Anything going on?
-
Seems not. Bit early, I suppose
-
Missed a couple of games as I was recovering from surgery. What the hell have they done to the PA system?? Jfc I can’t make a word out.
-
McGrath should be in ahead of woody..

McGrath should be in ahead of woody..
I thought he might have made that change too, I guess he will at some point in the game.
-
Well here we go. I really hope we find our gear today
-
FFS
-
Shit defending and goalkeeping.
-
How easy was that? Fs
-
Bradford winning too. Not the best of starts
-
Early days. Bradford in front too, I really fancied us to overtake them today looking at the two games.
-
Bradford 2 up
-
Bradford now 2 up but down to 10 men it's a long time to play with 10 men even with a 2 goal lead.
-
Come on rovers sort it out
-
Do our lads know it was an early kick off? We really haven't turned up yet.
-
Why no hoops?

Wish I shared your optimism, hard to overlook how poor we have been against the better teams in this division.
-
Defence looking a bit weak.not much happening for rovers.
-
Bradford now 2 up but down to 10 men it's a long time to play with 10 men even with a 2 goal lead.
my clutching at straws department says at least twice Swindon have come back from 2-0 (or should i say 2 goals down) in their last ten matches - as we know - i was expecting Swindon to win
-
have we won a game in the league this season when we have gone behind - I am not sure we have
by the way this ref hasn't sent anyone off this season according to the tv commentator
-
Why no hoops?
Special 4th shirt to raise money for charity, plenty have pointed out that we shouldn't have done it

2 1 come back is on. Now just need to mount our own comeback

bradf.ord n.o.w 2-1

i gotta winner !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sent off the refs first of the season :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
-
Red card!
-
Thank god we might have a chance now
-

Could I get the double up with this post ?????? meaning us to win
-
Team talk for the blues, get play restarted
-
Another great opportunity for us, but they will sit deep and make it difficult.
-
We’ll win this.
-
this is much better
-
bradford 3-1 it was smallwood sent off a key player
-
The time wasting has started in earnest….
-
We've often struggled against Wimbledon. I remember, years ago, when Colin Addison I believe was their manager, Rovers got into trouble with the FL because one of the many, many incensed supporters had thrown a cup of coffee over their directors sat in our directors box. They were effing awful that day. And they still are. I never, ever get my hopes up when we play 'em

-
good play from gibson to step between two players, clifton kicks it over the bar
-
They look strong at the back.
Gibbo looks in the mood though, come on Rovers.
-
Credit to the ref for booking the time wasting for the throw in!
-
Good game to watch. We needed the extra man though!
-

then bottling a blatant penno shout?
-
I think we can take comfort for the fact that Wimbledon were far more dangerous when they were attacking with 11 men than they are defending. When they’ve tried to preserve a lead recently they’ve not succeeded - eg vs Barrow.
-
swindon 2-3
i switched over and couldnt believe it as the ball went in the net
71.6% possession Swindon
-
This is set up to go 3 at the back, get another striker on
-
3 minutes of added time seemed a bit tight, given Wimbledon had a mini summit after the sending off.
We look good. We need to keep the movement going to open them up and the goals will come. Huge second half for the season.
-
We’ll win this.
I've got that feeling too
-
Good game to watch. We needed the extra man though!
We were building up before the send off with more possession and a few chances but yeah the extra player is very good for our game
-

