Gas v Bolton thread.

Awful performance, but seeing grown men boo and heckle our own players is embarrassing. Please stay away if you can't take losing a game of football.

Can he be any worse than ollie clarke ?
Give the guy a chance i say, at least until sercombe is fit.

will do,fishing for me Saturday
To think they get paid good money and can’t pass a ball is embarrassing

Look we battle hard and lump it up top to our big striker.
What could possibly go wrong?

Murphy was superb for them tonight,real class act.

Olly certainly passed to them more than us tonight, ok I realise he’s been out injured but a simple 10 yard pass to a team mate shouldn’t be beyond any footballer , back after injury or not.
He didn’t seem to be shattered like you’d expect a player who’s not match fit he was just poor.
Other than victor who worked his socks off with the odd reward and our keeper who kept us in it it’s hard to take anything positive from the game.
I never boo our players or shout abuse at them but they certainly weren’t getting a clap off the pitch from me tonight.
Having said all that I thought Bolton were excellent and if that squad had started the season with a pre season behind them they’d be top 6 now without a shadow of a doubt.

I play on a Saturday so I sadly don’t get to many games so your opinions are worth 10x more than mine, but how awful was that. 

I don’t know what he does but Ollie Clarke seems to suck the life out of the midfield, he doesn’t complement Upson and Agogo at all. Kelly got absolutely destroyed all game by their right winger, he couldn’t cope. I’ve never seen a rovers side rely so heavily on player before like this, relying on JCH even more than we relied on Lambert. 

i couldn’t believe the constant hoofball. I can’t wait for GC post match reaction, I have no idea what he’s gonna say. 

They’ve clearly got quality players for this level all over the pitch.
It Boils my water that a few sides have played against their kids and turned them over by big scores.
The EFL have massively f**ked up.

Shocking but no surprise.
Bolton played the game that I assume is the first thing they teach you in coaching school. Look interested, pass and move, play to your strengths.
Rovers tactics. Do none of the above, play with 7 defensive players and launch the ball to players to feed off scraps.
Ollie being found out at this level. Nichols is a technical player but he has had more than enough chances to prove his worth. His skills and hold up play - which were missing tonight - hide the fact he is a striker employed to score goals. Not sure if other players are bad or just don't get GCs tactics. Keith Hill just did his homework. Expect more managers to follow

The team was just all wrong tonight.

Craig was awful tonight and at fault for the second goal.
Upson was back to his worst with Ollie around him.
Ollie was, well, awful. Misplaced passes, poor first touch, didn’t put a foot in, didn’t lead, did nothing.
Kelly isn’t a lwb. Was awful and lightweight with no pace. Why drop Leahy?
Rodman, was awful, wrong decision making, wayward passing and crossing.
Nichols. Same as Clarke. But Smith was no better when he came on.

The only ones that came out with any credit tonight were Adeboyejo and Jakkola.

Tactically the manager picked the wrong team expecting Bolton to roll over and didn’t have the balls to drop Nichols and Clarke early in the game when it was obvious they were miles off the pace. GC has to take the blame for tonight. Absolutely terrible decision making.

Add to the fact we had Ketfle reffing made it for an even more of a terrible evening.
