Coburn even won a free kick! Refs are warming to us at last.
Great result considering we were toothless for much of it. Easily the better side, just lacking a bit of belief. The ball doesn't stick up top for as long as it used to.. we seem to have lost some of the intricate 'back to goal' play from pre-xmas. That's largely to do with Evans no longer giving and going, and no EA to give and run off. Sadly all 3 of our CFs need wing play to flourish and we don't really play that way. Coburn and Loft especially..these guys want wingers driving the ball in from wide areas.
Our midfield were too clever for Fleetwood today. That team are 1D so couldn't live with the triangles and possession stuff.
We can relax now and will probably see some great results through to the season end.

Get in gas. Should be safe now With Accrington still having to play Cambridge, 1 more win will see us mathematically safe (or 1 defeat for either)

Fleetwood fans I've just spoken to said they should have had a blatent pen. Too far away to tell where I was but as it was Rooney involved I had my doubts

Got a feeling we’ll really upset the top of the table apple cart over these last few games. We’ve got a good side that plays better when teams don’t sit back and there’ll be pressure on them and not on us.

Fully deserved that win, back 4 all excellent again can't remember a Fleetwood shot on target bar the goal. Struggled a bit to create too many clear cut chances especially 1st half but 3 points takes us to the magic 52 and we can relax. Some great games to look forward to now with no pressure on us at all. A 6 point Easter, we'll done Joey & the boys

What a game mind!! Hell of a comeback against a poor Cod mob, Wardy was class throughout and what a goal 😍😍 6 Easter points Rovers, beautiful!

Pre-match commentary by Cod Army correspondent suggested that we might have a difficult afternoon.
The Fleetwood side sounded a tough and strong side.
Spent large amounts on both signings and wages, particularly in the forward area of the pitch.
The Cod Army correspondent stated: "best signing by Scott Brown is the keeper, Jay Lynch." Totally agree.
We were tentative, sloppy and lacked aggression in the first half.
Only slightly better in the second half. But Fleetwood?!#
At this stage in the season the three points are everything.
One more point will be priceless.
Some cracking games left now.

We deserved it on the second half display. I thought overall we understandably look a bit leggy and lack that sharpness we had earlier in the season. Collins is a prime example in that he doesn’t ever really look like beating his man at the moment whereas he was gliding past people for fun before Christmas. Coburn also looks less mobile but I thought he did really well today when he came on. Loft too. Proper shifts. I thought that in the second half we upped the tempo and really gutsed it out. Fleetwood didn’t have the answers, whereas in the first half every time they attacked they looked dangerous. A bit fortunate with Grant’s cross going in but I think we deserve a bit of luck. UTG!

Better side today and deserved the win, didn't deserve to go in at half time one down but the got our re-WARD in the second half. No need to look over our shoulders in the table anymore, really looking forward to the Derby game and another three points. Would like to see us sign Ward and Gibson on permanent contracts for next season.

I don't think it was a penalty, he fell down to make it look like his are was pulled, that's how I saw it That must’ve been when he fell over with no one near him and HE handled the ball🤣🤣 It looked like Gibson possibly pulled back his arm but he then made a meal of it when it looked like the ball was going to run out of play. One of those decisions which could have gone either way, Rooney was fortunate not to get a second yellow once the ref decided it wasn't a pen.

When they couldn't get through Bogarde Ward and Finley (who were all excellent) they really tried to work on Hoole, when they realised that didn't work, they then switched to Gorden and he stood up to them manfully. Defensively we were supurb today, defending as a team. That was a very experienced forward line we played against today, with lots of goals between them.

Too far away to tell where I was but as it was Rooney involved I had my doubts I thought it was a penalty from the ifollow angle I must admit. I thought Shaun Rooney was excellent today as he was at the Mem. Wouldn’t mind seeing him in the quarters next season.
