Had to miss this whole second half due to ifollow. Really disappointed and ruined for me what was a great game and the enjoyment of watching Same here mate, Just sent you a message on inbox. Weird as I didn’t have any problems with ifollow? Watched the whole game no problems.... Onto the game, a great performance and you could see the confidence after Nicholson scored that fantastic first goal.... Still some work to do defending as the 2nd Wimbledon goal was disappointing being a completely free header.... Hopefully we can follow this up with a strong win against Orient and then again next Sat to really build some momentum... Thoroughly enjoyed today’s game.... hopefully we’ll now get more of these performances going forward.... |

Total transformation today, still need a defence coach but a marked improvement going forward, Ehmer much better as a right back.
Finally some signs of life from this team, well done Paul Tisdale please keep it up.

Wow! What a transformation. Wasn't expecting that, particularly after conceding so early. Great team performance and Ehmer, Upson, Oztumer, Nicholson and Hanlan were outstanding.
Ehmer at right back was a revelation. Upson had his best game in a Rovers shirt. The front 3 Oztumer, Nicholson and Hanlan ran Wimbledon ragged and could have had at least a couple more goals.
Still need to work on our marking from set pieces. Their second goal was shocking defending and we nearly conceded another when Westbrooke completely lost his man early in the second half. Still not convinced about Westbrooke to be honest. A good run and lay off to help set up our second goal but he continues to give the ball away far too often for my liking and was really sloppy in conceding the penalty. Better than he has been but still wouldn't be in my starting 11 if everyone was fit.

So so glad to be sat here eating my humble pie.
Must admit I was feeling negative about the line up but the players put in a shift and the balance looked much better. We have a decent forward line up, if Ehmer can become a solid right back and Kilgour regains his form that will be a massive boost!
Fair play to Upson. Proved me wrong.

Didn't watch the gametoday, but it seems like we played 442. My wife, who states she is a "mere woman" has insisted for a long time that when we play this way we win. Greatresult. Sign of the times when you have to point out that your wife is a woman ... |

Looked soft, I agree but thought Westbrooke waited for the ball to arrive and their bloke got there first. My ifollow reception wasn't perfect though so I could be wrong.
The penalty criticism was a side issue really. I'd still expect more from Westbrooke. There were quite a few simple passes misplaced and he doesn't track midfield runners when defending. Don't get me wrong, he wasn't awful today but didn't contribute much towards the win. Personally I still prefer McCormick when fit but hopefully Westbrooke can improve under Tisdale's management.

Anyone having issues with I follow? I can’t get the game now? Lost it towards end of first half. Been very good all season up to now. Managed to get it back but picture on big TV connected to laptop very poor. Laptop OK. Halftime rebooted laptop and would not load Rovers or ifollow sites. Eventually dug out my android chrome book and loaded instantly, watched game through to final whistle. Definately a Windows problem, hopefully OK for next game. |

Wasn’t all bad in the end as I watched the second half just half hour behind 👍🏻 |

Just typical. Having watched every match so far this season I found myself in A&E today and missed the game. What have I done to deserve that, but now to wade thro 21 pages of superlatives for the amazing PT to get the story. By the way tge doctor said I will live

I'll be honest after Wednesday wasnt going to watch it, however at 220 my son after football training said he wanted to watch the match really pleased we did.
Poor pen to concede and Alfie lost Henegan for their second, going forward what a transformation we were exhilarating, we had 20 plus shots and cannot remember a better forward display, team would be better with Daly in it and so would drop Zain and move Messi into a deeper role.
Loved Tisdales enthusiasm post match and can see light at the end of the tunnel cant wait now for Plymouth Saturday, be nice to win at orient but would tweak a few changes.

Football at its simplest. I know that formations are important but using the ball well when you’ve got it is the important part. When you’ve got possession you attack and those who’ve got the ball run with it and the others look for space and give an option. Midfield was a good balance.
Well done the players and Tis. I suspect some words and home truths were said after Wednesday match to have such a turn round.
UTG!

Funnily enough all our best performances have been when Westbrooke plays. Think alot of people are expecting him to be a world beater as he was built up as a marquee signing but for me Oztumer and Nicholson were bigger signings. Westbrooke isn't the tough tackling midfielder but I thought he had a great game after a shaky start and grew into the game and helped link up the play well. |

Westbrooke was played higher up the pitch today with two holding CM's behind him, so his inability to tackle wasn't an issue, well apart from the soft penalty he conceded! |

I’m so glad how wrong I was.
Thought Ehmer was faultless at right back
Upson dictated the play in the middle all afternoon,
Oztumer and Westbrooke were unplayable at times and what gems we have in Nicholson and Hanlon.
Great team performance and hopefully we can shore up the defence.

After the previous despair, have we stumbled upon a winning formation? Ehmer a revelation at full back - who would have ever envisaged that? A return to form for Kilgour. Great.
On the negative side, we are still conceding too many goals. Does anybody know when Davies will return? At present, our central defence is too error prone.
