Was one of the several to leave after the third goal.
My old man says in his 40 odd years supporting the gas, that this was one of the worst home games he has ever watched - and I can tell why. The players were booed off at half time, and I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't the same at the end of the game. That's the second home game in a row they have. We have no desire, no leaders.
The only positive thing about today was the bloody cheesy chips at half time.
Adam Smith produced two decent saves (people will be clutching at straws and say that they were top-notch, but they weren't), and made a howler which almost lead to 0-2 within the first 5 minutes, and should have done alot better with the first goal, and possibly the third, but with the second and the third, our defense gave their players too much time to dwell on the ball that they were both easy goals.
Relegation form.
Would say "sort it out" but I think the backroom staff have lost confidence in themselves, as some, if not most of us have lost in them too. You cant call those who have a negative opinion in these situations directed at Clarke; He was given money, albeit not enough, and given the chance to strengthen, and instead spent almost half a million in payment and add-ons for Tom bloody Nichols who's done nothing but make the fans say "He needs a goal," "Give him one more match," and "He'll come good."
Sorry to say, if this continues, which I think it will, since there wont be any investment in less than two months time in the window, we'll go back down.

Apparently that was Swindons second team with a few reserves chucked in.

What worry’s me ( not half as much as 3 yrs ago lets be real) is we will not spend money in Jan. It is an awkward, inflated time to buy at the best of times. If im wrong it could show the board misjudged our budget in the summer thinking it was top 6 competitive and if they do spend it will show they are real about progressing. What happens in jan will illustrate wether the owners have any real ambition and money to inject imo. 1 non league purchase and 2 loans is my forcast or worse BB gone for 500k....will reserve judgment untill then and if negative I will be vocal about wanting new owners. Pressed the dislike button in error.IMO spend will be determined by whether we have a relegation issue to worry about. We certainly won't be having to spend to sustain a promotion push. I dont think "ambition" necessarily comes into it at the moment, it's more a worry of retaining our league position and spend if any, will reflect that. if we are mid table and comfortable I cannot see a big cash injection - unless of course if BB is sold for mega bucks - and maybe then he will given something to spend. Click it again then

Haven't seen a single save from either nutjob. Not securing Joe Lumley, and replacing him with two rejects was never going to end well! You may say I'm just going off tonight, but look at the bigger picture! GKs are shocking Undroppable Lockyer No show Sweeney Unpickable Telford and is it fair to class DC as "somewhat confused"? Bedtime for you I agree.

We'll score first, they'll score second, but we'll finish winners. Mark my words.

They had promised a difference in sound, and there should be a noticeable difference. Think they meant the difference was it has got even worse.

Won't be remembered as a classic, but a solid, organised win to get us back on track. Thought Leads played really well today. Covered Lockyer a couple of times in the first half and got forward well. Both full backs started overlapping from the start of the second half; which was when he kicked into life. Leads and Browner running at defenders, I love to see - we have our Rovers back. We struggle at the starts of the season because DC tinkers with the team; if Darrell is reading this (which he actually might be, hopefully not, that'll be embarrassing) dont tinker further! We have a winning team.
