Rovers vs Stockport Semi Final

[Filo]

Glad I didn’t waste my time going to watch this shit, we don’t look like scoring, this will end up 3 or 4 for Stockport

[bpoolrover]

Bailey needs to come on for Robinson, Hanlan for sharp and mols for Gibson

[Jersey Rover]

Not sure how but we’re only one down. Believe they don’t look that hot. Let’s see McCanns appetite for this game. Should be at least 4 subs at half time for me.Be a different game completely

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Wtf do we do in training ?

We can't even get a shot off when it's the most obvious thing an attacking player should do. How can you be caught in two minds??? Maybe Gibsons second mind is that of a refuse collector or an insurance salesman?

[ForsolongaRover]

Wtf do we do in training ?

It’s as though we only want to defend. is there no attacking strategy?

[dknward2]

Stockport look about four yards quicker to everything.

Zander keeping us in it, Maxwell our best player up to now, we need to get running at these and take a shot.

Apart from the 3rd minute shot by sharp don't think the Stockport keeper has done anything he could have sat in the away end.

Other teams are going to play us and want to play rush keeper as they have nothing to do.

[monkeytennis]

We just look so weak and slow. Not just physically but mentally as well. Always behind. Always slower to the ball. Always missing the opposing player running in behind. Always receiving the ball then taking a moment to decide what to do with it. It’s a worry that we don’t seem to have got any better over the last few months.

With the benefit of 45 minutes of hindsight. Its the wrong team selection. Although expected it was when i saw their line up.  Lucky to be still in it. Make the changes and we have chance. Otherwise we are out.

[robchester]

Changes needed Gibson has been non existent

[monkeytennis]

Subs should have been made before HT really. We’re lucky we aren’t 3-0 down or worse.

[Canadian Rover]

Changes needed Gibson has been non existent

He's been non existent for 98% of this season.

[keyser_soze]

Mols Bailey Hanlan & Senior coming on

[Barmby Rover]

Well Bailey and Mols on is a start. Fingers crossed for this half.

[Donnybax]

Surprised maxwell came off he was one of our only decent players

[Barmby Rover]

Hanlan on, that will change nothing, senior coming on might.

[Drover]

It only takes a second or a bit of magic to score at goal,come on Donny !

[GazDRFC]

Can't see where a goal is coming from, we just look blunt and clueless. Grants 'We're just focusing on ourselves' in every interview is just looking stupid now. We don't have a game plan or any considerable quality, so what exactly is it we're focusing on?

[Barmby Rover]

You are never out of it at 1-0. Just one good shot, COYR!!

[keith79]

Middleton lets himself down.
. Poor crossing

[IDM]

According to the BBC match ticker we just had 4 shots over a 5 minute period.

Yet no one is commenting on those chances.?

[Donnybax]

An utterly terrible performance

[bpoolrover]

It was always going to happen with that team selection

[Filo]

A first half team that was never going to get anything, we threw the first half away with that team selection

[Barmby Rover]

Just not good enough, a shame. Now to concentrate on staying up.

[Jersey Rover]

Yep agree with first half selections but we have some dead wood to clear out.

[ScillyRover]

Very disappointed in GM’s starting team selection. Made it an uphill battle for the second half. Better thereafter but it was always going to be difficult chasing the game against an organised Stockport side.

[Bessie Red]

Hanlan on, that will change nothing, senior coming on might.

Probably our best player 2nd half, caused thwir CB's some problems.

[Metalmicky]

What a wasted  2 hours that was.... very unimpressed with the team overall.
