Danny Schofield makes three changes.
Tom Anderson, Liam Ravenhill and Caolan Lavery all come into the starting XI.

-
Don’t understand why TR can’t play midfield is he not up to it and Faulkner at the back. He must be better and definitely more experienced than Liam Ravenhill. Can’t see a win but you never know how
-
What is wrong with George Miller?
-
What is wrong with George Miller?
Injured.
-
Look second best already
-
Tom Anderson ,is shown the yellow card for a bad foul.
-
Not sure Crawley can keep the pace up all game
-
Why ffs can't he play Rowe in a more natural midfield role and put Faulkner (a defender) in defence?
Nonsensical!
-
Looks like we have carried on where we left off on Saturday. Same shite different ground.
-
I think my ipad is stuck in a shit football loop
-
Same old story, Crawley quickly closing us down and we don’t have a clue how to deal with it
-
This is awful I fear for us next season
-
Players in the bottom division of the EFL aren’t comfortable on the ball when pressed. That’s new information to no one but Schofield
-
Everyone shits themselves when they get the ball
-
I find it hard to believe he can finish this season in this job with performances like this whether we get a positive result here or not.
-
We are atrocious, no physicality whatsoever ever, being outfought & outthought by an extremely poor Crawley team. Someone needs to get hold of this team and give them the bollocking from hell!
-
Don’t think we have been anywhere near Crawley’s penalty area yet
-
It's getting comical this, it has to be or I'd cry.
-
We are like a pre season team where nobody wants to tackle in case they get injured.
-
Why do our players just look lazy and lethargic all the time ?
Just no intensity at all
-
Hurst, Lavery & Molyneux may as well come off!
-
Our shape is awful. Weak in the tackle, absolute Dross
-
Why do our players just look lazy and lethargic all the time ?
Just no intensity at all
Every team I've seen against us have looked brighter, more aggressive and hungrier than us, it's embarrassing!
-
Don’t think we have been anywhere near Crawley’s penalty area yet
we can’t get past the halfway line
-
40min in and according to BBC we haven’t managed a shot or corner.
Look at where these are in the league. We should be able to have a few shots at least!
-
Does anyone think that the squad isn’t behind the manager? They players get paid regardless of results, but if they don’t care enough to back him, they won’t perform?
I think that’s what happened under butler..
I’m not one for speculation or negativity but surely we should be competing??
-
I'm glad I saved my tenner by not paying to watch this. It's bad enough reading about it.
-
Hurst needs to spend the summer in the gym
-
Even Robbie on commentary can’t put his usual positive spin on things.
-
43 minutes before we have a cross into the box
-
Crawley are terrible but we are worse!
-
It's getting comical this, it has to be or I'd cry.
I’m sobbing!
-
I was no knoyle fan, but James Brown is as bad a right back as I can remember at the club
-
Closes challenge prior to Andersons yellow was a shining example of just not getting stuck in . This is sadly no different in endeavour than Saturday, just Crawley are a bit more clueless
-
Gooooaqqaaaallllll
-
Get in Lavery, didn't deserve that
-
My lad is at the game. He knows his football. He is usually quite eloquent and detailed with his match reports.
Some of his updates tonight so far.
We’re shite.
Awful footy
Really really bad.
But as I speak 0-1 lavery
-
Livery 45 plus 6
-
Nice finish by Lavery.
-
We’ll we scored! Underserved by the sounds of it
-
Who gives a shit we’ve scored
-
He reckons there is about 150 travelling faithful there.
-
That’s better - cheered me up a bit too!
-
No way did we deserve that, it gloss’s over an absolutely dire performance
-
Never been so underwhelmed and leading at half time.
Only time anyone has burst into a sprint was to chase after lavery when he ran to the corner to celebrate.
But we are winning. God knows how but we are.
Get ready for us to go more defensive (if that's possible)
-
Livery 45 plus 6
He stabled it well
COYR
-
Thats his 1st goal for Rovers isn't it. ?
-
I didn't think we could get worse but it seems there is no end to how bad we can get.
-
Papering
Over
Cracks
-
I was no knoyle fan, but James Brown is as bad a right back as I can remember at the club
First few games he looked really promising. But tonight he can't control the ball at all. Looks really poor, maybe was just a new club buzz he had at the start and this is the reason Stockport was happy to get rid
-

