Todays team
COYR
-
hope Galbraith plays in a more advanced role close to mipo
-
Could be judgement day, or the first of three. Shrewsbury have a habit of going behind, then starting to play. Hope they carry that on. We could do with a good start.
-
"All being played in the Rovers half so far"
-
1 -0 game over
-
Man against boy.
-
Got to do something now that we haven’t done all season and come from behind to win. First time for everything!
COYR
-
Think we just need this season to end now
-
What kind of defending was that? Jeeez so bad.
-
Olowu and Williams are not a viable centre half pairing. I don't think Olowu is playing in his best position. Williams, plodding, average, slow.
-
What kind of defending was that? Jeeez so bad.
Defending?? What defending. We are embarrassing.
-
We don’t look like scoring yet again.
-
for 2.4 seconds i thought Rovers were winning
was listening to a dodgy radio signal having lunch and the radio sheffield commentator said someone beginning with "O" had scored - thought it was our version my brain cant handle these "wonky names"
then he said something like thats his 5th goal in 7th matches and I knew the game was up.
never mind for 2.4 seconds I thought we were ahead :suicide:
-
Shocking yet again, we look awful.
-
What kind of defending was that? Jeeez so bad.
Prez, I have to admit that I had nodded off and didn’t see it.
-
Wimbledon winning so the bloke on sky just said "as things stand donny are going down ".
-
This is utterly disgraceful! We need a total clear-out.
-
Todays game is the first league game I havent watched on iFollow all season and purposely. Its my very small protest at the way we have capitulated from board and management to player level. To drop to L2 is utterly inexcusable. It should NEVER have come to this. So many really bad decisions, complacency and ineptitude have led to this and quite frankly no one has had the decency to come out and admit it. Shocking disregard toward the supporters of DRFC.
-
Wimbledon winning so the bloke on sky just said "as things stand donny are going down ".
Not sure that he is right there.
-
Oh dear.
-
f**king awful!
-
Pending a miracle we will be put out of our misery today
-
From bad to worse 2-0 if one thing that does need to be sorted for next season is the defending it’s been crap all season
COYR
-
Well, I saw that one.
Terrible defending, right from the long ball into our box to an unmarked runner, to the far post cross which was inevitably nodded home.
-
We're at the point where the manager has to go no way can he carry on
-
Their player unmarked in the box, has time to bring it down at his leisure. Simple ball hung up. Olowu gets humbled once again.
Shocking.
-

Youth In Asia :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:
-
2 - 0. This is definitely the end of the season. The faults Copps is picking out have never changed all season. What will happen when we reduce the squad and go into Lg.2?
-
We're at the point where the manager has to go no way can he carry on
And yet there are still people who will argue against that.
-
We're at the point where the manager has to go no way can he carry on
Yeah can't believe he didn't head that away. Ffs McSheffrey.
-
Terrible. Absolutely terrible
-
We're at the point where the manager has to go no way can he carry on
Manager had to go 8 games ago but the club just don't work proactively.
The mentality of the players is shocking, truly shocking.
-
Everyone of the "defence" on show today has to go. Get rid of the lot. They are abysmal.
-
Wimbledon winning so the bloke on sky just said "as things stand donny are going down ".
Not sure that he is right there.
As it stands we're 7 points from safety and only 2 games left after today.
-
We're at the point where the manager has to go no way can he carry on
Yeah can't believe he didn't head that away. Ffs McSheffrey.
he has bought many of these players, performances amd results have rarely improved since he has been in charge, do you think that's acceptable?
-
Misplaced passes, no shape, no width, lack of effort, a young lad on his own up front just chasing shadows. It's an absolute farce, this just can't go on. I've held back calling for his head, but he has to go.
-
Shows just how shit we are without a dominant centre half.
I can somewhat forgive an inexperienced young CB like Olowu. Williams... needs to stay in Shrewsbury, Mitchell can stay there too.
-
Shrews 7 shots, 5 on target. Rovers 1 shot 0 on target.
-
:clapping:We have not been able to defend for 18 month now ,totally shocking
-
Everyone of the "defence" on show today has to go. Get rid of the lot. They are abysmal.
To be replaced by what? Remember they are on a reduced player budget next season.
-
I find it embarrassing Copps on commentary to be honest, subtle deconstruction about the current manager's complete lack of ability to instruct the players. Basic things they should be doing, which they aren't
3-0
-

I felt we've improved a fair bit in the previous 3 games, despite the defeats the performances were there. Today is shocking though.
-
Butler is 10x the player/defender than our current centre backs
-
3 - 0
-
Half the players gm has signed can't even get in this crap team for me that says it all
-
This is heading for another six nil.
-
We're relegated by a performance that epitomises our season.
-
omg- wtf am I watching?
A fans team could do better than this shower.
gmc - I tried. You need to be sacked at half time.
-

