V poor defending for that goal. They're sharp on the break.

Not too impressed with their defending, they're big and quick but defenitely vulnerable.

We can get back in this, and then it's down to fitness and belief.

I reckon we’ve been the better team outside the two boxes easily. Need to practise our corners and free kicks. palace mostly offering set plays every ball they put in is hard to defend

My eyesight maybe. I was sure the clock on the replay of the goal showed it later, but maybe that was 'real' time.

The difference is quality is apparent. That’s not a negative. Second goal was quality by Milvojevic, who is making Palace tick. First goal was lucky.

A real uphill struggle for us but we get an early goal... who knows. You know Palace will try and nick a third to try and kill the game which leaves them open possibly?

Woy might be tempted to take some of his important players off.

Either way, an important half time talk. We’ve certainly not been embarrassed.

Come on!

We've been alright but our final ball and their movement around the box sees us behind. Bit more incisive we'd be winning.

We need something to happen - a goal or a sending off for Palace....

It’s a real shame that Wilkes is suspended. He’d be at these defenders.

All to play for - kicking towards the south stand.

Set piece delivery has been poor overall for us. Need to be more precise and get defenders on the deliveries.

Been a bit toothless around their area, snatching at the final pass.
Been a bit careless with the ball at times.

On the plus side, Eilidh Barbour looks fine....

May is really struggling today.

I'd like to see a change............ Sadlier?

PDX_Rover · « **Reply #44 on** February 17, 2019, 05:12:05 pm by PDX_Rover »

Or maybe Boocock?

PDX_Rover · « **Reply #45 on** February 17, 2019, 05:13:19 pm by PDX_Rover »

If Alfie left that header it’s 1-2. Copps close there.

We've got a second half to make history, come on Rovers!

Metalmicky · « **Reply #47 on** February 17, 2019, 05:19:49 pm by Metalmicky »

Rowe and Sadlier to come on....

PDX_Rover · « **Reply #48 on** February 17, 2019, 05:28:53 pm by PDX_Rover »

I’m be tempted to take Alfie off and give Boocock a run out - throw the dice.

Not been at it today sadly. Final delivery missing every time. Love the Alfie May story but frankly he just isn’t good enough. Thought Crawford was the best player before being pulled off

Metalmicky · « **Reply #50 on** February 17, 2019, 05:35:32 pm by Metalmicky »

We've had the better of it this half. We're ding all right here - without causing them any major problems...

Was surprised at the subs. May should have been taken off, don’t think Copps was at his best today (and was actually unusually sloppy) but unless he was knackered I’d have kept him on purely because he’s capable of a game changing moment.

Got to disagree - Kane looks excellent and will play in the Premiership...

They’ve managed the game well. Letting us have plenty of the ball and still been solid in defence. I’m not sure they’ve even got out of third gear - think it shows the gulf between the PL and the rest.

Really flat feel to the game now. Like watching a friendly.

Love Herbie but he’s been a bit sloppy today. A good marker for him to see where he’s at though.

Palace have seemed happy to let us play. They are very well organized. We've not played bad but the difference in quality is obvious.
A fair few sloppy passes as well. Agree with above Herbie hasn't been at it today for me.

ScillyRover · « **Reply #57 on** February 17, 2019, 05:44:04 pm by ScillyRover »

Alfie May disappointing. Surprised we didn’t sub him but not many options on the bench other than Boocock who is a bit of an unknown.

jm291 · « **Reply #58 on** February 17, 2019, 05:45:58 pm by jm291 »

Agreed on Herbie, was expecting a lot from him today and just looked untidy in possession. Shame but Palace managed the game very well. Malik a huge miss instead of Alfie.

Metalmicky · « **Reply #59 on** February 17, 2019, 05:46:17 pm by Metalmicky »

We have barely been under any sort of pressure - but also not done enough to win.. Money in the bank - let's move forward..
