TLOD v Cobblers

[swain_drfc]

Ref has lost control of this game.

On another note. Last kick of the first half and we are playing the free kick short? Why? That is so so poor.

[sha66y]

One of these teams is in 21st place and one is in 5th....

But im sure the excuses for this lacklustre performance will be numerous

The commentary team are seriously wearing rose tinted glasses....making abject mediocrity sound great...

[drfchound]

Again, that number four kicks the ball away right in front of the ref and the useless get doesn’t book him.
Also he should take action against the player who dived to try and win a pen just before half time.
Even Bogle said “what is he doing”.

[Prez]

Well that summed it up. Chance to put ball in the box with no time left and instead we play it wide ffs.

[EasyforDennis]

When referees let players get away with so much cheating and kicking the ball away I'm afraid they don't deserve any respect.

[Bollinger]

cheating bas**rds this lot

Not surprising....it’s just clicked that their caretaker boss is the same John Brady that used to ponce about in an Alice Band for Rushden & Diamonds who were masters of gamesmanship under Brian Talbot.

[sha66y]

Do you think the ref is good then and are Northampton players diving or not.

[goalkick]

We have not looked promotion candidates for some time.difficult to see where a goal is coming from.Amos on for John, he is winning nothing.

[i_ateallthepies]

We need a piece of Coppinger magic to unlock them.  Job done.

[Metalmicky]

This league is crazy....

That is an excuse for us not being able to play round them or through them.....I am not seeing a team I support playing better than the team we are playing....
The ref is their to do a job, he will make mistakes, players will dive....they are only important when you are looking for any reason to justify the possibility of defeat....
All I can see is Northampton attacking better than us and defending better than us with a team 16 places lower than us....

Dont you think that two bad decisions by officials cost us dearly at Crewe.

[drfchound]

Copps on.

[NickDRFC]

Looking pretty attacking now, will be great when we’re on the ball but I fear for us without it.

[swain_drfc]

Positive change from Butler. Let’s hope it pays off

[NickDRFC]

Ifollow’s so crap sometimes it’s laughable. Replay of a Reece James daisy cutter from midway through the first half just shown

[tommy toes]

Martin Woods scores a penalty for Halifax.
Goal must have been 30 feet high..

[drfchound]

We look so vulnerable when teams play high balls into our box.

[Barmby Rover]

Copps on and a chance created COYR!!!!!!

[bobjimwilly]

they've shown a few replays from 1st half in this 2nd half?

[bobjimwilly]

we're looking more lively this 2nd half

[drfchound]

Not many options available to Butts to get some urgency on the pitch.

Dont you think that two bad decisions by officials cost us dearly at Crewe.

I think that they outplayed us in every area of the pitch...
I think we looked like a team jst above the drop zone....
When a team is in the top 6 it tends to have something about it that makes it special.........in our case it’s been huge amounts of luck, and a tendency to flatter to deceive....

Yes we have won many games, but we have only really outclassed maybe a handful of those teams........
the only excuse for losing is by not being as good as your opposition....

Goals change games and poor decisions by officials influenced the outcome at Crewe.

He’s not a doncaster fan, you only have to read a couple of his posts to realise that.
People just need to ignore him

Things are not as bad as that, it would be remarkable to be lucky for 33 matches, There is some quality in Rovers, but we are struggling today.
