I just want to know what the plans are in this window with the defence. Simple fact is if we signed 2 new centre halves who can both run and read the game we will climb the league. Thats how bad those 2 showers are. Bit of a Roy Keane comment but for the goal players had their arms outstretched looking at Oluwu as if to say "not again". He wants a bollocking!

I wish Biggins would just f**k off out of the club and Olowu could go with him.

Olowu should have been busting a gut to slice that ball over the stands out of harms way, but no, he went to the f**kin kiosk for hotdog and cup of tea.

Rovers fans have turned out today, we are in serious danger of losing what support we have left.

Anderson should have got his foot to the ball agreed ✓
Lawlor should have smothered the ball ? ✓ probably
Olowu should have defended much better ✓

Title: Re: County V TLOD
Post by: ForsolongaRover on December 26, 2023, 04:11:36 pm
We seem to have stopped tackling and when we get the ball we opt for the speculative pass (or is just an aimless boot?) rather than keeping it simple. It is desperate stuff with little visible confidence amongst the players, many of whom don’t look fit enough. Olowu has in fact made some timely clearances whether by judgment or just luck, but he has got himself in the right spots. Lawlor’s reactions aren’t much better than Jones’s - and the choosing 2 such indifferent goalkeepers was definitely McCann’s decision.

A couple of positives amidst the gloom for me, thought Sterry played like a proper right back before tiring.  Flint didn't look out of place in defence, showed a calmness & positional sense beyond his years. Deserves a place now, easily better than either of the 2 first half jokers.