We are winning…and that’s all matters, eh Filo? Same for the second half, please.
-
Livery 45 plus 6

Iron ed out the mistakes
-
Hurst needs to spend the summer in the gym
He needs to break into a canter even once would do for a start. f**king hell and we've extended his contract???
-
Well, against my better judgement and because I have a free evening,I decided to pay for the iFollow coverage.
What an abjectly poor game, Crawley marginally better than us but not setting the game on fire.
Our attacking play is non existent, awful ball retention etc.
I was curious to see how Ravenhill fared when I saw the line up having seen him a couple of times and although he got a couple of decent tackles in, he consistently gave the ball away with poor passes.
Anyway, a very good header by Lavery from a great ball in by Close has put us in front so we now have something to hang on to.
I’m hoping for better things in the second half and I’m hoping too that I don’t fall asleep.
-
If I was Schofield I would definitely hook Hurst & Molyneux right now and get Miller & Barlow on, they have been complete passengers for the whole 45!
-
Thats his 1st goal for Rovers isn't it. ?
Yes it is!
-
We'll win this even if we do nothing 2nd half, apart from one shot early on Crawley have done nothing in that first half to threaten our goal and they've been the better team.
-
Quite baffled how anybody can be happy with what we have just watched just because we scored. Talk about papering over cracks.
-

Lets be fair they have been passengers for most of the season
-
Totally, StocksArmy.
-
I would have Degruchy and Goodman on for the 2nd half.
-
All elements of our game have been totally gash. Challenges, passing, showing, chasing, anticipating. Total rubbish.

Give over it wasn’t that good lol!
-
Let’s get radical and go 352
Move TR into midfield with Seaman and Close
Brown and Hurst wingbacks
Bring Bobby on RD and Olowu LD
Take Ravenhill off
-

We are winning…and that’s all matters, eh Filo? Same for the second half, please.
The same what? the utter rubbish we've seen for the last 2 years?
I don't think you realise how garbage this team is, or what a state our club is in just now.
-

Can imagine the half time team talk will be for it to be more of the same. Keep playing like this and the chance will come. Shocking.
Players look lethargic or not bothered.

The ball has barely passed the halfway line and the front three just can’t get into the game,
Very difficult to create any forward momentum when all the team turn and look backwards for the easy ball every time. All we seem to do is pass it backwards and then have trouble getting out of our final third, end up hoofing forwards for the same thing to follow on again.
No pattern or reason to our play but tonight we are playing an awful team and we just got lucky.
-
Because we are in front we might play at bit more cautiously in the second half, you know, no extravagant attacking play.
-
Park the bus with 40 mins to go?
Actually, I wonder if Schofield knows what park the bus means ?
-
Why has Schofield gone back to 1 up front again?
-
Trying to work out Schofield’s tactics is like trying to work out Coleman’s left foot’s posts
-
Park the bus with 40 mins to go?