Agree
-
We’ll win this.
You always say this! Hope this time you’re right!
-
We’ve been better since they stopped attacking but it’s doesn’t feel one sided. We must improve the decision making and finishing radically. If we don’t win today we don’t deserve to go up.
-
We’ll win this.
You always say this! Hope this time you’re right!
Eternal optimism, Nick.
-
That goal was all about Woods, he tried to bully their forward got beaten to the ball and for strength, then never kept up with him for the goal- poor.
-
YOU WILL BE SHOCKED when you see the BRADFORD CHARITY goals (all 3)
ist goal scored from a Halliday long throw scorer unmarked near post -scored with his foot not his head !! and the next two goals were horrible defending
3rd goal came from a lHalliday long throw in ball allowed to bounce
2nd goal swindon hit a Bradford player with his clearance
Wimbledon have a Lebanese on the pitch let's hope their promotion chances go up in smoke not ours
-
Wimbledon have adopted a less defensive approach which is probably more effective for them!
-
We need to change it. 2 up top
-
sbarra on for clifton
-
Sbarra on for Clifton. One pot dog for another. Getting fed up of this.
-
Just can't break them down feels like Bromley all over again
-
Need to get Mols into it. Switch wings?
-
Just can't break them down feels like Bromley all over again
We broke down Bromley numerous times but missed absolute sitters, if we create those chances again we surely can’t miss that number of clear cut chances again
-
think swindon is 3-3 yes
-
Why are we not getting another striker on?
-
sharp getting ready
-
Way things are going settle for a point now we are not creating anything.they are solid at the back.
-
Sharp and Ironside coming on
-
sharp red card
-
Wtf
-
Billy Sharp off
-
That was never a red card
-
Ridiculous red for Sharp. On the say so of their player.
-
Absolute d**khead lost any hope of winning this now, yellow at most
-
Absolutely never a red.
-
Joe Lewis is a horrible b*at*rd wouldn't piss on him if he was burning
-
Never a red, silly from Sharp to do what he did but never a red.
We've been shite, again, against a half decent team but at least Sharp's red will give McCann an excuse now.
Zero plan. Could be talking about the game or the season there.
-
I cannot believe that. One of the worst decisions I’ve ever seen. Didn’t consult his assistant. Shocking.
-
Absolute d**khead lost any hope of winning this now, yellow at most
It wasn’t even that imo
-
That was never a red card
He did nothing
-
Referee aside, we have been f**king dire today.
-
We’ve been poor second half. Dire is a bit extreme.
-
Yesssssssssssssss
-
Yes!!
-
2 in 2 for Sterry!
-
Get the fack in
-
Thank god for that. Come on the ten men.
-
Ooooooooooft a stroke of luck like that was the only way we were getting back into it!
Interesting last 10 minutes now with the way we're set up. I'd take a point but either side could get a winner here.
-
yes they all count i thought Mcgrath might score a goal like that (deflected)
-
Their keeper is a proper tw@t
-
$hite bradford winning 4-3
-
A lot of added time to come
-
Billy head butted their player in the back. If it is the other way around we would be screaming for a red. Absolutely stupid from Billy
-
Ginger bollox Halliday scores…
-
Next 10 mins could be crucial.id take a point but if we could sneak one..!
-
Billy head butted their player in the back. If it is the other way around we would be screaming for a red. Absolutely stupid from Billy
Is that 100 per cent correct?
-
f**k me what a gift. Poor miss on the counter from Wimbledon.

That wasn't immediately obvious on Sky. I'm sure we'll get replays on here later.
-
Any advance on 5 minutes Injury time?
-
Should be 8-10
-
7
-
I think a reduction to 10 a side footy would improve the game.
-
Never 7
-
We’re hanging on
-
bradford 4-4 swindon can win this (in my dreams)
-
Sheff Utd blowing their auto chances...
-
Get in Swindon
-
Full time. Performance wasn't good enough in my opinion.
-
Swindon scored again
5-4 get in
-
i wonder WHERE we might play these if we are in the play offs
-
Well, we had enough chances to win that but so did they. Take a point and move on.
-
swindon 5-4
-
Sharp may have cost us a win there . Mind you both red cards were ridiculous
-
Full time. Performance wasn't good enough in my opinion.
It was good enough for a point from one of our main rivals and keeps them below us!
Decent result for us
-
swindon 5-4
to repeat brilliant bradford own goal their 2nd own goal
-
How did it end had to go to the shop to get out the way
-
Decent result? We failed to win against a team that had 10 men most of the game ffs.
-
Bit of a nail biter in the end we struggled to keep possession
-
swindon 5-4
to repeat brilliant bradford own goal their 2nd own goal
still playing seconds to go

Is that 100 per cent correct?
Yep. It happened right in front of me. I was inline about 8 rows away

Very on brand from you.
We had a man advantage for 40-odd minutes.
-
Here’s hoping Bromley and Barrow can get results.
-
Sharp might have cost us promotion.

Stupid of Sharp, a seasoned professional. I wonder if Lewis did or said something… The fact remains that the ref didn’t see it, he didn’t consult his assistant and seemed to send Sharp off solely on the say so of Lewis. Bizarre.

so dreams do come true :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
-

Don’t agree at all. All to play for. I think most of would have taken a point off the team directly below us. And anything can happen… Look at the Bradford result, for example.
Keep the faith, my good man.

We could have played 70 mins with an extra man with a clinical striker on to hopefully get us 3 points and put us 2nd but because he's a petulant child we had to even it up and we're lucky to get a point.
-
Is that the last we will see of Sharp in a rovers shirt? 3 match ban. Which I can’t see the club appealing . His behaviour today will not endear him to Mcann at all
-

Nah he'll score the winner against Bradford.

He won’t call out Billy, Billy Sharp. Can guarantee his post-match will be complaining about the referee’s decision.

Very on brand from you too,
We need 80 points, so 9 points from 5 games will do it

Yes. But to say he might have cost us promotion is a but overly dramatic I feel. Just my opinion of course.

Lewis did do something.
As the ball went behind for a corner he put a forearm smash into the back of Billy’s neck.
Poor of Billy to react like he did though.
-

Will he b*llocks.!!
It’s a 46 game season with plenty opportunities to get points, not just a one-off game.
If we’re not good enough to get sufficient points to finish 3rd or above, one red card against a tough opponent isn’t going to be the deciding factor..
