It was Nixon almost marking the guy that scored, but we had allowed them to cross the ball also.

Thought he looked a solid, did little wrong and got stuck in where needed, could be a good signing, let’s see.

He reminds me of a left foot version of Matt Mills.
Very impressed with his first showing for us.

I said exactly the same earlier. Particularly watching him aim for the long cross field pass

Looks like we have a very good player on our hands. Be hot property if he carries on how he’s started. Defo a league if not 2 above us.

Looks calm and in control, looks like he could of been playing there all season, slotted in well and can string a pass too.

Missing link to me is a fit and strong defender who will put their body on the line to play next to him.

Wish GM would tell us what's the score with giving Faulkner a run out. If he never plays we will never know.

Almost scored with a very good header too.
He will be a threat in the opponents box from free kicks and corners.

Contributed to the goal being out of position and Wyke capitalised on the space he left. Olowu could have perhaps done better but he was on his own centrally and the crosser had all the time in the world to pick out Wyke. Olowu was exception in general tonight though. He gets plenty of stick but he was very good on the ball.

He was pulled put of position trying to cover for Rowe who had wandered, the space the crosser had was criminal.

I am firmly in Joe Olowu camp but by his own standards he wasn't great tonight.

Slotted straight and had looked right at home. How long’s his contract???

I’d just like to apologise to Matt Mills on behalf of the rovers fans that compared McGrath to him. Fair hair is where the similarities end.

Should have been screaming at Rowe to sit in all afternoon. Wasn’t helped by the fact he was abandoned by what should be an experienced pro

Doesn't help he's playing next to a LB whose legs went 2 years ago and a CB with the attention span of a 2 year old

Maxwell was on the bench, if he’s not fit he shouldn’t be on the bench, I said it last game Rowe should not play left back, goes on walkabouts too many times

He shouldn't play at all he's gone and has done for a few years now

Olowu was horrific today. He’s meant to have physical attributes. A player like Madden should not winning duels against him.
