    Well, we had one decent shot on target apart from the goal. We don't seem to be defending as a team and can't seem to keep the ball...

    .... cant pass, cant cross, defence fannying around with the ball - all that adds pressure. still no creativity and looking very poor in final 3rd. i remember hearing a few times from the commentators yesterday that there just aint no service for the strikers. just not learnt from last few seasons.

    The second goal was a calamity of errors... two sliced attempts at clearances before the own goal. The first resulted from a terrible defensive header. And time after time the ball was given away needlessly resulting in attempts on our goal....

    we were our own worse enemy. every chance they had was down to silly stupid errors by us.

    when you have a defence that commits suicide and a midfield that cant keep the ball and cant create any chances along with strikers who cant score then you are in massive trouble.

    I know this is their own highlights, so may be a bit biased, but they look much better than us...

    Their goalkeeper has made 650 appearances for them...

    That second goal in all honesty was an absolute calamity, no many positives for the Rovers boys to take out of that. Manager seems clueless to me...
