I’m afraid that it’s time for DC to sort this out or leave. Five defeats on the trot, including three at home, is unacceptable.
Don’t want to be pessimistic but with nine players unavailable I can’t see us getting anything from today’s fixture with such a threadbare squad.
I really hope the lads prove me wrong but I have a horrible feeling that it’s going to be six on the trot in the league

Scored by Isaac Heath assisted by Whalley
Bristol live no longer seem cover the Rovers matches anymore
Daniel and Malachi left and so did the coverage, just found the link Will Murray is the new man
Just read that Lockyer was booked now it's been changed to Chang in the 23rd minute and followed by Forde in the 26th minute for a challenge on their keeper

Yes, it appears that they’re not replacing the Rovers journalist so we have very little local press coverage of our team. Very disappointing from what used to be a decent local paper.
No sub GK again hope they don't injure our keeper
Wright their GK is down match delayed game resumed in the 28th minute
Thought I read that we were looking at an ex MU striker who was a free agent but seems to have disappeared of the radar
When we have lost this match we will be below Stanley on GD
A corner to Rovers resulted in the ball falling to Chang whose shot was cleared off the line in the38th minute and a minute later Southam - Hales shot cleared the crossbar
42nd minute a Heath shot blocked by Negru
Accrington putting some strong challenges on Cavegn the lates resulting in a free kick 45th minute
3 minutes of extra time to be played
HT Accrington 1 - 0 Rovers

Rovers had 58% possession in the first half but Heath's shot was the only shot on target
HT change for Rovers Sotirou on Bilongo off
48th minute Walton shoots over the bar
DC has tweaked the line up Cavegn playing wide on the left with Sotiriou and Harrison in the middle
As the table stands Rovers 3 points above the relegation zone in 20th position
54th minute Cavegn puts on over the bar before the flag went up for off side
56th minute a crucial block from Lockyer prevents a good Accrington chance
Think we need 2 things in the next transfer window a larger squad and a couple of FIT STRIKERS who know where the net is
Plymouth match did wonders for Conteh he has just got the equaliser in the 59th minute
Accrington 1 - 1 Rovers

62nd minute Ward yellow carded for a foul out on the right wing
65th minute a long throw finds Forde but is cleared before he can shoot
67th minute Luke Thomas on Harrison off
Southam - Hales long throws causing problems for Accrington maybe a goal to come from one of them
72nd minute Rawson scores Accrington 2 - 1 Rovers Murray saying against the run of play but if you strikers know where the net is they will score goals, momentum has changed back in Accrington's favour, Rovers looking tired
77th minute Sinclair scores Accrington 3 - 1 Rovers

3-1 game over.
When we appointed DC I honestly didn’t think we’d be in a relegation battle before the end of November.

Maybe we should start looking for a replacement for him
82nd minute Sotiriou shoots over from close range
86th minute a pair of Sparkes set pieces cleared by Accrington running out of time again
7 minutes added time to be played
90+1 Lockyer heads Sparkes corner over the bar
445 gas heads made todays trip to Accrington
Accrington free kick 90 + 5 minutes think we are going to lose this one
According to will Murray we have 2 minutes to score 2 goals to get a draw
And it's all over now Accrington 3 - 1 Rovers 6th consecutive defeat in the league

81st minute Sparkes shot deflected out for a corner which resulted in another set piece which was cleared by Cheltenham who now appear to be defending in depth
83rd minute Mola concedes a free kick
4 minutes plus extra time to get the goals to either draw or win the match
7 minutes extra time to be played
90+3 corner to Rovers which is cleared and in the 90+4th minute Conteh is booked another defeat coming up the seventh in a row
90+6 th minute Issaka shot is blocked and Mola fires over from 20 yards out
FT Cheltenham 1 - 0 Rovers
We need some serious money spent in the next transfer window, a striker who can score goals and some attacking players to create chances for them and soe defenders who can defend
Following Will Murray's commentary on Bristol Live I think Southwood only had to pick the ball out of the net, didn't have a save to make in the whole game
