If you read this, sorry mate but your lack of effort was unacceptable today and won't make you popular with us Gasheads. When you came you were chasing everything but already you seemed to have lost interest. There is only one way you can go if you don't work harder. Take a look at SS for inspiration, if this is what you lack. Just trying to be constructive.

Can’t argue with anything in your post, infact his lethargic display when he came on was the only disappointing part of the teams overall performance. |

I noticed not long after he came on today DC was giving him a right rollicking for not tracking back.
Looks to me as though he is over weight and for a big guy does not win enough in the air.

He looked over weight, disinterested and totally ineffective. Don’t think DC was too pleased.

Should have been substituted himself for that display.
No way should he start the next game as do sent deserve to wear the quarters after that pathetic display.
Please get Sinclair to show him how you play for the gas - a guy that nearly scored a goal after a determined run when waiting to be substituted as injured. A true inspiration.

Spelling Stefan's name right might motivate him. 😉

I think he deserves our support, or is he going to be the next player everyone slags off? He was poor when he came on but how can Slagging him off help his confidence.

I think sometimes, especially when you're not the quickest, you can come on in the middle of a high tempo game and just not be able to get into it. I wouldn't want to blame it on a lack of effort so readily.

He just didn’t look fit, he was slow, his touch poor and his passing wayward. Missed an absolute guilt edged chance when it was put on a plate from Clarke too.

I wouldn't want to blame it on a lack of effort so readily. Did you watch the game? I can’t remember ever slagging off a player on this or any forum or [out loud] at a game- and that is a challenge to all the forumers who like to dig up old posts, in fact I am a proper rose tinter, but his performance this afternoon was nothing short of an embarrassment. We would have done better had a player been sent off then at least we would actually have taken the initiative to reorganise ourselves for playing as a ten. |

I think rodman,payne and upson are all very short of confidence right now and in rodman and paynes case they have reacted by not really wanting or demanding the ball.
Upson has not been shy to get on the ball like payne/rodman but hasnt really performed yet for rovers.
I believe all 3 can and will do much better for rovers,hopefully sooner rather than later.

I wouldn't want to blame it on a lack of effort so readily. You say that as though that was the first game he has been like that. It isn't. Every game His last few games I have seen he's been were like that and as I said before the game, I wouldn't of minded if it was him dropped instead of Nichols and that proved to be the case (I thought Nichols was ineffective too though by the way). |

The thing that frustrates me the most is he often doesn't leave the ground and challenge for headers. Even if you know you aren't going to win the ball at least challenge and make it difficult for the defender. Needs to lose a few pounds and do a lot better all round.

Rodman has been a disastrous signing so far and looks disinterested. Payne looks overweight, lethargic and lazy. Upson has looked poor but could just be a confidence thing with him and he is a bit slow. Not one of those players gets into our first 11 for me though. |

Diabolical performance.
Looked good in his first game but he should have been ashamed at his perrformance today.
He will get away with it to some degree as we’re dostracted by a number of players who put in a MOTM performance today. Which is fantastic to see - about 4 names were reeled off on 20mans radio show after the match

I actually recommended Payne to Rovers after seeing him for Dover. He chased everything, had a great touch and knew where the net was. Not sure what has happened to him since his first game. Like Rodman he looks a shadow of the player ive seen before.
