It could well be Bolton all over again. Big and brutal side just crushing us slowly. 4-0 feels about par I think.
Gueye coming on at half time was the difference, a very underrated player
Oblowu looks like a different player in a 3 without wood
Think we dropped off around the hour mark, then downhill from there. No way could we keep up that intensity. We can’t do it in League Two let alone against a Premier League side. This was a very good performance largely but a predictable result.

How anyone can comment with any tinge of negativity after that performance is beyond me

How anyone can comment with any tinge of negativity after that performance is beyond meHe's not being negative he's making an observation, and he's exactly right. They were non league for 65 mins then their premier league began to every so slightly show and they began to make those triangles and through balls. That's nothing negative against us. Just the way it is

You just needed another goal when you were leading and I think you would have beaten Everton last night .Easy for many of the neutrals to say Everton were awful but Rovers made them look awful for two thirds of the game .Plenty for Rovers to take from the game and build on .Got away with it did Everton and probably they shouldn't have done .

They do have the ability and IF they want it they do have the fight. We can come back IF we are more forceful off the ball and confident on it...it's like the injuries have become the excuse and not the reason for poor performances.
