Yep you were right, but you wrote the team off at the start of the game....and it’s only the third game of the season....no need to be smug... You've never predicted we will lose? We had Pisano at centre back and Plymouth had pretty much their first team out....or so I was led to believe. You seem to like talking to me on here. Fancy a pint so we can talk in real life?

If our back ups can’t perform against Plymouth then that has to be slightly concerning surely. Why? Its a one off game. Should Man Utd fans be concerned because what was a strong side from them lost to us last season? They have much more depth than we do. This was a game where we werent at our best, and the better side still lost. 3 minutes ago, INCRED said: Thought we played well especially last 20 when we really ramped it up and the run of the ball just wouldn’t fall for us. On another night could have been 4 or 5 but it happens like that sometimes Last 20 minutes we were dominant. Until then we were too slow when working our attacks and (first half mainly) very sloppy on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Macey left Rovers for Arsenal as a youngster and, I believe, played (or was certainly on the bench) in one of their recent European Championship matches - he is a very promising goalkeeper and is currently on loan to Plymouth. I am not sure why @RedDave is subject to any criticism for his comments (about MM). Dont worry, he likes to pick on me. I find it flattering.

petehinton Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Couldve been there all night and not scored said it over and over, but Matty Taylor is a League One striker.

If our back ups can’t perform against Plymouth then that has to be slightly concerning surely. Tonight was a chance for others to shine and force their way into the first 11. Having not been there, I can't comment on individual performances, but the stats don't look good. All those shots/corners, and no goals. Was it quite as bad as the comments suggest? A loss in the cup to Plymouth isn't that disappointing, but if nobody showed they were up for it, then that's a big problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviestevieneville Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 And I’ve just explained . The first season he wasn’t up to speed but he was influential from the start of last season until he got injured at hull. You say , take a game by the scruff of the neck. How many players in any team do that at this level ? He’s still a developing player. As I said he’s just coming back from injury , try engaging brain before making yourself look stupid . @MC RISK77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No denying it’s a one off game, but it should have been an opportunity to get a win under our belts, I, as others are, remain concerned about the 4 wins in 27 and I must admit that I am not too confident that ratio won’t increase in the wrong way in the next couple of games.

With regard to replacement we have until 31st August. ... and we knew at least a month before he left that he was going. No worries though. Out the cup and two points out of six. Don’t want to rush anyone or have a sense of urgency. No doubt MA/ the scouts are investing all their efforts to sort out the keeper situation and that’s taken about four months and counting.

ChippenhamRed Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 14 minutes ago, KeepUpLino said: How the **** is he still our manager? Because overall he is in credit and his team has finished higher each season he has been here, despite a relatively modest budget compared to many rival teams. And his record at this club - all in the second tier - is up there with any manager in our history over that last 30 years. I’m not pretending the form since Christmas has been anything other than hugely disappointing, but that’s at least partly due to the excellent period that preceded it, which Johnson was also responsible for. Neither am I saying I would have lost much sleep had he left in the summer. But if you actually want an answer to the question, it’s not hard to find reasons why he remains in charge.

Yep believe it or not 67 games in two years he has done very little that is more than enough game time to contribute a lot more than he has happy to have a get for charity that his record will not improve this year.
