Is there a secret rule?
« on August 25, 2012, 07:00:11 pm by Donnylass »
that says during a Rovers game only the opposition is allowed to tackle.

And that if by some miracle we do put in a half hearted tackle then has to be blown for a foul.  :headbang:

Please re arrange these words 'Hit Couldn't Barn Door A'

On a positive we know they can play better, so onwards and upwards  :scarf: :woohoo:

What game were you at? Plenty of tackles going in. Really pisses me off when we lose and all people say is its a lack of effort. The players, with the exception of Coterhill were all trying. Just not happening for them today. Playing a team on the back of 2 promotions who all know each others game. Not that hard to believe that we couldn't break them down is it? New team, these results will happen.

Even Cotts was trying, he was just even more shit than the rest!

Same game as you.
I never said they didn't put in any effort. I just thought that they seemed to back off from tackling and let Crawley push forward without much resistance from us, which is why they eventually scored.

Nope. Watching people killing songs on X Factor.

But when it comes to football, that's what you're doing, cause you certainly aint clapping and singing and supporting the lads  :P

Thought we did put in a few tackles actually, especially M. Woods with a few sliding tackles. Effort was there but not quality.

Women  :facepalm:

FEW being the operative word. If we had tackled more and got the ball off them, they wouldn't have been able to boss us all over the pitch.

Men  :facepalm:

Ignore them male chauvinist pigs lovey. Don't worry your pretty little head about it sweetheart. You make a good point. What you have to realise is that men can only think about one thing at a time and most of the time it's not football that's on their mind.

You make my point about men only being able to think about one thing at a time and most of the time it's not football (or beer). I'm sure Donnylass would agree with me that you could have (not 'of') phrased your reply a little better given the context of the debate.

That`s strange, when mjg logs off, you log on about 30 seconds later!
