No close, no broadbent, that's a miss, the bench looks weak..

Lets face facts here..... if GM ignores the defensive unit this window, he deserves his job to be taken from him. There is no two ways about it we are horrendous and can not keep clean sheets.

Title: Re: Rovers Vs Morecambe
Post by: Scooter on December 16, 2023, 03:43:36 pm
Second goal striker clean through and should have buried it. Jones stopped it but went under his body. I think it was Anderson who blocked the follow up but then couldn’t stop the next attempt
I made it in at 29 minutes and not seen an effort at goal yet
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Morecambe
Post by: dknward2 on December 16, 2023, 03:45:22 pm
Rovers with 68% percent possession and we have done nothing with it, sort it out McCann
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Morecambe
Post by: ScillyRover on December 16, 2023, 03:46:37 pm
Sound like a broken record but I’ll say it again. We will never climb this league whilever we rely on this defence and in particular, Olowu and Anderson.
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Morecambe
Post by: Plumbster on December 16, 2023, 03:46:57 pm
It’s not just defence that’s poor- Biggins, Hurst and Mo have been dreadful this half

Pathetic attempt at a clearance, results in shot and great save from Jones.
Corner followed and yet again Olowu and Anderson just stare at it and is put wide lucky not to be 0-4

Title: Re: Rovers Vs Morecambe
Post by: monkeytennis on December 16, 2023, 03:52:50 pm
We’re in total disarray here. Tactically clueless. Slow tracking back and leaving huge space for them. If it stays 2-0 we’ll be lucky I think.

Also hope we got a warranty on that new scoreboard…

Post by: Prez on December 16, 2023, 03:53:11 pm
We are atrocious at the back. They’re number 10 and 12 ripping us a new arsehole. If this doesn’t reiterate to McCann what needs addressing in January then it will cost him his job. Anderson and Olowu have totally lost the plot.

The team as a whole is too nice. Very easy to come through the front players and midfield. When they do get through to the defence it’s been proven to hold up well to any pressure. We’ve lacked a proper partnership back there for some time.
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Morecambe

 I hope Grant looks at that 4th goal and watches Olowu. That is the most cowardly uncommitted play I have ever seen. That excuse of a football player should not play another game for this club. You have to watch it to believe it.

Look you lot, when a game is as bad as that you have to look for positives.

The movement and enthusiasm of the kids with their flags was fantastic.

All those people on Ifollow will know what I mean with the loop.

I would have preferred to have watched the loop than the game.

What about a refund for that poor service?

I can’t agree with you this time dickos, the (plentiful and loud) boos came as soon as the ref blew for half time.
When the boos are directed at officials the tend to come as they leave the pitch after the players have gone off.