No they’re not.
Not sure how many times I have to type that out!!!
-
Absolutely dreadful defending, we can't defend balls coming in from wide positions. No one organising, no-one tracking runners. To me that is down to poor coaching and the manager is responsible.
-
Shrews 7 shots, 5 on target. Rovers 1 shot 0 on target.
Exactly, the game with a team with nothing to play for, against a team (supposedly) fighting for their lives.
-
3 goals and 3 pieces of poor defending.
COYR
-
Williams should have stopped the cross
-
So we are relegated and Mc Sheffrey will still be the manager yet these owners should sack him after today. If not then the owners are failing in their duties
The budget doesn’t matter if you can only afford poor players
-
Wimbledon winning so the bloke on sky just said "as things stand donny are going down ".
Not sure that he is right there.
As it stands we're 7 points from safety and only 2 games left after today.
Agreed but nothing to do with the Wimbledon score.
-
I am finished listening to this, I am sick and tired of the squad we have being incapable of playing league football. Without some kind of investment in the future the club are slowly going out of the football league, and we will be back where we started when JR came to the rescue, and for the same reasons. Owners who don't give a damn about the club.
-
I dont know how anyone can defend mc.
-
Shrews 7 shots, 5 on target. Rovers 1 shot 0 on target.
1 on target (Mipo)
-
I hope those very loyal supporters at the game today make their feelings known and dont hold back with ‘ GMc OUT! … they deserve much better.
-
Williams should have stopped the cross
Bostock should track the runner.
-
Williams should have stopped the cross
Bostock should track the runner.
We'd need a spreadsheet to list all the mistakes this season.
-
With the ball we are playing like a side 3-0 ahead, just keeps coming back to our defence, no urgency, no nothing.
-
We are f**king crap
-
Williams should have stopped the cross
Bostock should track the runner.
And if you watch Knoyle he looks like he hasn't got a f**king clue what position to take up. Head spinning. Clueless organisation.
-
Half time 3-0. I’ve listened to a lot a away games this season and this one is up there with the worst of them. Poor defending time and time again. Williams is not a defender that should be playing league one football. I’m not sure he’s good enough for the conference!. Olowu isn’t much better either. We had a better back four in the conference days, even in the first season in the conference the back four were better than this shower of sh!t
COYR
-
Can't believe how bad we are !!
-
I have no faith in GMc giving them a huge bollocking during half time, whereas Cotterell, who I cant stand would be throwing the hair dryer, sink, toilets at them if he was manager. To be wishing we had a manager like him shows how far we have fallen.
-
If there was ever a half of football that sums the season up for the whole club that was it. Lifeless. I would love to know what they plan on doing to sort this next season.
-
You just have to look at the difference in work rate between the two teams, we are miles behind them, no f**ker runs into space for us
-
Sorry but he needs sacking - there has been no sign of any improvement despite backing in Jan and players such as Bostock coming back into the mix.
-
I trust there will be a board meeting at the end of the season?*
*Which for us is now.
-
GM out now !!
-
Organisation, organisation, organisation!!! We have absolutely none. No matter the quality of the players the minimum requirement from the management team is to give the team a system to work to and everybody know their role. There is absolutely no sign of that with whatever eleven McSheffrey puts out. He has to go and it needs to be immediate if I'm to put my hard-earned into the club next season.
-
Warching this game and can't believe how awful we are. The manager has to go. He is completely out of his depth and some of this team should be ashamed of fhemselves. The lack of effort and ability is disgraceful. Most teams in National League would beat us on this performance.
-
This is stomach churning. A very damning performance by the whole team, not just the woeful defence. They are not showing the slightest glimpse of character or ability and it’s hard to see how we can start to bounce back without a big clearout this summer. Let’s hope that we show something in the second half to give some hope.
-
Nothing justifies McSheff being in charge next season.
-
Another change at HT. Another bizarre selection starting Ethan sort of out right. Worrying shit
-
I’m cheering for Shrewsbury this half , every goal that goes in is a nail in GMs coffin , wake up board and sack the joke of a manager
-
I will put money on him still being here next season.
-
For most of the season:
When we've played reasonably well we've lost.
When we've played badly we've been humiliated.
Such a shower of f**king useless shite. Get rid of as many as we can before next year. Like de-lousing a kid's hair, we need to go down to the roots to get the lot out.
-
Maybe time has dulled my memory, but I’m sure the young lads that had everything stacked against them in the year Richardson and Weaver took us off of the Football League fought harder and showed more personal pride than some of this side.
-
3-1
-
3-1
Think I’m cursed I support Donny first half and conceded 3 , I support Shrewsbury second half and concede after 10 mins
-
Good finish from Mipo. Not done too bad today tbh considering this shower.
-

In fairness to some of those lads, they weren't even pros. Didn't weaver put a neighbour of his in goals one time? Mad that we're at the stage to be comparing our current lot with that team.
-
3-1
A bit of fight? Solid strike. Who knows.....
-

