Personally I'm very happy we are not live on TV Sunday, we would get absolutely smashed by Liverpool On this display, it could easily have been 10 on Sunday. Not concerned about “what it could have been Sunday”. This is an absolute joke, all the players and our Manager should hang their heads in shame. By a country mile the worst performance of the season. Easy to blame the weather, but Exeter not doing to bad, first to every ball and everyone of their players wanting it, unlike our bunch of strangers. |

This has been an awful first half. Really poor. We need a bit of bite out there. Our defence injuries could cost us dear. Missing Ward & Wilson, for sure.
This is the time where the manager can really show his worth. This set of players need to up their game.
I, as always, live with hope knowing that the second gives us the chance to make amends. Can we. Let’s see…

Few to blame there but surely Cox could have held onto that Poor goalkeeper , can’t get my head around how we kicked out our senior and also best goalkeeper to replace him with a calamity kid on loan. Ludicrous. |

Taylor really has work to do
We have gone rapidly backwards
Just cannot see us winning this game let alone drawing

I'll never get that rule how you have to go off the pitch and down to 10 men if a physio has to give treatment. Where is the sense in that? To stop play acting. If you know you have to go off, you are less likely to cheat. It doesn't seem to work, but that's the reason. |

It's clear we miss Ward and Wilson. Taylor got a tune out of the team when he first came in. Too many players going missing and too many being given game time that don't deserve it. Taylor needs to be more ruthless now. Not many out there I’d want to see next season, if there’s not a substantial improvement second half. They’re rolling over out there. That being said, Exeter are playing some superb football. The worst away side in the division going round us like Brazil 1970 |

The sad thing is as it stands Taylors record is no better than Bartons . Nothing has improved. It’s clearly worse, Joey would have made at least three changes halftime, let’s see what this nice bloke does? |

Utter disgrace …
Not convinced Taylor has it in him to turn this around.
Too many look totally disinterested - Thomas & McCormick the only ones in credit for me so far.
This was why it was vital we had early additions to the squad and yet little happening there too.

Those injury time goals against Pompey and Charlton papered the cracks. Has Collins been abducted by Aliens?! Never known a player regress so badly

Have a season ticket, I gave it away, I'm really not enjoying watching Rovers these days, it's even worse on ifollow, gone from a really good team to a really poor team since Barton went, I hope Taylor can sort it but I'm getting worried about relegation, we look poor, really poor

The only positive is that we are only losing 1-0.

Cox - shocking .. please can we sign a keeper. Marquis and Collins might as well be standing on the Thatchers end. This truly is the worse I have witnessed in years. Where do we go from here 🙄

I wonder who the leaders are in this dressing room at a time like this in the playing staff.
From the outside, nobody stands out but the inside of a group dynamic can be a very different sight.

Worst half of football for a long time. Very lucky it's only one goal. I know we've got injury problems, but we can't do anything, can't kick the ball, no control, nothing.... Really need something tonight because we will get tanked on Saturday.

Good to see Rovers back to action with a classic home performance.
It’s been a great game to watch, fast-paced and amazing entertainment.
Cox has been outstanding.

Sh*t first half but Taylor has been royally stitched up by JB who signed a side completely imbalanced, devoid of pace and full of crocks.
Board need to back their man FFS - 23rd Jan and not a single signing.
Hopefully this lot get a rocket up their arse at HT and we see an unrecognisable team in the second half. Stranger things have happened.

Very poor again isn’t it.
I know many on here saying there’s no point in spending this window as play offs out of reach let’s do our business in the summer etc but we aren’t safe from the drop yet and with the injuries we have we desperately need people in now and not wait until the summer.
We need to start building now and keep it going in the summer and we need a commanding goalkeeper that saves shots, a defensive midfielder to stop teams running right through our midfield and at least one striker preferably with pace.

The ifollow stats say that Exeter have put in 18 crosses. We haven’t put in one.
McCormick and Thomas and Hunt seem to be doing ok. That’s it.
Exeter look miles better than us. We surely can’t be as bad in the second half.
