Christ - that was proper crap wasn’t it. 22:37 - Feb 20 with 4827 viewstextbackup

Seriously lucky it was against a team with very little quality.

That second half was easily the worst I think I’ve seen us under KM, players who are normally calm and good under pressure completely went to sht.

Thank god that’s one ticked off

And we can hopefully build on another win Saturday. With results going our way tonight too!


We’ll be good again... one day

Passing around at the back for 10 mins before passing forwards is ok when we are dominating a team but when teams rush us we fall apart and more teams are doing that. If we do not adjust our system we will go on another drawing losing run imo.

Our system got us to third in the table 18 points off 7th after 33 games. We’ve played four games in 11 days taking 10/12 points.

Why would we ‘adjust our system’? Maybe play like Rotherham? How about McCarthy style three defensive midfielders and play every point is a prisoner? Ardiles style 0-0-10 formation? Nope leave well alone. Carry on doing what has served us so well for a year.

We will not be at our best every game. Players tire, get injured, out of form. It happens. But don’t change what’s worked so well for so long.

Edit: in 48 games since the Bristol Rovers draw 14 Feb 23 we’ve amassed 110 points. 33 of those games have been in the Championship. Mental.

We've lost 4 games all season, don't be a melt. We don't fall apart when teams press us, that's just bobbins. Last night was a bad day at the office, it happens, but we still found a way to win. If you listen to some of our fans you'd think we're in a relegation scrap rather than sitting on 69 points from 33 games and bang in the automatic promotion race.

The Rotherham press was very good and brave as I mentioned above but ultimately we cut through it three times (four if you want to be generous) with relative ease when needed.

I think tired bodies and complacency were much bigger issues than anything stylistic yesterday.

Yeah, I made this point on another thread. If we were fresher, I think it could have been a cricket score.

I hope more teams come at us like that as I feel we will punish them. Makes it much easier for our game plan than the ten men behind the ball stuff.
