Jaakkola 4 got to stop punching the ball
Little 3 Clearly need's some time in the development squad, barely broke a jog and was having a mare with the ball at his feet. Craig 5 Nothing to other than not making use of space to bring the ball forward. Kilgour 5 Same as Craig after his first 5 minutes
Rodman 4 Added very little needs to take on the opposition. Ogogo 6.5 Good tackling and passion to win the ball back as always. Upson 5 Nothing to note Sercombe 4 Didn't make use of space Kelly 3 not the same player as he was last season, not confident going forward.
Smith 4 Battled, but out muscled. Adeboyejo 5 Battled, but closed down.
Subs: Nichols 4 battled, but out muscled. Clarke-Harris 5 clearly not quite 100%, but was nice to see him back Leahy 6 Right place, right time, nothing more to note.
Crowd 1 Atmosphere at the Mem is crap and is becoming the norm. Ref 5 fell for Bromley's time wasting Bromley 7 fair play to Wycombe 2.0 came with a plan and I know they did have a some proper injuries, but still were time wasting from the off, only played properly when they were losing and tore us apart with their hunger (wish our players had more of that), was almost embarrassed when their fans got on the pitch over their equalizer, if they'd watched us play a lot of our games in the last 18 months they wouldn't of been so surprised they managed to score.

Rovers specific trivia now that we've played the period without Clarke-Harris who is expected to return for next league game (Sunder-land). We've now got a pretty good idea on what we can expect from results without him or a similar player.
MK Dons 1-0 Win (home) Doncaster Rovers 2-0 loss (away) Bolton 2-0 loss (home) Portsmouth 2-2 draw (home) Rochdale 2-1 win (away)
Davies, Rodman, Adeboyejo, 2 x Own goals from opposition.
7/15 points.
not great, not awful, I for one was expecting worse.

Believe it if it happens, certainly think we need to look for another striker in January alongside JCH (assuming we some how managed to hold onto JCH) and probably can't do that without shipping out a player, even if we split the wage bill with Walsall it's something. With only 7 months left for Tommy to find himself a new contract a fresh start might do him some good in finding some form in front of goal, but seems a huge risk for DC if he's already under fire for a lack of goals up front.

This season to date is our best start since returning to league one in 2016.
10 games 2016/17 - 13 pts, 3 wins, 3 losses, 4 draws. 10 games 2017/18 - 12 pts, 4 wins, 6 losses, 0 draws. 10 games 2018/19 - 9 pts, 2 wins, 5 losses, 3 draws. 10 games 2019/20 - 15 pts, 4 wins, 3 losses, 3 draws.
GC has now managed 35 league games for the Gas and winning 14 (40%), losing 9 (25.71%) and drawing 12 (34.29%) (total of 54 points).
for clarity DC's league one record was 113 games, winning 38 (33.63%), losing 47 (41.59%), drawing 28 (24.78%) (total of 162 points).

Doesn't all football come under the FIFA umbrella ? For some reason I always thought it did. VAR should either be ALL in or ALL out. Ah well, that's bureaucracy for you. But as the original poster said, 'Well done' to Kosovo. At least they played football instead of amateur dramatics! The Commentators said it wasn't being used in the group stages, but will be used for the knockout stages next Summer.

Wasn't his contract with us described by the Cov manager "setting him up for life". If he's on a great deal perhaps that might put other clubs off?

Just to address some of the discussion that has been going on in this thread. Everyone is entitled to their opinion on these threads and no-one needs any credentials to post. Discussion is encouraged as it is often interesting to hear the reasoning behind a poster's ratings. Also, I fully expect people to have biases towards or against some players. For example, looking over a season it is easy to notice Henbury's love for Nichols and Hugo's disdain of Craig to name just two examples. Part of the great thing about so many more posters this season is the that these individual biases will for the most part average out. The final rating will be akin to a 'wisdom of the crowd' (or Francis Galton's ox) estimate of a player's true performance. And though I love diving into the ratings, they are just a bit of fun and shouldn't be taken too seriously. Well said, and great stats as usual. I am fully looking forward to finding out who my negative bias is against now that Sinclair is gone come the end of the season!

Fully expected ollie Clarke to get sent off during his 10 minute back and fourth with Accrington's number 8. IMO He's got the ability for this level, but he's hot headed as his 10+ yellow cards a season prove.

I've got a bit lost between all of the threads but if Bolton follow Bury into expulsion then does that mean that nobody gets relegated from league two at the end of the season? I assume only two go down from league one and all other leagues remain the same (still four up from league two etc.) What happens with the teams who did play against Bolton so far this season? I assume those results are removed and the points as well? That's my understanding with regards to teams that have already played Bolton. Would be sad to see them go to, but it would mean teams like Tranmere don't have the 5 goal advantage on other teams that didn't get the chance to play Bolton, when it gets to the end of the season.

Despite a good performance from most on the pitch, still disappointed with the midfields ability to take the ball forward. Very little happening in the middle which when we had the two man advantage was disappointing to see. If everyone was playing with confidence to take on their man think we could of easily had more. IMO we really need a Lines style player to come in before the window closes.

Can we count it anyway to help our goal difference, it may come down to something like that at the end of the season!

Hopefully Little is fit. I like Hare, but Little seems happier going forward.
