Video of the red card incident. Sorry but the way the player went down is not consistent with the way the shirt was pulled. I'm telling you now that we will see this on our players every other game and a free kick won't be given for this. Yeah he was holding his shirt but not for him to fall down like he did. He conned the ref in my opinion.

It was never a red card.

 

[Captain Jack Sparrow]

I watched the 2nd half on sky plus. I missed the first half unfortunately. We did ok I thought in the 2nd half. Apparently we were a lot better in the 1st half too so we are making progression. 4 at the back is better for us. 2nd half we got back into the game. Then brought on Moore and went defensive with 5 at the back and we concede 2 goals.

We absolutely need to play four at the back and we have to try to play on the front foot a bit more, to be fair it sounds like we were better against the Spirites but we absolutely must improve our game for the visit of Oldham on Tuesday.

Daniel Hargraves saying the crowd looks sparse for a league game, wonder why

Oldham have kicked off shooting towards the South stand

 

[Captain Jack Sparrow]

Ref is called James Oldham. We are facing Oldham. I don't like the sound of this.

3rd minute Rovers corner which was cleared

 

[Captain Jack Sparrow]
