Good point, especially after that second half. For anyone worried that the fighting spirit and commitment that wasn't there against Wimbledon was gone forever, it was certainly back today!! Back three and Jaakola were superb as always. One thing is for sure, we definitely need a creative midfielder. We have one at right back. |

Hardworking and solid defensively. They were all over us in that second half but it's a point that we wouldn't of picked up last season and results around us weren't too bad either.
If you had said last January that we'd finish 2019 seventh and have a game in hand over a lot of the teams above, I would of bit your hand off for that.

It’s a point but I think we’ll drop down the table now and finish midtable this season.
Hope I’m wrong

Great point. I thought the squad lost it's fight when GC left?

Great point
It’s a funny time of year for results, look at Pompey and Peterborough today.
Just gotta hold our nerve and keep playing for each other
With our injured players coming back we will look ok again
The most important thing at the moment is stick together and get behind Garner and his team. We may not be the prettiest but we are hard to beat. And that gives you a fighting chance

Great backs to the wall point at a place that is extremely difficult to get a result. Well done Rovers!!!

3 points on Wednesday vs MK Dons will be great because points will be dropped elsewhere.
Doncaster Vs Oxford
Lincoln Vs Peterborough
Rotherham Vs Blackpool
Tranmere Vs Coventry
Wycombe vs Ipswich

Watched on Ifollow and thought Kilgour was a man mountain... Also Hargreaves was impressive albeit a bit lightweight.
JCH looked too isolated on the first half and generally we just didn't create enough. Thought TN looked half decent when he came on, but his contribution reinforced the fact he's not a striker, but more of a lines type of player IMO. Need to pick up a win against MKD otherwise could quickly lose page, but on the whole, can't complain with where we are this time of year and got to give BG a few games to bed in.

Didn't see the game but sounds like a very hard earned point. Fleetwood's home record shows its a difficult place to go so more than happy with that.

Normal service resumed after the Boxing day set back, resilient fighting performance from Rovers, on we go to an easier game at the franchisees(on paper any way!)they gave pompey a good bashing today so MUST be treated with respect!!!

Simply put, we are a solid team. Hard to beat with some good footballers in the middle.
Showed that this afternoon with a battling point.
Having said that, it would be nice to pose a bit more a threat. Pace and athletism anyone?
Speaking of which I expect changes for new years day. Some heavy legs out there at the end.

Presumably you're not talking about Rodman or Little so unless I'm missing anyone else... |

Back three and Jaakola were superb as always. One thing is for sure, we definitely need a creative midfielder. Just as we have needed for the last season and a half. But now the manager might agree, I was never sure that GC wanted one. The team was very much in his image and did very well but we battled to get the points. UTG! |

Look back to the start of this season and there weren't many on here who would have been disappointed by that. Rome wasn't built in a day. If we finish top 10 that would be a superb season after last years blip. |

They've just beaten Oxford and Pompey, the two forms teams of the division. One we should look to win, but a point wouldn't be terrible. |

Proved we can still dig in and grind out a decent result, always good to see Barton get menstral and throw his toys out the pram again.
