Took the second half of the game by the scruff of the neck and ran them ragged in the end. There was 4 or 5 players who could of got mom today but as a team performance that was just gutsy. Well done boys  |

Lots of great performances today, broadbent, bola and parts all great. Sercombe was outstanding and Ellis and Beard great too! Really enjoyed that, looks like we got the “never say die” attitude back with some talent to make it count. Bradford looked very ordinary

Credit where it is due, yesterday I said I couldn't see us getting a point today, how wrong was I.
We put in hell of a performance, looked great going forward with the ball, and defended exceptionally well too. We were unlucky to concede the penalty and be behind in the first half, was great to see the players come out in the second half fired. Well deserved 3 points, we were the only side in it for the majority if the game.
DC still must bring the additional players we need and want, the permanent signings he was after. Like Mensah I want us to sign players who want to play for Bristol Rovers and not players passing through for a few minutes on the pitch or bench.

Broadbent not the worry, its the rest of em DC saying TB can bring the ball out of defence better than Sweeney, not sure if the last home game supported that view. What ? Do you follow the game at all ? He brings the ball out like a League 1 Beckenbauer !!! |

What a fantastic performance in the second half. Bradford were awful other than being gifted a goal by the ref.

I thought it was a quality display today from 1 to 11.
After settling into the game I thought we played some decent stuff and edged it in the first half and were unlucky to go in a goal behind from a very harsh decision, but second half we upped the tempo and were the much better team for me.
I don't want to single anyone out because it was a good team display and everyone played their part...If we play like that for the rest of the season we won't have any worries. Great atmosphere at times today too, thanks in part to some dodgy decisions from the ref.
Well done to DC and the lads...UTG!!!

I see there are some lovely negative tactics employed by Darrel Clarke again today.. we’re at home and we’re playing with no width! We decide to play narrow in the mud bath, when the only good bit of surface is on the wing.. nice one Good Lord... Mr Negative! Any need to post this twice? There is more than one way to win a game you know! Just because a team doesn't employ wingers it doesn't mean it's a negative tactic by the manager (but some people do love to moan). |

Always enjoy catching up with a match thread after a game to read the pre game doom & gloom predictions based on the team selection !!!
We were excellent today thoroughly deserved to win with a number of candidates for mom. It's true we lacked width but 2nd half especially the full backs got forward more & more and in the end they struggled to contain us.
Glad we've tied Broadbent to a new contract superb today solid defensively & comfortable bringing the ball out from the back - good call from DC

Funny moment today when I thought their player was kicking out at Ellis and we should have got a pen ! Had to laugh when they both got up with their laces tangled together ! Guy behind me just didn't see the funny side to it at all !

Actually, I am going to single someone out ...Charlie Wyke for his celebration.
Wykey what's the score, Wykey Wykey what's the score!?

Really good second half and fully deserved win, Broadbent was excellent, Sercs too along with Ellis.
All round good team performance, enjoyed the last two home games.
Well done to the players and coaching staff.UTG

It was funny but the one thing about it that amazed me was the ref was so engrossed in what was going on he took his eye off the game for a good few seconds and it was being played behind him. Great game , crap ref. |

Hopefully the referees assessor made a note of that.  Who's laughing now Wykey!!!  (Btw you can leave Lockyer's pocket now) |

What a difference from the away game when our defending was poor. Superb performance from all today, Ellis and Broadbent stood out for me but excellent performances from all over the park, and it looks like a Park pitch.
We look a different team when we play with confidence, would like to see Bola at left midfield as awesome going forward.

He is a right spoilt bigheaded lady garden, he reminds me of Danny Hylton another (lady garden). |

No real skill and his level is lg1. A glorified Akinde no more no less. |
