Jaakkola 7 - beginning to look the part
Davies 7.5 - a few errors but has been a good buy and mainly solid Craig 8 - totally in control Kilgour 7 - a few mistakes in the first half but overall a strong performance
Hare 8 - amazing energy and good crosses Clarke 7.5 - best game for a while. Did brilliantly to set up the third goal Upson 7.5 - superb goal Ogogo 9.0 - was absolutely everywhere. Amazing energy especially in the heat. Won lots of 50:50 balls Leahy 6.5 - did ok. Not as good defensively as Hare.
Smith 5.5 - the lad tried hard but looked very lightweight Clarke-Harris 7 - great goal.
Subs: Adeboyejo 5 - did not bring much to the game. Nichols 7 - good goal and looked dangerous Rodman NOLE
Crowd 8 - great atmosphere although disappointingly less than 7,000 gasheads attended Ref 8 - ref did ok in what could have been a difficult environment. A little lenient at times to both sides. Oxford 6 - makings of a good side but were disappointing in the final third

Just wasted an hour trying without success to get my pasty. Went though the process but the link to print would not come up. Tried with a different browser a number of times without success. It then tells me that I have bought more pasties than I am entitled to when I haven't had any!! Definitely will not get fat eating free pies! Sorted !! Despite the club implying that you could print the voucher at the end of the process (which I couldn't) I have now received an email from the club enabling me to print the voucher. Hope it is tasty enough to make the effort work while!!

Jaakkola 6 - a couple of dodgy moments but could not be faulted for either goal
Hare 5 - defensively poor but exposed by system. OK corners. Davies 6.5 Kilgour 6.5 Leahy 5 - same as Hare but also his mistake led to the critical first goal
Ogogo 6 - showed energy Clarke 4 - very poor Sercombe 5.5 - was doing better than of late. Shame that he got injured Bennett 5 - inconsistent. Showed good effort at times. Lucky not to have been sent off.
Smith 4 - looked as lightweight as Nicholls Clarke-Harris 5 - glimpses of the real JCH but clearly not match fit
Subs: Upson 4 - added nothing. Too slow. Nichols 3.5 - too lightweight. Had a chance, tried the spectacular and totally missed the ball Adeboyejo 4- did not get into the game
Crowd 3 - I am hurting as well but the booing at the end will only makes things worse Ref 7 Coventry 6 - better than us but nothing special

Jaakkola 5.5 - no costly mistakes but did not inspire confidence
Little NOLE Davies 7 - did ok - pick of the bunch Craig 6.5 - mainly steady Leahy 6 - mixed bag. Too many wasted balls but played his part in a reasonably solid back four
Upson 5.5 - did ok first half blunting Wycombe attacks. Faded after the break. Lacks the pace to be truly effective. Ogogo 4 - very poor compared to his friendly appearance against Swansea pre-season when he was very good. Seemed unsure of his role. Sercombe 3 - watched him up close in the first half. Just because a right footed Bodin can play effectively on the left, why does GC assume Sercombe and others can. A lot of his losing the ball and missing tackles was because he was using his right foot instead of his left when it was impossible under pressure to do so effectively. Clarke 4 - very poor - need to give the captaincy to someone else
Nichols 2 - oh dear! Have been a fan but my patience has finally run out. Totally ineffective, but to be fair to him it was crazy to pick him in a windy long ball type of match against a team like Wycombe. Adeboyejo 5.5 - did quite well with no service in the first half. Unlucky not to score. Looks like he needs to be fitter. Could perhaps be the best partner for JCH long term
Subs:Hare 5.5 - did ok for first league match but a few mistakes Clarke-Harris 5 - looked rusty Bennett NOLE
Crowd 5 - smaller than expected but weather before the match not great Ref 5 Wycombe 5 - Think that they will struggle and the fact that we could not beat them at home is worrying

Really heart breaking to read these posts, my personal belief, not being ITK on anything, is that no one knows all of what's going on, there is maybe bits of truth in some of them but that's about all.. If, as many people belief, Wael has fallen out with his family over BRFC then maybe, just maybe the family business, banking, has put together a scheme to sell the club against Wael''s wishes. If that was the case then it makes more sense to me that Wael's radio announcement was an attempt to scupper any such deal. I maybe completely wrong but to me it makes as much sense as announcing out if the blue what he said. In 6 decades of supporting the Gas I have never been more worried about its survival Likewise - six decades supporting the Gas and equally concerned. Seems like Wael is trying to scupper any deal in order to stay involved. Even if a consortium did build a stadium at the fruit market I have heard nothing to suggest that Bristol Rovers would own it. Could be more commercially beneficial to a consortium to keep the stadium themselves (it was described as a sports arena not a football ground, with Rovers and others as tenants (even if they did also own the football club as well). Such a scenario is a backward step for the club especially as the proceeds from the sale of the Mem would all be lost paying off the Al Qadi family. Uncertain worrying times.

