We need a striker signed this week.... Maybe two although I am not sure JCH will be on his way after our 'dry January'.
Having two up front is surely not too much to ask for at home.

Not ashamed to admit, got up this morning and decided not to make a two hundred mile round trip for today's game. After listening to that, glad I gave it a miss! I cant even be bothered to make a 5 mile trip. |

500 minutes, 6 hours of football, 1 calendar month without a league goal. 2 shots on target today. One from Upson 30 yards out that was slower than London traffic and the other was a penalty? Not good enough. not good enough but fair result Not sure I can agree, the penalty was our only chance. Fleetwood had quite a few chances to score and should have. They were better on the ball, better defensively, more possession and more goal scoring chances. Not quite sure where/how we matched them |

Our Goal Of The Month competition should be fun.

Omg this commentary gets worse. "fans surprised about Josh Barrett getting MOTM, he's worked hard but not done much this 2nd half" Maybe becaus he's been off the pitch for the past 25 mins 😂🙈🙈 The commentary is always rubbish. Glad I get to watch the game, as if I was just listening, I wouldn't have a clue what was going on! They are always saying the wrong player and half the time don't have a clue. |

Not good enough. Sounds pretty bleak when you put it like that. In fact you can draw a distinct parallel in the difference in attitude between Garner and Coughlan. Coughlan was all about not complicating the football so you can maximise your attempts at goal by getting the ball down the other end as often and as quickly as possible. It.’s probably no surprise that if you pepper the goal with shots you’re going to get one eventually. Garner sounds like he is more concerned with the possession stats than he is about actual shots on goal. As Leicester proved you can win the premier league with only 30% possession. |

Well if he is concentrating on possession, then he's not doing a very good job of it.. |

But the only time we’ve had more possession is his first game against Wimbledon 😂 |

Our Goal Of The Month competition should be fun. Still got one more game to go yet. But at the moment it does not look like we will score. JCH looks a different player. As well as the penalty today, he missed a sitter at Rotherham and put a header wide against Doncaster. If we keep him, hopefully a goal will change his fortunes again. Looks like a lot of his game, is built on confidence. |

If we aren’t actually bossing possession in absence of shots then what the f**k are we doing?! |

After listening to that, glad I gave it a miss! 120 miles for me but gave this one a miss too. Feel a bit crap about not going tbh. Still more glass half full than half empty but can't explain why. |

How long will the board put up with this?
Surely 4 or 5 more displays like this and BG will be kissing goodbye to his managerial career?

Clean sheet, remember what with new signings and players coming back team is not settled and must be given time to gel, may be time to stop relying on JCH all the time and try something different up front though, we just have to hang in there and use rest of season to fine tune the team and tactics ready for next season, up the Rovers!

Were you there today? I’m not taking the p*** or anything. Just wondering. |

My heart sunk when that ball came bouncing back into play.
It certainly wasn’t a great second half (against a decent first half showing) but when you have a penalty in the 85th minute no matter how you have played, you should be winning the match.
JCH penalty as casual as his all round play. Atrocious.

Better 1st half. Second half seemed terrible but I couldn’t really tell given the east terrace was full of what I must presume to be drama students ‘watching’ their first football match and looking for some attention.
My biggest problem right now is JCH. I’m probably own my own but I’d drop him so he could earn his place in the team again after composing himself. Many will say who would you replace him with but that’s not what’s important. 50% poor refereeing today 50% JCH going town too easily and often, playing desperate shots, flick ons going into thin air. A break from the starting 11 will help him recompose himself and help get his head straight.
I’d have said that before the penalty miss, I think that event confirmed this in my mind.