Get near the players exit so we can get a quick get away.
-
So Ravenhill off Bobby on as he moved TR into midfield
-
Probably play six at the back now
-
Schofield can't be happy watching this rubbish.
-
We are just waiting for them to score
-
I wonder if those players that know or have a good idea that they won’t be playing for rovers next year just don’t give a shit?
-
Ffs
-
They are all taking turns to concede corners.
-
A deserved goal for Crawley
-
They should go on to win it now
-
Someone please get this guy out of our club.
-
Inevitable when you just invite pressure and can't be arsed!
-
Get him sacked. This is bloody embarrassing.
-
10C and Agard is playing football with gloves on
-
Good keeping by Moore!
-
What was Close doing? Just let him shoot!, get a f**king foot in. Could see the goal coming. If they get the winner I hope it means Schofield is gone tonight!!
-
What did we expect when we sit so deep and let them attack us all half. I’ve seen better tactics on the town fields on a Sunday.
-
We are not going anywhere but down with this clown at the helm! I've not seen a less motivated team than this one!
-
Should be 2-1 after that goal line scrap
-
DS as no idea to take a game by the scruff of the neck. If he hasn’t gone in the summer then we will go down again. Copps and Schofield to go and bring in a manager with promotion on his CV and these owners to back him and then ensure we will BBD. Our season tickets will be lower next season if we don’t do something radical relegation will happen next season
-
Get gone before summer can’t have this next season
-
What was Close doing? Just let him shoot!, get a f**king foot in. Could see the goal coming. If they get the winner I hope it means Schofield is gone tonight!!
Im convinced he doesn't want to be here and never has been bothered. Would love to see his running stats.
-
We have just given them all the impetus they needed.
-
These are fight relegation and they are making us look very poor
-
Thanks f@ck for the linesman!
-
These are fight relegation and they are making us look very poor
But we are very poor.
-
What’s the deal with Todd Miller, is he on some sort of five minute contract?
-
They don't have to try very hard
-
This season will not end well.
I foresee defeats to Colchester and Harrogate to come.
And then we have to go to the den of the fat pig and probably watch over a mullering .
Worse to come I fear.
Schofield is just too nice for this league.
Rovers need someone with grit and fight.
-
307 on a Tuesday night to Crawley is a good effort
-
Absolutely dire performance yet again
-
Are we mathematically safe from relegation?
-
I honestly can't remember a positive action in their half during the 2 nd half
-
307 on a Tuesday night to Crawley is a good effort
They should be refunded for all expenses having to watch this shite!
-
Well, apart from Lavery’s neat header, that was just dreadful.
-
Lucky to get anything from that!
-
Are we mathematically safe from relegation?
With 51 points you would hope so.
I can see gillingham finishing above rovers. They have spent, and spent well and it is paying dividends. They won again tonight
-
Win lose or draw it sounds like we’ve found consistency.
There’s no silver lining that makes DS worth sticking with
-
15 shots to rovers 2
-
307 on a Tuesday night to Crawley is a good effort
A damn site better effort than the team.
-
Total and utter SH!TE. This has to be the worst group of so-called footballers I've ever seen. No heart, no desire and no ability!
-
I would rather have Gary Mac back, unfortunately ds is just so boring
-
f**king terrible, what goes through Schofields mind, Hurst has been awful, he was just strolling about for the last 20 minutes and he waits until the 87th minute to take him off
-
Take a drink every time Schofield says “competitive” in his post-match interview
-
Listened to the game and it was an awful game to listen to. But a point on the road is better than nothing but there needs to be a vast improvement in performance on Saturday to take the pressure off DS.

That was a difficult watch with absolutely no redeeming features.
Bar the Lavery goal we never looked in any position to affect some sort of attacking momentum,
We have been out worked and out fought by a team that will be lucky to stay in the league, how does that make us look, awful.

He’s lost me I can’t support that garbage, he’s a disaster and every game we say that was crap, we seem to get worse the following game
-
Thought it was quite a decent result, until I realised I'd been getting Crawley mixed up with Stevenage in my head.
:coat:

It really is just progressively getting worse, game on game.
We have no idea at all and the players look like they don’t care, shameful position to be in.

With respect. If you’d watched that shower of white, you may have a less flattering opinion. Not only was that two points thrown, it was utterly turgid to watch. Conceding in the final stages of the game. Again. Zero game management. And it’s getting worse and worse with every game.

gloster. It was a dire performance mate.
I can't say anything about the Salford game because i haven't seen it but tonight was really poor.

I can assure you we were very, very lucky to get a point.
Unfortunately I don't think there is any improvement in this team and the management let alone a vast one. I am expecting a loss on Saturday!