Sounds fantastic but who will own the ground? If Dwayne Sports and/or an investment company we will be vulnerable going forward.

Oh dear! I know we were up against a good side but we were very poor. Thought that Ogogo did well and Tomlinson showed some skill and vision, a tough little player but needs to be bigger to compete in League One. Goalkeepers so far not a patch on Bonham. Think we will rue the fact that the club did not pay Bonham what he wanted to stay. Without JCH nobody likely to score the goals to keep us up.
Still Boris is PM and he says that everyone has to be positive so ignore everything I have just said !!

Scales looks a good prospect. Started life as a left winger so very skilful for a centre back. Apparently very left-footed so assume would be fighting with Kilgour to take over from Craig.

Smith 6 - perhaps could of done better with the goal but his most confident performance for a long time
J. Clarke 6 - pretty solid Lockyer 7.5 - read the game well. Hearing that he is going effectively on a free was a real downer. Craig 7 - quite solid but passing poor at time Kelly 6 - thought that he did well in the first half but lots of errors in the second
Rodman 7 - his ability to score goals is priceless. Good thing is that he can still play a lot better O. Clarke 7- very good at times in the first half but too inconsistent with basic errors Upson 6.5 -ok performance again but like the rest of the midfield makes too many simple errors interspaced with good things Ogogo 6.5 - got about a lot but many sloppy errors Sercombe 6.5 - good at times but not putting away his scoring opportunities
Jakubiak 4.5 - tried hard and a number of good things but wasted opportunities to score and has never this season looked to be a League One striker
Subs: Reilly 2- missed a good chance and looks to be more non-League than League 1 Lines 5.5 - did not impress Kilgour NOLE
Crowd 8 Ref 7 Barnsley 6

Bonham 6 - mostly ok but distribution could of been better
J. Clarke 6 - average performance (same for all of the back four) Lockyer 6 Craig 6 Holmes-Dennis 6
Rodman 5 - looked rusty Upson 5.5 O. Clarke 6 Sercombe 6.5 - best game for a while but should of scored
Nichols 2.5 - really expected him to play well after not playing Friday but weak and always offside Clarke-Harris 5 - had enough chances to win the match easily for us. Looked burnt out.
Subs: Jakubiak 4.5 - a few snippets of pace and skill but no end product Reilly NOLE
Crowd 7 Ref 5 Rochdale 5 - nothing special. We should have won easily

Bonham 7 - made a few tricky saves look easy and gave confidence to the defence
J. Clarke 5 - mistake for the first goal. Their left back had a lot of freedom on the wing and Clarke was badly exposed due to our system. Lockyer 6 Craig 6.5 - some good defensive blocks Holmes-Dennis 6.5 - extra point for the cross. Looked defensively weak (exposed by our system).A number of basic errors but showed his class at times.
Upson 5 - too many errors and too slow O. Clarke 5.5 - good goal but like the whole midfield numerous basic errors Ogogo 5.5 - some good moments. Many basic errors and at times the midfield were all chasing the same ball giving Bradford space. Sercombe 5.5 - started off very poor but improved. His corners were better than of late and had a couple of chances.
Nichols 5.5 - played well at the start but faded and not a goal threat either Clarke-Harris 7.5 - not his best game but his goals were massive
Subs: Sinclair 5.5 Rodman 5.5 Jakubiak NOLE
Crowd 7 - good at the end Ref 8 - all our bookings were justified Bradford 5 - looked ok at time but if they let in three goals when we played so poorly you can see why they are bottom

Bonham 7 - some good saves
J. Clarke 6 - solid performance defensively. Not effective going forward. Lockyer 6 - a few errors but a reasonable performance Craig 7.5 - pick of the back four Kelly 3.5 - very poor. Will have a good career in the Conference
Sercombe 3 - if he played to 50% of his ability we would have won the game. Defensively a liability. Dead ball delivery was very poor. Had a few chances which last year he would of scored at least one. Upson 4.5 - error strewn performance Ogogo 4.5 - was ineffective Sinclair 4.5 - very poor start. Lots of energy and gave Kelly a lot of cover in the first half. Needs more game time to get up to speed but questionable if he is one of our best three midfielders. Would have done a better job than Kelly at left back.
Reilly 5.5 - chased and won a number of lost causes in the first half but looks out of his depth in League 1 Clarke-Harris 6 - a few glimpses of his class but for most of the time well shackled by the Coventry defence
Subs: Nichols 5.5 - a few bright moments but not a game changer Jakubiak 5.5 - Looks more likely to score than Nichols or Reilly but flatters to deceive Kilgour NOLE
Crowd 7 Ref 7.5 Coventry 6 were better than us. They should of scored at least four but were very sloppy. With one piece of class we could of won this game. Unfortunately the players were not able to come up with it. This was a great opportunity to get three points. Worrying that we are not winning games at the moment and we now need two or three wins from five games to stay up

