Loads of Rovers supporters tonight around me were feeling sorry for you but I'm having none of that.

Tonight Rovers had 3 quite outstanding players, Abdull, Lewis and Litten who you decided weren't good enough for you, all now in the England squad.

You only have yourselves to blame.

HDMail - Tony Smith

“ if you can see someone not trying then please show me “

wow

Re: On To Leeds : Sat Apr 15, 2023 12:28 am  

Not sure Smith has a clue how to get us out of this mess, which is a real worry.

I wouldn't be bothered we released any player from the main squad or if Smith quit right now.

Just can't see another win, Wakey and Cas are rubbish, but they have some fight at least.

It's time for the 9 match Barometer prediction TF. Will we finish 11th?

Re: On To Leeds : Sat Apr 15, 2023 2:29 am  

Even blind Freddie can see where we are 9th is the guide to where we finish give or take 1 spot up and down !

Unless there is a momentous paradigm shift such as Wakey had when they hired John Kear

I still have to question Smiths definition of
Trying

I haven’t seen the tries yet but I will list the lack of effort and it will take a lot of finger tapping !!

Come on Tony - please don’t treat us stupid !
Of course they’re not trying as hard as they can FFS we are a utter embarrassment

It's not that they aren't trying, many of them are just not good enough and last night that included both halves and the hooker so little wonder we are where we are.

Watch all the tries Leeds scored and see if defensively they tried hard enough ?

Watch the whole match and watch the small things - winning the ruck, supporting the ball runner , chasing kicks etc etc

Re: On To Leeds : Sat Apr 15, 2023 6:09 am  

Can't believe some are calling for Smiths head. Happened with Radford and Hodgson. Let the man get on with his job..We are not good enough ATM.

Re: On To Leeds : Sat Apr 15, 2023 6:23 am  

Leeds fan in peace…..thought that Litten at FB was great….caused us problems nearly every time we kicked to him..had several amazing kick returns

I'm hoping want Smith says outwardly regarding the player's effort does not reflect his true inward thoughts regarding this inept, spineless team we currently have (not every player).

We can all see it's a team just going through the motions with very few prepared to bend their backs.
