SOD sounded fairly disgusted at the lack of effort and the poor performance.
Very honest (as you'd expect from him).
He seemed pretty miffed and said it was probably the worst performance of the season.

Got to agree with him.
We weren't great up until Copps scored, but once he did, it went from bad to worse.

I agree with Sean saying it was our worst performance of the season, but, I also think he should take a little of the blame today, admittedly he was limited selection wise but the support for Hayter was virtually non existant, the Plymouth defence had a fairly easy game which gave them the impetus to get forward. We weren't brave or ambitious enough for me. Anyway we move on & enjoy the last five games. Whatever happens we have had a great season & the players & management deserve massive credit for that.

That was nowhere near worse than QPR. At least we huffed and puffed and created. We never showed up v QPR
-
I've seen three games this season and this was the middle performance. We were excellent v Cardiff away, very average yesterday and poor v Reading.
I got the impression our game v Swansea at the start of the season was probably our worst performance, then QPR and 'Boro (admitedly with a weakened team).
The result was our worst of the season, I'll go with that, but not the performance.
My major criticism was why did we nearly always slow it down when we entered the final third? JET, Oster, Chambers.....all guilty!

i agree with that, thats why i was surprised when SOD said it was the worst of the season.

That's the annoying thing about Rovers play. We get a break then stop to allow the opposition time to regroup. It's so frustrating....

I disagree with those games. At Cardiff I thought we were pretty gash and should have been dead and buried by half-time, though we did have an excellent second half.
Against Reading the following week, they were very impressive going forward, but I thought we created a hell of a lot and I really enjoyed the game.
Yesterday we had chances and created bits and bobs, but the performance was lethargic and we let a poor team beat us. We could have won if fortune had favoured us, but the performance was terrible - especially defensively.
Middlesbrough at home was a massive disappointment for me and I would probably highlight that game as our worst performance even though some off-field issues got in the way of the team selection and affected the game.
So you agree with the Boro' selection.
I am at the disadvantage of only seeing 3 games. I've listened to every other but agree it's a poor 2nd choice.
Cardiff was against a team who had just had a 6:0 away win. They were full of confidence and mullered us for 45 minutes. Our second half display was (I thought) worth a point.
Reading....you saw something I didn't obviously.
Yesterday was OK. Play-off standard....not even close. Middle if the road. I don't even think they particularly backed off Plymouth. Plymouth scored and then mentally picked themselves up to believe they could win it.
Two awful goals conceded, we can agree there.

Both games against Boro i would put down as our worst 2 followed then by maybe Swansea and Reading away(although we defended well) and against better opposition.That's what made it look worse yesterday as Plymouth were poor themselves

You've seen THREE games this season, and yet you think that puts you in a postion to comment on our worst performances? Looking at three games you've been to, i think you're a jinx and should stay away. ;)

SOD was really annoyed, even commented the warm up was not up to standard
