I think the main positive is that most teams below us lost as well. So we've had a bad night but nobody in the relegation places has gained any ground. Also those 2 late goals meant the goal difference hasn't taken too much of a hit.

But we have slipped back a place and a point closer to the drop.

Sorry, just seen Oldham won so 21st now has 34 points rather than 33. Still, could have been worse!

Good on him, and good on you for going to the game.
Have a safe journey home and keep the faith!

we are doing the same thing for 3 seasons on the trop.
I like him as a bloke but he is not good for us.

Not sure you can say a relegation season and a promotion season are the same thing

idler · « **Reply #14 on** February 13, 2018, 11:11:16 pm by idler »

They did both contain unexpected worrying slumps though.
One got us relegated and the other cost us an almost nailed on Championship.
Whichever way you look at it, it happened.

dickos1 · « **Reply #15 on** February 13, 2018, 11:13:22 pm by dickos1 »

Slumps yes
But both very different, one was just four defeats after promotion was sealed.
The other was a mid season slump where we went around 16 games Gaining very few points.

idler · « **Reply #16 on** February 13, 2018, 11:18:17 pm by idler »

I'm just worried that we might be about to experience our third slump though.
Off to bed now to try and dream of a happier game next time out.

4-0 with minutes to go could have gone 5-0 and a drop of 5 in the goal difference

but the 2 goals made it a mere drop of 2 goals

and Rochdale losing from a winning position means they are now bottom and all those games to play in such a short time win them all and they would only be level with Rovers

checking we have one of the best goal differences of the relegation possibles (rochdale have to squeeze 5 games in - can the squad take it unlikely)

maybe oldham beating mk might be a good result (oldham got 2-0 up against Blackburn - so sadly they look like staying up )-- keeps the gap wide

rochdale 18 games to play aginst Rovers mere 13 that's a hell of a lot can see domino losing sequence coming for them after the tv hype ??

very funny UNKNOWLEDGABLE betting odds on relegation
more bookies to price up but Rovers 14/1 tops at the moment was 40/1 a few games ago

The only positive I want is it wants to be the last time we play three at the back. And Coppinger needs to play every minute to the end of the season.

Positive from tonight was McCulloch our best player just a pity he wasn’t used in midfield.
If he had been in midfield with Rowe, Blair and Houghton then we may well have got a draw or even won. We lost the game in midfield. The two new lads at centre back did nothing wrong.
All Lawler did all night was pick the ball out of the net 4 times.
Not one save to make other than the goals and none of them looked saveable.

drfchound · « **Reply #21 on** February 14, 2018, 10:24:43 am by drfchound »

Positives:
We didn’t miss the pen.
Copps proved yet again how valuable he is to us.
That is about it.

why didn't coppinger start tonight?

Because he can't play 46 games a season anymore, we should n't really be having to rely on a 37 year old player to keep digging us out of the hole we seem to create every game

nortikorner · « **Reply #24 on** February 14, 2018, 12:11:20 pm by nortikorner »

No the right way he should play from the start then sub him he than as more time to recover for the next game

dear boy you just missed the obvious - just saw the goals and no goal was scored from a CORNER that's progress - one in a row

IDM · « **Reply #27 on** February 14, 2018, 01:29:56 pm by IDM »

I wasn't there so the only positive I can take is that we got a couple of goals to help the goal difference.

felt sorry for marquis, he came over to apologies, only to receive loads of abuse, he was not soley to blame for the shambles. 2 really poor performance over the last couple of games, lets go and beat fleetwood.

Beat Fleetwood hmmmm we could not beat a set of dustbins at the min
