Its been shown time and time again that your opinion is of little value.
What an arrogant fool you are.
Tell you what, my opinions are a whole lot better than yours matey.

The fact that Drinan went off at half time injured and Agyei didn't replace him shows how far he is away from being able make an impact in this team. I wouldn't expect anything from him until January at the very earliest, and will probably take another month or so of playing regularly to really get up to speed.

Better off having Barry Manilow as the set piece coach 🫢
I’d put him up front on tonight’s showing

That’s fine by me, slow n steady wins the race.
Take Dec to build his match fitness and more importantly, his confidence back up and slowly increase his game time to 30, 45, 60mins, then after busy Xmas period we will reap the benefit of having a fit, strong and confident Dan Agyei ready to start games and play 75/90 mins, in Jan 💪🏻💪🏻

Happy to boast you illegally watched the game for free? It is people like you who think it is ok to steal, and then complain about crime and tax evasion.

I wasn't able to watch the game tonight but by going by all your comments it sounds like we got lucky tonight . I can't help feeling tonight's lucky point was the point we should have got against Lincoln last week . The one thing that's crystal clear is we need to strengthen our forward line . Until we do that we're going to struggle to score goals . Saying that I like the look of Dan Agyei and look forward to seeing him play when he's fully match fit .

Our eleven corners tonight means that we have now had over 100 corners this season and only scored one goal - and that thanks to a goalkeeping howler. Our set piece coach really is doing a magnificent job.

Just watched the highlights, was our press that lethargic all game or clips not a fair reflection of the game overall?

We pressed well enough, rovers barely had the ball. They would break quickly though and got at our back line more times than a team with 35% possession should.

Slow and steady, if they went any slower they would be going backwards, nothing new there then apart from sideways.

Because our defence is weak & we concede way to easily, They arent poor players, but are lacking in coherent defensive shape.
