One goal ,10 men.
Could be worse.
We need to keep our heads up.
No future with eyes looking at the pavement.

For many years,I have followed your posts and logic? With keen interest. I often agree with some of the things you have to say. Sadly I am sick to the back teeth of this Handbrake sh it. I genuinely hope you are well Tbone and yes we go back a long way on here. It takes all sorts on a forum, you will remember Joe Bananaās?! I may divide opinion but right at the end of todayās game I was still jumping up and down shouting over the line?! I wanted us to win of course, Iāve missed one home game, seen two away games and watched all on TV. He lost me after that Swindon game, last week was park your bus stuff, handbrake and today I hope proves me wrong and is the start of performances like this most weeks going forward. I hope things with you are well mate. I'm good thanks mate. Looking forward to hopefully getting my back sorted. Surgery is booked for Nov 7,just recovered from neck operation,so will miss a couple of games by the look of it. Yes we have both been on here for a long time, even the original forum was blessed by our existence on there. I hope you and yours are all good too. |

That's an average of 1 point each away game, this season it's just over 0.5 points, so we've got worse rather than better despite spending over Ā£1m on players. Only Cambridge, Burton and Crawley have worse away records and if we ever stop winning our home games we could well join them in the bottom 4. You canāt tell some, a good showing minus any points seems to be the new bar. If today was a side who won more then often Iād behind everyone saying we were unlucky and be proud of the side but today was a continuation of a calendar season now for an ultra defensive manager. It felt dirty at the start of the season how we went about the draw at Rotherham and how we all praised it, I did back then, now not, I donāt want to a rovers side with a manager going about his job this way. Cogs had a brilliant away formula, he was out and out route one at times but he utilised Rollin, Upson, Ogogo, Upson, Rodman, Leahy, Nicholls and Tyler Smith to do it at Portman Road in our 2-1 win with no JCH. This manager could never do this, and heās had twice the budget Cogs did as well. Youād think weād won the game, we lost, before Reading scored Griffins was rolling around the floor and wasting time, that can only be on instructions. Taylor would of been happy with a nil nil, |

Itās a forum, is this North Korea or we canāt have an opinion? I try to back up my opinion, I take time to post, I like the debate with the likes of Yatton and Socrates It's just bizarre to be so negative this evening after a solid performance away to a team in the top 6 who have won all bar 1 game at home this season. Heās not necessarily being negative, heās being critical - there is a difference. |

No tbh three points are whatās needed. Iāll be honest I canāt stand keepers doing that, itās time they were booked for their time wasting and sent off, after the second time of doing it. Game after game the drink break happens from a goalkeeper being āinjuredā Letās also not forget Taylor got booked today, not setting the best example to his players like the last fool. |

I think the guy, Bindon, was booked for that particular challenge. UTG! Bindon was booked for assault on Bilongo. That incident happened before Bilongo almost had his head kicked by another of the refs mates I donāt think so. UTG! |

Any manager wanting to win a game would be going mad at time wasting giving his chance to score a goal, he was told this. Rotherham away at the start of the season, they had 20 shots at goal against our 5, they had 5 corners against our 0 zero. One minute we have played the top 6, then someone says weāve played big clubs like Rotherham and Posh. For every game there is an excuse, it was weāve won 3 in 4 Tuesday night, now Reading are big club but in turmoil and transfer embargos! We beat Burton away who are on 4 points, it was so bad handbrake tactics first half that a fan went to the dugout to tell him and he changed it at half time. He was forced to bring on Forde and Ward in the 50th minute to get a goal. Iām convinced weād have still lost or drawn today 0-0 without Shaq going off, no way would he have allowed us to go gung ho at the end. |

I can remember the great buzz at the station after the match but then whilst waiting for the train the word going around that Cogs had left. It was such a Rovers thing to happen just like Goodnight Irene lyrics last Saturday night I got married then... |

Being there was special, not because we were on the cusp of something magnificent, more that we were capable of bloodying the nose of one of the big boys. Then our manager left us. Typical šno more hand break stuff pleaseš |

I admire the Corinthian Casuals attitude, but be realistic. We were down to ten men and were under the cosh from Reading. Griffiths going down is the easiest way to force a break in play, get instructions from the bench and slow the oppositions momentum. OK we conceded - smith looked offside to me - but it was a mature thing for Griffiths to do. I wish we did more of it. |

That's a shocking return, especially when our main goal scorer is injured. When promise went off, that's 3 strikers injured. 3 home games coming up. A win in the cup and 4 points in the league and we will be doing okay. Martin will hopefully get minutes on Tuesday and Saturday. |
