Danny Schofield makes three changes to his side for the Boxing Day game.
(https://i.imgur.com/YgdTTWL.jpg)
-
Tommy Rowe injured or ill ??
-
No Williams?
-
No Williams?
On the bench were he deserves to be.
-
So Anderson, Long, and Taylor in; Williams and Rowe out. Who was the other one from the win at Newport?
-
No Williams?
He’s on the bench and Knoyle will be playing right of the three as I believe we will play that with Long on the left.
-
So Anderson, Long, and Taylor in; Williams and Rowe out. Who was the other one from the win at Newport?
Woltman?
-
I've got it. It was Woltman. Not even on the bench today.
-
Sat watching at home with another sickness bug. Started quite well.
-
Good start by Rovers. No one to put the chances away though.
Their commentary keeps talking about ‘Rovers’ but means Tranmere - confusing.

We're all Rovers aren't we....?
-
Taylor coming off injured. Hurst on.
-
Taylor was plain unlucky with that
-
He's jinxed!
-
Ref playing a blinder … Not!!
-
Really good first 2 minutes. Non affair since for both teams.
-
I think Mitchell has had 90% possession in this game. Unbelievably slow in distribution and thinking.
-
Tranmere getting on top now.
-
This is just dreadful to watch. We haven’t got a clue.
-
You've got to be a real purist to watch this.
-
Gaz Roberts on the Tranmere commentary and very complimentary to us as a club. He can't understand why we keep slowing the play down especially Mitchell......He's not the only one
-
Piss
-
1-0 Tranmere
-
What an awful side we have become.
-
:huh:

They think it's all Rovers.... Hurst on... :huh:
-
1-0 to Tranmere. We look like we had far too much turkey and booze yesterday. And yes, I know they were in training yesterday but we look so lethargic.
-
Infuriating this is. Even Tranmere fans taking the piss out of our back passes. Deserve to be losing. Dreadful tactics from us.
-
This is shocking, terrible first half of football
-
Another shite half of football
-
Some Rovers ‘fans’ booing at HT. That first half was on par with our poorest performances so far this season. Running out of ways to describe just how bad we’ve become.
-
And you can't blame Williams!
-
If I was manager I'd continue with the tactic of playing the ball backwards to Mitchell and for him to boot the ball within 20 yards of Hurst to compete in the air. Just because it fails 9,999 times of of 10,000 doesn't mean it won't ever work
-
Clayton off for Molinux surly we are far to slow with him in that midfield, why play 3 holding midfielders ?
-
Back, sideways, back, Anderson pump it forward to Miller, shite.
Where's the urgency? Where's the midfield? Got exactly what we deserve so far
-
Well that was utter tripe.
-
Are we all looking forward to Thursday eve?
-
Clayton off for Molinux surly we are far to slow with him in that midfield, why play 3 holding midfielders ?
I'd actually go with Seaman to be subbed. Play with 4 at the back, 3 in central midfield with 2 wide players supporting Miller.
Not entirely sure why he continues with a FIVE at the back system (it's not a 3)
-
Looked good first few minutes when we got at them, then retreated into our shell and slowed the game down. Awful
-
How many times have we said "well that was awful/shocking/dreadful" this season?
I can understand why Fielding is struggling to adapt to this way of playing. Maybe he isn't bad enough cos this lot are shite.
-
Fell asleep after about 25 mins, that about sums it up after a good start. Not really sure why we struggle to dictate midfield so much.
-
And you can't blame Williams!
It’s a wonder he hasn’t got the blame for it DBR
-
Goal been coming for a while. Tranmere far better team. Why are we so slow and lethargic and show no movement in midfield. This passing about at the back is ridiculous. We will have much of the same for the rest of the season with the team we have.
-
I said it at the time and I stand by it, Schofield wasn’t the man to take us forward, we are getting worse every time we play
-
Fell asleep after about 25 mins, that about sums it up after a good start. Not really sure why we struggle to dictate midfield so much.
Probably due to the fact Clayton can't run and Close can't tackle for starters
-
Don't understand why Kyle Knoyle who has been our biggest threat going forward up the right hand side this season has been changed to a more defensive role.
Just so slow with no attacking threat.
-
Mitchell rolls it out to Anderson, Anderson takes a touch looks up, turns & passes it back to Mitchell.
Mitchell rolls it out to Anderson, Anderson takes a touch looks up, turns & passes it back to Mitchell……& repeat.
6, 10, 12 times?
-
Absolutely shocking football. We have no idea, what has the current 'manager' implemented, it's no better than the previous one. Abysmal.
-
Has Biggins touched the ball yet? Or did I miss it?
-
Williams is part of a poor squad that we unfortunately have if he plays or not.
-
We need better center midfield players we have since Whiteman left and nothings changed. We bring in what we can afford they are not good enough.
-
2:0
-
2-0
-
2:0
Jesus.
-
f**king rubbish another team not won for ages and we gift them the game
-
2:0
Jesus.
No........ Kieron Morris
-
Clayton off for Molly. About 15 minutes too late.
-
So it goes on is it really all these managers fault. Let’s see who we can afford to sign loan or permanent in January then we will see what level of player we get.
-
Tough blow that, we'd started the half much better.
-