Bonham 6 - not much to do
J. Clarke 6.5 - had lots of attacking space. Did ok but a class below the Luton wing backs Lockyer 6 - average Craig 6 - average Kelly 5 - too many mistakes
Upson 5 - good at times but lack of pace from a standing start causes us problems against the better teams O. Clarke 5 - tried hard but nowhere near his best Ogogo 5.5 - energetic performance but a bit headless at times meant that he did not always track the right man Sercombe 3 - very poor. Well off the pace. Must be a reason for his poor form this season as definitely has the ability
Nichols 4 - have been a big fan this season but patience has run out re lack of goals. Had a chance at nil-nil, not easy but any striker needs to score at least a handful of these in a season. Offside too often and switched off at times not tracking back when he should of Clarke-Harris 7.5 - what a goal! Not at his best but our best player by a long way
Subs: Jakubiak 5.5 - looked better than Nichols but apart from Oxford away has not looked like scoring goals in League 1 Reilly NOLE
Crowd 7 - reasonable atmosphere Ref 4 - all for referees not giving lots of cards but too lenient and not really in control. Gave to much time to players going down with non-serious injuries. Luton 8- good side. Wing backs very impressive

Bonham 7.5 One great save and always gave confidence to the defence
J. Clarke 6.5 Defensively good but lacked a positive attacking influence Lockyer 9 Couple of small errors but a masterful performance Craig 8 very sound performance Kelly 6 Adequate performance, good at times but poor at times
Upson 6.5 Improved as the game went on. If he did not lack pace he could be a very good player O. Clarke 6 Mixed performance. One great strike, worked hard but numerous errors Ogogo 6.5 Hard working performance with good ball winning Sercombe 5 Felt sorry for him. In his best position but missed lots of tackles and interceptions. A yard off the pace.
Nichols 5.5 Did not influence the game as he can and there was no goal threat either Clarke-Harris 7.5 Not his best game but great effort, won lots of free kicks and almost scored with a good free kick
Subs: Jakubiak 7 Looked lively when he came on and looked a goal threat as well. Good impact player against a tired defence Sinclair NOLE
Crowd 7 Ref 7.5 was quite lenient but let the game flow which was good. Took a long time to make up his mind at times. Always fooled by JCH's willingness to go to ground easily. Charlton 8 Looked to have some very good players. Goalie made a world class save and the right back (who is a class above this league) a great saving tackle in the second half

Full of enthusiasm to renew my East Stand season ticket but deflated after failing numerous times online. Error messages include temporarily unavailable, multiple ticket applications not allowed and no seats available together (it is only one seat that I want!)

Bonham 6.6 - distribution not up to usual standard
J. Clarke 7.5 - very steady Lockyer 6.5 - defensively very strong but distribution poor Craig 6.5 - steady game Kelly 6 - poor in first half but improved in the second until taken off
Rodman 7 - class player but did not shine as much as in recent games Upson 5 - not as good as recent performances, lacks pace Sinclair 6 - battled hard but lacked the flair to unlock the Burton defence Martin 6 - average game
Reilly 6 - battled hard but no end product Jakubiak 6.5 - jumps less than Payne and wins less in the air. Needs to play off a big man. Some good moments but looked dead on his feet after an hour.
Subs: Sercombe 6 - couple of good moments Lines 6 - made a difference when he came on but faded quickly Nichols 6 - did nothing wrong but did not look like scoring
Crowd 7 - good numbers but a bit flat at times Ref 5 Burton 5.5 good control and passing but no end product

Bonham 7 - competent performance
J. Clarke 7.5 - strong performance. Great attitude Lockyer 8.5 - Tom at his best. Read the game superbly and led from the front. Craig 7.5 - Looked good for most of the game Kelly 5.5 - Good in parts but looked the weak link
Rodman 7.5 - good in the air and great feet Upson 8 - One of his best games. Shame that he becomes a liability when up against teams with any pace. O. Clarke 7 - battled hard all game Holmes-Dennis 6.5 - looked tired but clearly a class act. Would be wise to rest him against Burton
Reilly 6 - tried hard but looks a bit out of his depth at the moment Jakubiak 8 - took his goals superbly but still areas where he can improve. At this level his pace is priceless.
Subs: Sercombe 6.5 - glimpses of his potential but looks out of place when on the left and defensively weak. Nichols 6 - did not do much wrong and battled hard
Crowd 8 - great scenes at the end. Great emotion shown by the manager carrying on the DC tradition. The King is dead. Long live the King. The perfect replacement until the end of the season. Refs 6 Oxford 4 - looked a poor side. Wasted lots of good opportunities by overhitting the final ball. The crossbar was on our side for once and our luck could be turning.
