Todays team in the early kick off

Crew straight into the spotlight. Good luck young man.
Keeping the attacking intent so will be interesting if we can be a little more controlled in possession.
I suspect Gills will come out all guns blazing so important we keep calm for the first 15 mins or so, then hit them hard.
-
Disappointing for me that. We’re so much better with Joe up top. And I don’t rate Sbarra one iota. Hoping for victory nonetheless.

Micky Walker on Radio Sheffield again. F'in dreadful

Thank you for warning me.

Just turn down the volume :whistle:
-
Come on Rovers. Let’s hope we put in a performance we know we are capable of and bring home the 3 points! Just one downside … Micky Walker on comms … aggghhh !
-
Why do they keep putting Walker on when nobody likes him??.
-
They put Walker on because he shows the same contempt for Rovers that Radio Dee Dah has.
-
Cheap?
-
Whatever they are paying him, it's too much
-
Scrappy start, we are looking shaky at set pieces
-
Yes we are.
But I like the movement up front from the little I’ve seen.
-
Need to get a grip on these set pieces
-
First 20 is not a good watch. I am far from a negative fan but worry we don't seem tobtake a grip of matches
-
Yellow for Olowu very harsh

Yellow for Olowu very harsh
I don’t think he even touched the player who fell over.
-
Comfortably second best so far and arguably fortunate not to be behind. Barely had a kick in their half for the last 10 - 15 minutes.
-
Very average start here....
-
Sharman Lowe injured. Is it bad?
-
Back up and OK. Tactical?
-
Feels like men against boys... TSL taking a tactical injury there - hopefully GM can get some messages on.
-
They're not really a footballing team. It's just miss timed tackles and hoofball. We're trying to play but the pitch is a bit bobbly
-
Sharman Lowe injured. Is it bad?
I think it was probably a convenient stoppage by TSL to relieve the pressure we have been under
-
It was definitely a tactical injury to give Grant time to rejig the lads. They are at sixes and sevens right now.
-
The lad taking the long throws is putting his feet over the line and onto the pitch every time and nothing being noticed by the lino.

I noticed that as well

It feels like it is only a matter of time before we concede.

Yessss Molly with a chip over the goalkeeper.
-
Gooooooaaaaaaalllllll

-
Not at the game, someone give Nevitt some stick from me please
-
Wow!! Don’t deserve to be winning but who cares!!
-
A gift helps though...
-
Bit of luck and abit of individual quality from our best player.
Generally, we've been rushed on the ball.
-

Can you say that again please in 10 mins
-
Totally against the run of play come on rovers
-
Good stuff Mols, a lot like last week, press all the time and get a break away.
-
Superb composure and finish by Mols.
-
Totally undeserved but take nothing away from that goal, lovely finish.
-

I can see us conceding soon....... :whistle:
-
One bit of brilliance from Molly following a very poor performance so far.
-

You were saying, Mickey?! :thumbsup:
-
Billy!
-
What a miss from Billy !
-
Sharp...... :ohmy:
-
Bloody hell billy should have been 2 nil
He will make up for it iam sure
-
HT 0-1
-
Goal completely changed the dynamics of the game.
-
We were beginning to grow into the game as the half wore on.
-
The goal apart that was a terrible first half from us
-
Any observations how Crew's doing?
-
The goal for those not watching

As time went on Rovers midfield started to get further up the field and challenging for the ball. Pushing them back will be the second half challenge. Get the ball to Billy in the right place, he will want to make up for that miss!
-
Any observations how Crew's doing?
He looks a little lost, for me.
-
The goal apart that was a terrible first half from us
agreed. Usual weaknesses remain. The midfield is just not up to it. Early days for young Charlie but we need more from the rest. Our playmaker Sbarra has touched the ball 5 times and can’t tackle a fish supper. At least when Ironside is playing, he helps us get up the pitch.
Fabulous scoreline however.
-
Those saying we had a terrible half, interesting that we have had 2 shots on target, one goal. Gillingham only 1 shot on target, for all their possession (Rovers are on 40% there too)
-
How’s the new lad doing?
-

Not really got into the game for me

Not contributing much to be fair but it is his first ever league start and Gills are a very physical team.

Interesting stat, of all the players on the pitch Sbarra comes up with the most successful tackles won with 5.
-
Hopefully the half time team talk has helped. Just get a 2nd goal to help us push on.

He does look a bit lost but we’ve hardly had any of the ball so limited opportunity to get into the game there, and a lot of their attacks have been either down the wing or over the top so have bypassed him.
-
Sbarra having a decent game

Just hope we come out with a bit of focus. Too many times we’ve conceded not long after half time.

remarkable. Where on earth did you find that?
-
Attempt by Crew, assisted by Sbarra
-
Sbarra having a decent game
I'd agree with that.
Crew looks like he is used to having more time on the ball
-
Good start to the second half

Commentator seems a long term Gillingham supporter!
-
Not listening to Dee Dah because of the way they cover Rovers games. They are not worth listening to.
-
There will be a fair bit of extra time now.
-
What difference was that drop ball to the one we should have had the other week?
-
TSL and Sterry having good games
-
We have been alot more physical this half and it shows. Much better
-
Street also with a soft yellow
-
If we can hang on for three points here that’s a big win.
-
I don't think the aim is hanging on, I wouldn't be surprised if Rovers put this to bed with a second.
-
We seem to have had a few shots on goal
-
Coleman and his chewing gum! :)
-
6 extra minutes - about right
-
Joe has held up brilliantly since coming on
-
Hang on lads
-
And there we go! 3 good points today.
-
Would have been good to score more, but a good win
-
We defended really well in that second half, much the same way as we did at Hull, as well as creating some really good attacks too.
Well done Rovers.
-
Much better 2nd half, rarely troubled and could have got another goal. Great result, ok performance!
-
Happy journey home to the travelling support
-
3 points in the bag. A bit nervy at times but they did the job, well done Rovers. Celebrating with a pint in the Yorkshire Grey!
-
Looked solid, rarely troubled, comfortable etc. Good away win in a tricky game on a tricky pitch.
-
Sbarra having a decent game
Played well today, he will be needed in the run in!
-
Good win, that. Always a hard place to go. Very physical team. Team effort.
-
That was a hard watch, 2 poor teams very little quality from either team
3 points though move on to Harrogate and hopefully a better performance and 3 more points
Kudos to those who made the journey down there
-
To say some of the lads have been I’ll it really didn’t show good hard work from everyone
-
Hard watch first half, better second half, great finish for the winner. Well done lads, big shout to all our defence, kicked & headed everything, & a competent TSL behind them, great 3 points. Now for our home form.
-
Ironside should be in the team much more. The most capable of making a ball stick in the opposition half.
