That’s as strong as we get at the moment, this formation suits our abilities better too

No point playing that counter attack style with no support for the lone striker

Get in!!!!
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 03:11:14 pm
We  now need to follow in and get at least 2 up before half time!

Get in Gibbo, now let’s go for the jugular

Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 03:25:53 pm
Just what we needed 2 up with plenty to go.

Go on Gibbo!!!

Post by: CottyRover on November 29, 2025, 03:30:13 pm
A really promising start.
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 03:39:00 pm
3 up by HT!!!! No sitting back.

Let's hope! I couldn't be there today. Maybe I should stay away! How's Hanlan doing?
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: monkeytennis on November 29, 2025, 03:51:39 pm
Hanlan is a bit mid for me. A bit clumsy. Still we are doing okay and it’s been a flowing half of enjoyable footy.

Also where is the Northern score board???

Post by: CottyRover on November 29, 2025, 03:53:50 pm
Is the scoreboard being repaired? I noticed it went a bit doolally last time.

A wins a win but we could really do with scoring another 2 goals to try and sort the goal difference out
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: CottyRover on November 29, 2025, 03:57:01 pm
Yes, goal difference is not good just now.

Will Gibson get a hat-trick?
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 04:10:14 pm
Just what was required.......for an opposition! Tin hats now and back to back passing and panicking.

Alfie Beestin put Scunthorpe 2-1 up away
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 04:28:23 pm
At least Rovers are getting some shots in now, I thought they were going to try defending for 45 minutes.

Five rovers players booked now come on rovers put the game to bed
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: CottyRover on November 29, 2025, 04:38:53 pm
The ref seems to have been a bit handy with the yellow cards for both sides. Has it been that bad a game?
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 04:42:00 pm
Rovers hanging on now, from what should have been a comfortable win at HT.
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: PDX_Rover on November 29, 2025, 04:47:14 pm
Ref is a bit of a kitson
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: Wiltshire Exile on November 29, 2025, 04:49:52 pm
Overall possession: Rovers: 37.3%; Peterboro’; 62.7%

So are the Posh commentary team

Post by: Barmby Rover on November 29, 2025, 04:54:27 pm
Phew, we needed the win, but we should not be scraping it when we were well in front at HT.

FT 2-1 Rovers… hard fought victory
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: dknward2 on November 29, 2025, 04:57:48 pm
A wins a win 3 points is all that matters, just move on to the next one just hope for no injuries and the bookings don't tip anyone over the line for a suspension

May be me but i find McGrath weakens the side with a lot of negative play.

Bring on Chesterfield, next Tuesday!

Probably the best side weve faced this seaaon. Their number 28 (Garbett) was class plus the lad who came on at half time caused us no end of problems. Great win considering we would normally lose those type of games!
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: DRFCSouth on November 29, 2025, 05:23:37 pm
Ref was card happy. Not that kind of game imo.
Title: Re: Rovers Vs Peterborough
Post by: glosterred on November 29, 2025, 05:43:22 pm
Need that win to get the season going again (hopefully). But on the second half performance we probably didn’t deserved all 3 points.

Onwards and upwards

Well 6 points clear of the drop zone and 6 points off the play offs  not taking any GD into account