Yep, to this and BST's post above. Tommy Rowe and a couple of others aside but this is as gutless a squad as I can remember. Recruitment has been so poor.
-
I'm 63, never progressed beyond Saturday League level but still play a bit even now. If I'd been plating centre-back today, neither of the first two goals go in. That's how unbelievably f**king shit are defenders are!
-
i'm laying Shrewsbury at 33/1 ON at the moment

Bobby, I’m happy to hear that you are still,playing a bit ….. but be realistic.
You would have been on your knees after ten minutes gasping for air.
No way would you have made a difference.
I know what you mean though about how poor our lads have been (for their level) today.
-
Things will look a lot better when Tommy puts us in front.
Now. Inhale, hold, release.
ahhhh..........
-
Why can't we play like this for 90 mins, we look like we have a completely different 11 out there this half!
-
Smith misses another sitter.

been laying SHREWSBURY AT 50/1 on :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:

Just looking at the name on the stand behind Mitchell.
The DM RECRUITMENT STAND.
I wonder whether they loaned all the stuff to build it.

Is there any chance we could get a draw
-
Come on Rovers, Gillingham are drawing, get a couple of goals.
-
We look a better side playing 2 up top..
-
Down in 3 minutes.

Down in 3 minutes.
That's the spirit....

That has been said by plenty of us all season.
It just hasn’t happened enough.
-
Down in 3 minutes.
we're not down officially as we could pass fleetwood if score 30 goals ish
-
3-3
-
Get in
-
the worst set of results today
-
ummmmmm hh 3-3 well you saw me do it in front of your eyes
A TEAM 50/1 ON AND THEY DIDNT WIN !!
-
Colemans Left Hook - Cash out now lol!!!
-
Morecombe late draw has done us, even if we won...
-
ft
-
This is a big plus for GMc, well done to him and the players.
-
Oh well see you all in Lg 2!
-
Colemans Left Hook - Cash out now lol!!!
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT PRICE I BACKED MK DONS AT WHEN I STARTED THAT ROTHERHAM THREAD
-
Ah well, a good second half and a great comeback today but overall, not good enough.
McSheff resign tonight please.
-
We can now pass fleetwood if we win both and they lose all 3
-
Clayton looking like a leader out there at full time.
-
To little to late now need 6 points and an 18 goal difference swing in the last 2 games. Come on game on we can do this…….. well maybe not but we never know
Onwards and ????
COYR
-
We can now pass fleetwood if we win both and they lose all 3
But we will still be in 21 place at best - and relegated...
-
Tommy Rowe. WTF happened?
-
Pleased we didn't crumble. But they barely even bothered second half tbf.
-
Sorry yes was thinking 3 down
-
Rotherham to batter Gillingham on the final day to keep us up.
-
Tommy Rowe. WTF happened?
What did happen?
-

No, Mickey. Winning our last 2 will see us finish on 40 points. If Fleetwood lose their last 3, they finish on 39 points. Ergo, we are safe! :thumbsup:
-
No, we need to finish 20th (currently Gillingham on 40 points) to stay up.
-
Maybe time has dulled my memory, but I’m sure the young lads that had everything stacked against them in the year Richardson and Weaver took us off of the Football League fought harder and showed more personal pride than some of this side.
Massive concerns still but having questioned their fight and pride earlier it’s only fair to say they showed some in the second half.
-

SORRY WILTS, IF WE WIN OUR LAST TWO AND GILLS LOSE THEIR LAST TWO, THERE ALSO NEEDS TO BE AN 18 GOAL SWING ON GOAL DIFFERENCE AS WELL.
iTS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
EDIT: Sorry for the capitals but i can't be bothered to retype it.
-
The only reason we are not officially mathematically relegated is that if we win both games, Fleetwood lose all their three matches (including against Wimbledon next week) and Wimbledon lose their other game, and Gillingham lose their last two games, and we can overturn an 17 goal difference deficit with Gillingham............then we can finish 20th.
Of course that is never going to happen, but the infinitesimal mathematical possibility means we do not yet have an 'R' against our name.

then he said something like thats his 5th goal in 7th matches and I knew the game was up.
never mind for 2.4 seconds I thought we were ahead :suicide:
it seems their goalscorer was "Udoh (19' minutes)", which when pronounced in Colemans alternative world sounds like our man
"Odubeko (54' minutes)"
so the young lad did eventually score again (two in a row) and against all the odds Coleman got a very happy bank manager (again)
-
In case anyone has been on the bank holiday sauce a bit too much as some still think survival is possible. Rovers need to win both their last two games by hefty margins and gills need to lose both theirs by hefty margins, with a combined GD swing of 18 in favour of rovers.
Oh, and if that isn’t enough, we also need Fleetwood to lose their last three games too, and if that isn’t enough Wimbledon must not get more than three points in their last two games either.
To say the planets must align is possibly the biggest football understatement ever.
Stratospheric odds against survival.
Not impossible, but let’s face it. It’s as near as.
We are down.
It’s over for this season.
Looking forward to being allowed a beer whilst watching matches next year.

Spot on, hound! I forgot to take Gillingham’s games into account…it’s my age, you know!
