Fine margins in football. We were the better side today and lost because we didn't take our chances and they did.
That's football. I saw no signs of the players not wanting to play for Taylor today thought they all put in a good shift.

I'm gutted... I called this in January. I said- he hadn't been backed and we'll be left not understanding whether the manager has "it" or not... impossible to judge. I didn't judge Barton with Garners side, I wouldn't Taylor with Bartons. I'm not calling for Taylors sacking but he does start next season with incredible pressure. He'll need a great window and a fast start. Having made the decision to sack Joey and run with Matt- they should've backed him. As a minimum, we'd of had clarity on next year. I didn't renew my season ticket- as I don't understand vision for this club. I'm still hoping some decent signings convince me to get a new one before the season begins. I'm really concerned about the direction provided by the board. - sack Barton per "underachieving" - take 2 months to appoint a bloke to rectify that. - little support in January to address "underachieving" - admissions of underachieving and season ticket hikes for families. The performance today wasn't bad but the positivity is sapped. At one point this season I truly believed we were gonna have last season player or year and last season top goalscorer in our side. Now we have neither. Barton's side, minus Collins. Plus Thomas, McCormick, Ward and others have been injured. So it's hard to judge him, as we've had no attack! McCormick has been injured/out of form since the day he was signed, I'm not sure you can blame him being missing on our poor results. It's mystifying why MT started with Brown today, as it's like playing with 10 when he's in the side and it just leaves Martin upfront to take on the 2 central defenders, add to that Sinclair seems to have lost the ability to beat his full back, although he was playing on the wrong wing. |

Based upon your logic the clown called Barton pulled this team together, but in saying that I thought they played well today and on another day could easily have won it. Rotherham have the lowest budget in the Championship by a mile and if you look back Taylor is the only guy to keep them for a season. He therefore needs to be allowed to build a squad. I just hope the board back him. "easily won it" what game were you watching? Bolton never seemed to get out of first gear but still won 2-0. Definitely a different game to you. Bolton know they were lucky. |

We've seen some poor performances at home over the past couple of months but today certainly wasn't one of them. We were every bit as good as Bolton but ultimately it cane down to Collins taking the only chance they had from open play and we missed ours.
I thought for the majority of the game we looked solid but how many times have we said that, one lapse and from being on top and looking likely to go on & score we're chasing the game.
On the positive side I thought Connolly was excellent, much more like the player we saw in league 2

The team Monotone Taylor built at the beginning of this season before getting the sack at Rotherham, were pathetic last night, beaten by Argyle and as a result relegated. The same clown in the past six games as BRFC manager as resided over no wins and his team have not scored a single goal. Today he had Jordy Rossiter, arguably the best footballer at the club available, and left him on the bench. I really hope the owners know what they are doing as from what I watched this afternoon, I saw a manager on touch line throughout the match with his arms crossed, no pattern of play, and a honest bunch of players who were generally going through the motions. Does this bode well for the future and can he be aloud to build another squad ? hmm. Having a player on a bench does not imply they’re ready to play a match. If numbers are low managers will bring players close to return to te bench to refamiliarise them with match day routines and as part of their recuperation A player like Rossiter who’s been out for a long time is a risk to put on the pitch too early. Doing so could put him back out for many more months. Not worth it. |

We were definitely watching a different game, as I thought Brown did well today. He brings something different to the team and can open a defence. Biggest plus was not having Finley slow everything down. Gave others freedom. |

Brown and Evans were playing behind Martin, blame one then you have to blame the other. |

If so that's a joke it should have gone to Connelly or Thomas. Wilson's distribution is diabolical |

Just listened to Taylor, he's totally out of his depth, have absolutely zero confidence he can get these, or any players to play the way he wants. I've seen many teams play like we did today and end up getting relegated (not saying we will go down) but the facts are we can't score or defend. We've now lost to all of the bottom sides and a Bolton team that generally struggle away from home (they were slow at the back). When will this stop? Can anyone see us winning another game with Taylor in charge? We've lost to the poorest teams in the division, what does that make us!? Players that will still be here next season look totally lost and a shadow of the players they were, I can't see anything changing next season.

No idea how they came up with Wilson as mom, |

McCormick alone wouldn't have been a miss. But when we were missing lots of attacking players, he would have given us a different option. He can run in behind and get around the pitch. A lot of similar players were out at the same time. Lots are injured a lot. But is that Taylor's fault?? Did he sign them? |

( "Gonzo" commenting on CJ winning the pen.)
He did that brilliantly btw the wiley old fox.
Knew he was never darting towards goal and doing him for pace so checked slightly outside and took the tackle.
Can't teach that sh**.

It was a needless challenge by CT, not that it really made any difference to the outcome. |

I've not seen McCormick do anything since he signed, although bringing him on the 87th mins hardly gives him a fair chance but the absolutely useless Marquis got 10(?) mins longer. |
