Rovers 70% possession. 12 shots 1 on target. Wycombe 30%. possession. 12 shots 5 on target. Says it all really, Been this way for the longest time. New players, same result. What is the common denominator? Wrong tactics for this division |

That's a disgrace, I know the club needs to generate income but that's totally unacceptable, If you don't give value for money you won't get the custom. should be at least three times that amount, I would definitely put in a complaint. More bizarre the individual didn’t have a word & have it corrected, if they didn’t eat half of them before that pic was taken of course👀 I had cheesey chips from the fanzone & it was fully heaped 👌🏻 If it means we sign JCH, I will happily buy 10 chips for £3. Besides its better for your health (if not your bank balance!) |

Scenes when he signs for someone else and the club announce we were only a few dozen bags of chips away from completing the deal. fine margins.. |

Whilst the food is not great the portions are always fair. More to the point yesterday - three ticket booths not working in the West Stand and once again the pasty outlet couldn’t serve anything as the till was broken. Money lost and food wasted … Total nonsense. |

Everything seemed to be working nearer to the kick-off although the soft drinks machines weren't working, so the girls were left pouring warm cans of drinks into the paper drinks cartoons! |

I missed the game waking up late from working nights 🤦🏻♂️ with Hunt and Friend getting starts I’m curious of fans opinions on who our best fullbacks are? now they’ve all been seen in action that is. It’s seemed to be a problem area in previous seasons. Thoughts?

It’s seemed to be a problem area in previous seasons. Thoughts? I thought Hoole was our best player in the second half of last season but hasn’t been at his best so far this season - I thought Hunt was excellent yesterday (My motm) so Hoole might struggle to get back in the starting lineup. I thought Gordon had started the season ok but he clearly gets targeted with long high diagonals by some opposition managers. This won’t happen with Friend who is a big unit and although he looked a little rusty at times you could see he is a decent player. Overall, early impressions are that we now have good quality and competition for both fullback positions. |

You could tell both have played at a higher level and both an upgrade on hoole and Gordon. Both are certain starters if fit Saturday. |

So there’s no worries with friends mobility in that position then? At his age that was my biggest concern

Thought Friend was a huge improvement on Gordon, and Hunt was my MOM. Whoever decided to give it to Brown, certainly never watched the same game as I did. |

Georgey boy with the sweetest nutmeg in front of the East Terrace.
Proper one, not just passing it through someone’s legs, one touch megnuts & collect on the other side. absolutely sold the lad 👌🏻
Good performance too, other than being on a yellow, was surprised to see him pulled for sick note. Who again offered zilch.

The only caveat being Wycombe were pretty gash and never really attacked our full backs aside from a couple of times when they brought McCleary on so il reserve judgement on his legs once seen more of him. But based on yesterday's showing he oozes quality at this level. So calm on the ball. As was hunt. |

Great things to hear from all who replied thank you, now we just have to see how many of the 46 games he can manage. Another problem with an older player isn’t it. Sounds like he’s taken good care of his body though so hopefully he’ll play more often than others his age group have previously managed |

Not only a penalty, if that was outside the box it should have been a booking too, the guy leapt at Brown when he was already in mid-air. You can see the Ref looking directly at the incident, but a penalty would not have gone with his gameplay. I know we were poor attacking wise but we were playing the Ref as well as Wycombe on Saturday. UTG |

Hunt showed why he won promotion with SW last year. I thought he was a stand out player when we played them both times and I was stunned when we signed him. Him and LT combining were a joy at times and he never stopped looking for the ball. Friend has a proper footballing brain and a couple of his touches, passes and runs showed his quality too. We are literally a couple of strikers away from being the finished product. |

He’s poor week in, week out and that won’t be his first shocker of the season. When I saw him listed as the ref, against a real 💩house team like Wycombe as well, my heart sank and I knew it was going to be a poor afternoon and I said as much to my mates too. |
