[Pancho Regan]

Come on lads, we know this team has the quality, resilience and guts to come back from behind.

Come on you Reds!

Me and my big mouth .......

[PDX_Rover]

Well. Massive test now. The doomsayers will be out on force on here tonight.


Come on Rovers.

[bpoolrover]

Some of the defending is diabolical

[Barmby Rover]

4 changes, if we can get this back to a draw it will be a great result. Not confident.

[drfchound]

Bit of a wake up call for some of the over the top posters this week…

It has been crackers how over confident some have been.

[DonnyOsmond]

Game and unbeaten run over.

[bpoolrover]

Going forward we look good thou

[jmt23]

We’ve been a yard behind them all game to be fair, partly due to their play, but more so due to the way we are playing - it’s not clicking correctly.

[ncRover]

Does Gibson offer that in-behind threat Haks did?

[Colemans Left Hook]

oh ye of little faith

my 50 squid @1.84 is in the bin then ?

[PDX_Rover]

Rovers+ stream has been buffering a lot today. Annoying.

[scawsby steve]

I said in pre-season that our defence still has the same old problems.

It certainly doesn't look a title winning defence.

Where do you think the weaknesses are at the back?

[Copps is Magic]

Very dissapointing response from Rovers, I must say. Offering nothing - game is petering out.

[Barmby Rover]

Rovers still have more shots on goal than Newport, they have made theirs count.

[Wiltshire Exile]

Down to 8th!   

[DonnyOsmond]

How's the keeper been?

[nice one rovers]

How's the keeper been?

He’s let 3 in.

[Drover]

oh ye of little faith

Its isnt not having faith. Its responses to conceding straight after the break again.
Should we say "yes thats ok, we dont mind conceding"
Grant will be fuming for that.

Who switched off this time?

Moly got tackled and they broke away and scored,I thought fouled but cannot be sure without seeing replays/better angle and it was right under ref's nose so maybe it was'nt a foul,that may have been harsh on us,as for the other 2 goals,we was barely coping in midfield defensively and when he took Broadbent off and put Sbarra on,that gave Newport the ability to find more space pushing forward,they are a strong side,able to hold the ball well in tackles.

I don't know about personnel, but we're still not cutting crosses out, or defending headers.

I suppose if Louis had been playing, he'd have got the blame today. However, I don't know what TSL was like with the 3 goals.

[PDX_Rover]

How's the keeper been?

He’s let 3 in.

To be fair. He had no chance with the first two.

[DonnyOsmond]

That doesn't tell me if he's done well or not.

Agree. Broadbent was playing fine. Should have stayed on.

[scawsby steve]

What is it with us and Newport? Do they sing the stirring Welsh anthem before the game and scare the shit out of our players?

Our lads got eyes on Everton again?

[drfchound]

Everton 3-0 down at home today.

[BentleyBorn]

I looked in at half time and thought good!

What the f has happened since the interval? Sour lemons instead of the normal orange slice?

5 shots on target, 3 have gone in.