you would expect the manager to work out a game plan with the players he has however. Not think he’s Pep managing Barca. This obsession with passing/possession is folly with this squad. If this is the type of football he is serving up, do we want him to have the transfer window?
-
It doesnt seem to matter who is in charge does it? The same pedestrian unthreatening football delivered week in week out.
-
We can't even create anything at 0-2 with the home sitting back having a brew.

What? He shouldn't have a transfer window to bring in players to better suit his way of playing because of his current way of playing?
-
This is atrocious.
Gone 2-0 down and don't show any attacking threat or try to look like putting tranmere under pressure, and may I add a poor tranmere at that.
This is up there with the worst style of play for many seasons.
-
Worrying he thinks Seaman is good.
-
Things are looking up … Williams on :))
-
3-0
-
3 nil ffs
-
How pathetic have we become?
-
I don't want to watch hoof football, but from my understanding of the game, you can't score if you don't try and have a shot at the white rectangle type object at the opposite end of the pitch.....
-

"WIlliams with his first touch heads it upin the air" :suicide:
-
We have got yet another fraud of a manager. How the hell is this acceptable?
-
Schofield, if he had anything about him should come out and apologise for this abject display … utterly inexcusable.
-

yes, as it’s shocking. 1 up front and playing at snails pace is not for us. We’re in League 2 for crying out loud. Last 4 managers have tried it and it hasn’t worked. God only knows why we thought this equally inexperienced chap would be any different.
Hand on heart, and I say this with a straight face, I’d take Steve Evans tomorrow.

Looking at the bigger picture it's not an horrendous statement. The fans that questioned the appointment now question giving him a transfer window. Really they are sticking to their guns because DS hasn't convinced them otherwise, actually he's compounded their negative thoughts on his appointment.

I'd look to play direct and master picking up the 2nd ball in this division.
-
If I didn't know better, this is like watching a very poor Conference side. Absolutely appalling.
-
One can't really underestimate just how bad this squad is, or how we've somehow managed to appoint another manager who doesn't understand what's required to get out of League 2.
-
Any chance of a shot on target lads, tell you what I'll settle for creating something. Never have I seen a team so devoid of ideas.

It's concerning that he's had weeks on the training ground to come up with this crap. Our 2 main attacking threats in Hurst & Molyneux on the bench & knoyle at cb
-
The balance of the squad is all wrong. Hurst, Maxwell, Long, Seaman are not players who should be playing week in week out they're development players. Schofield's hinted at that aswell before. Fundamentally I don't think any manager could get these playing top three football.

Top 3 football? We are playing bottom level football.

I would prefer us to master picking up the 1st ball
-
If we question the appointment then we should be questioning Copps Role he wanted him. He’s involved in getting players to the club. What i question why we continue to play 343 all the time.
We haven’t got the players to play it. Any way let it continue nothing going to change we have what we’ve got from the top of the club through to the players poor

Top 3 football ? Christ don’t think any 1 is asking for that now but god it needs to be better then this

It's to some extent a legacy of the churn of managers over the last couple of years. There's multiple transfer windows with no consistent long term vision involved in them.
-

If he doesn't come out, tell it how it is, & not talk bo--ox, he'll go down in my estimation, this has been inexcusable & a total embarrassment.
-
The squad we have is the same squad we had under mcsheffrey and we all know these players aren’t good enough.
So it is ludicrous to slag this manager when he hasn’t signed one player yet
-

Nobody has 'slagged' the manager though have they.

Looking forward to the managers comments on the match as I can’t think what excuses he can possibly give.

You can’t have read much of this forum tonight

Lol, there's a difference in saying he's not good enough, & slagging him off, your words, yeah!
