A change

[since-1969]

Marosi needs a rest conceded 3 now all down to him coming out and not getting the ball when staying put looked a better bet and leaving it to his fullbacks

[BigKeif]

Sorry he was hesitant for the penalty but butler got to close to the striker and result in being turned leaving Marosi to come flying out and the two corner goals came from defenders loosing their markers and beaten in the air. Can’t put all the blame on all 3 goals on him.

Cheswold for me.... that’s absolutely b*llocks team look tired and clueless.... good start boys but hopefully wheels are not crashing!!!!

[keith79]

Wow all 3.

Aup, we've missed you....

[Jersey Rover]

Need some sort of positive reaction now from second half if only to take forward into the next game. Think we will, just been one of those days

For a celebration pint

[Alan Southstand]

Superglued to his line for every set piece. He's in a bad run.

Lawlor must be coaching him.

Knee-Jerk.

it’s 3 games where he  has conceded and all because of his judgment not being positive.

He's also won us multiple games with his excellent saves and his distribution is usually excellent. He started the brilliant move that led to the winning goal in our last home game.

So I do think you are being knee-jerk. You can't chop and change the keeper around all the time for one mistake every now and then, it breeds a lack of confidence in your stoppers.

Butler was also at fault for the incident leading to the penalty today.

[phil old leake]

I suggested the same thing In a previous thread.  Lawlor was rested when his firm dipped.  When I suggested it I was mullered on here for being an idiot. I stand by it.   Give him a rest.  Comfy mode can be a bad thing

Christ can you imagine if de Gea had been dropped constantly when he was shite when he first rocked up in Manchester?

Are you saying that he is fine and not responsible for any part . Judgment his chirrational and needs to either come out and achieve or stay and let others do their job. Our defence needs attention as it’s gettung punished for mistakes that are avoidable.

[ravenrover]

My goodness 2 defeats and they are all back guns blazing, and talking boll@cks as usual and not just on this thread

If you can point out where I've said that, you have at it.

What I'm saying is, you don't just drop a keeper on the back of a f**k up. You've got to have faith in your number one. De Gea was f**king dreadful when he came over here, now he's considered by some to be the best. If Sir Alex had f**ked him off after a dodgy start, he'd probably be with Boro or something now. Not saying Marosi is going to be the world's greatest goalkeeper but that's one position you definitely can't just chop and change constantly.

[Campsall rover]

2 defeats and back to all the usual suspects with ridiculous kee jerk reactions. Nothing changes does it.
To all the doom and gloom merchants i say this. If we lose the next 2 league games against Rochdale away and Gillingham at home then i can understand cause for concern.
Yesterday was a freek result. 7 times out of 10 we would have won that match 3-1
On 2 occasions we would have at least drawn. Yesterday was the one when it all went wrong at both ends of the pitch.
It’s been a good start to the season and we would all have taken 6th after 12 games. Let’s see where we are at end of October. I think that will give a realistic indication of our where this season will take us.

[drfchound]

Superglued to his line for every set piece. He's in a bad run.

Before they scored the second header to go to 3-0 I was saying how good their corner taker was.
He was whipping the ball in with pace and at a good height to attack,right onto the six yard line.
It is virtually impossible for a keeper to go and try to get to a ball like that.

[johnny rovers]

For there second goal why did we have three players on the half way line when defending a corner. We had nobody on either post. If we did I don't think they would of scored the goal.

My mate said to me when we left 3 up that’ll confuse them cue foot going in mouth

[drfchound]

Quite often this season we have left three players up when the opposition have had a corner.
We haven’t conceded previously when doing this.

[roversdude]

True hound only in the Fleetwood game we forgot how to mark players - they were good corners but to allow 2 free headers was criminal.
Could not fault Marosi for any of the goals however

[Donnywolf]

Christ can you imagine if de Gea had been dropped constantly when he was shite when he first rocked up in Manchester?

We know what would have happened - he would have become a boo boy as did Etheridge

Hounded just because his first Interview on DROS was not to peoples liking and then after a few mistakes his confidence already low was shot by the reactions of a small minority of the Fans of the very Team he was trying to make a name at ! 

[RoversAlias]

Fans shouldn't have got on his back after those mistakes he made but I don't think anyone "hounded" him for that interview. A few comments on the internet isn't exactly going to impact him, it's not like people went round his house to harass him demanding he take elecution lessons.

[Donnywolf]

Agreed to a degree.

Probably not "Hounded" but he was described on here as "a dope" amongst other things after that Interview (have a look back) but probably was too busy to look on here anyway - and that should not have troubled him greatly. We all screw up Public Speaking at times as I pointed out on that Thread

The main grief he got which was the most important in defining his Rovers "career" was due to the mistakes he made - and you are correct to say Fans should not have got on his back - as we are all supposed to be "Rovers"  after all

I couldn't disagree stronger with this..Marko has made a couple of mistakes but boy has he saved us on many occasions this season,and now you want to change him!!! Seriously??..Does the same apply to our defence who have also had a couple of bad games,maybe we should change them all too..
 I would care if Lawlor was shining in the development games but he hasn't been has he??   

[Alan Southstand]

The problem is, wc, no-one in the Development games are! That is the most worrying aspect of our sudden dip in form - who is going to come in and make us stronger/better?

Answers on a postage stamp?

[wing commander]

  Alan,i think we always knew that was our problem..Over the summer there was countless threads about the budget and the strength in depth of our squad.GM said he was happy with the depth of it and that confused most who had watches us last year..

   Of course the start we have had means that has been largely forgotten about until suddenly we lose a couple..And some of our bigger players seem to be losing form..This thread mentions Marosi but you could argue the same for Butler,Coppinger and Wilks over the last few games who have all been poor..

   For me,tonight I would play as many of the development squad as I could get away with,to rest the main players and too give someone the chance to shine and give gm options ..We have mostly stuck with the same 13 or so players this season,and although I haven't actually checked the stats,when we play Saturday then Saturday we do great,as soon as we go Saturday -Tuesday-Saturday we drop off...

[Alan Southstand]

Absolutely agree with your synopsis, wc, which is why I went on record prior to the Fleetwood game suggesting Copps should be left out and I was told Copps has been written off too many times in the past, etc.

We are now faced with a game on Saturday without our most influential midfield player and the loss of form, seemingly, of quite a few others.

I think the 4-3-3 system is ok whilst everyone is firing on all cylinders but when 1 or 2 start to wobble, the rest go down like dominoes. It's not an emergency yet, but it could soon turn into one, if we're not careful.
