Rovers now add coming-from-behind-to-win to their impressive repertoire. Awaiting reports from the eye-witnesses.

Poor game that rovers shaded.

Little quality on show although Murdoch put 2 great passes through for spence chances, the 2nd he converted.

Rovers goals well enough taken but defending was poor.

I see Spence was taken off injured. Not too badly I hope.

Experimental team and formation after Saturday's pumping probably correct decision although dean should still be in the team no matter what formation.

Ridiculous team and formation. The double substition was laughable as well. Rips the heart out of the team and we concede straight afterwards. We're then chasing the game with a centre-half up front, two strikers on the flanks and Chris Kane as the advanced midfielder.

Nish is taking us down with pish like that and as soon as he gets to f**k we might actually set up to win a game.

Agree about the team formation, couldn't believe it. Did he even watch the game on Saturday? Pat shouldn't have been playing and I have never seen Chris Kane having a decent game. WhenCJ comes on you are as well going home. Just about had enough now.

thought We were the better side first half, but after the substitutions we had no shape or cohesion. Crazy after doing not bad after a much changed starting set up after Saturday's farce. Make the subs and lose a goal right away and end up with Pat up front was quite ridiculous. Murdoch and Hughes should always be in midfield, and I thought Brad Donaldson did well.

Donaldson did have a good game.

Thought Kyle Miller was very quiet and should have been subbed. Surely Murdoch was injured or that's a disgraceful decision, he was the only 1 with any creativity.

When Cowden scored could only see one winner.Conceded a poor equaliser but still looked the better side on the night.Then came the bizzare double midfield substitutions which completely changed the game.Rovers went in front immediately after the changes and comfortably saw the game out against a side now chasing the game with players all out of position.Looking forward to RIE defending Nish on this one.

Hardly ridiculous. Something had to be done after Saturday and although it was ultimately another defeat, they competed well and should've led at HT. Created two clear goalscoring opportunities and failed to hit the target with both. Unfortunately, still can't get through a game without defensive lapses.

Also why is it ridiculous to put Pat up front? Is it not widely done to put a big central defender up front as a target man?

Only thing I can think off, was fresh legs. Replacing Andy with CJ would be ridiculous for any other reason.

I agree.

We were doing fine until the substitutions which are controversial.

After a 7-0 Nish has changed it and it was working.

Two opportunities all half. There's a reason for that. Spence can't play up front on his own. He's not a hold-up or link player. Smith would have been better suited to that if thats what Nish wanted to do. How did we score? Spence playing off the shoulder of the last defender. If he'd had some support he might have been able to play his natural game.

Why play Pat through the middle when we have two centre forwards on the park? shambles again.

Because we were chasing the game. No manager who had three central defenders on the park wouldn't put one of them up front as a target man when losing with minutes to go. Again,hardly a shambles.
