are transformed from last season. The run had to end somewhere but we will bounce back from it.

It just stings a bit when you get officiating that get so many basics wrong, and are completely inconsistent.

Next!
