Enigma Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 We don’t look like bottle merchants thoNeither did Ayr around November/December time. Nobody wins the league in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardy Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Arbroath looked decent from the highlights. Rovers looked like the fluffed a couple of decent opportunities mainly Flanagan and Milne. Arbroath will obviously think that after playing us after one game that they have nothing to worry about, but the same could be said for ourselves to be honest. The next time we meet the Rovers will be fitter and stronger. No question about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Campbell goes from absolutely disgusted with a draw to very happy with a draw in the space of 4 minutes in his interview. Strange lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Had time to reflect on the game, a draw is probably a fair result, we had a good few chances to bang and didn’t, and Arbroath looked a threat every time they were in the box. Bobby Linn absolutely raped Murray down the right, and Murray just invited him every time, gave him to much space & time.Thomson - Great few saves, which earned us the draw. Crane - played ok, a few poor crosses but done fineBene - fineDavo - lucky to stay on, seen challenges like that in the middle of the park sent off before. Murray - had a shocker!! Flanagan - bad day at the officeBig Nat - superbHendry - deservedly so, man of the match Vaughan - hacked down, didn’t get going Milne - I don’t want him near the starting XI again, he gets bitched off it all the time, and why didn’t he just hit it right at the end, looks worse on the highlights too. Nesbit - Poor first half, bad miss hit on the half chance, better 2nd half. Matthews looked sharp when he came on, which is good, I think come 2 weeks time, Milne will be out and Matthews back in, with Duggan starting alongside Nesbit.

1320Lichtie Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Nisbet is in acres of space for our goal, in open play, in the area where the right back should have under control. Pish, you've got ahead of yourself and worked up about Thomson, nothing to do with him, it's Swankie's fault, if the ball has actually stayed in play. If Thomson was marking Nisbet the only thing that would've happened differently would be the ball hitting the net 2 seconds earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, pin it on the dressing room wall or write in felt tip pen on the back of a stand or whatever it is you guys do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You forgot the ref who gave you every decision. A real homer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Campbell goes from absolutely disgusted with a draw to very happy with a draw in the space of 4 minutes in his interview. Strange lad. "their subs are telling us is a yard out..."We didn't have a single sub out when the goal went in, and even then they don't warm up on the railway side.

basher brash Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Think the ref was inept regarding decisions for both teams , You just have to see the shocking tackles against Lewis Vaughan that went unpunished for starters great tactics from Mr Campbell it’s a pity the Rovers didn’t do like wise to Bobby Linn the only threat Arbroath had IMO. Maybe lucky to get a point but sitting just 4 points behind the leaders and playing under our 3rd different manager,continually having to change the team due to injuries every week I’ll take that, interesting that Arbroath fans think we are very average but how would they have coped losing the players we have had to to injuries for instance imagine Bobby Linn, Gavin Swankie, Ryan Wallace missing for 3-4 games from there side?

Hammerafc Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Thought Swankie looked like he was fouled regardless of the ball being in/out of play. Davidson was lucky to stay on with that tackle looking at it again.I would have taken a draw going into this game but a bit dissapointed with it overall.Still great start to the season and with Doris to come back it's looking like a good season.

Gold/Kadar are capable but not in the same league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still along way to go but from a Rovers perspective we will only get better under McGlynn stewardship and hopefully clear our injury situation as for Arbroath don’t now how they will cope in regards to collecting injuries/ suspensions in the season ahead especially being part time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign of champions.This thread is going to be fantastic to bump for one set of fans at the end of the season.Everybody knows Rovers are favorites for the title. Biggest budget, biggest fanbase and only full time team in the league it's hardly surprising.We're top on merit though but only a quarter in so long way to go and a lot of hard games to come. If rovers end up winning the league I don't think bumping this thread will be a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
