League Two Magpies (2) v Rovers (1)

[Sparky]

Leake must surely be injured. I know he has a poor game last week but not even on the bench

 

[Sparky]

Merrie caught out as they get in behind him but it’s cleared

 

[Ian]

1-0. Dear me..

 

[Ian]

Turnbull lazy defending, gifts the ball to McGoldrick who stabs it into the bottom corner unchallenged.

Are we playing 4 3 3 ?

 

[Ian]

Ohh god, the defending is all over the place. Merrie is not looking comfortable at all.

 

[Sparky]

And we’re behind. Shock horror

 

[Ian]

Should be 2-0. Langstaff missed from 5 yards out.

This Daws experiment is not going to last long is it

Looks like it.

 

[Sparky]

Should be 2-0 down as langstaffe misses a sitter

 

[Ian]

Morris runs into the box, load of space and blasts it wide.

 

[Higgy 2]

Looking like 451 tbh. Even then Jolley is in his own half as well.

 

[Sparky]

Losing and 45 mins from having 4 defeats from 5 league games.

Lewis must have something on Dawes to keep playing. As for hawkes we might as well push him out of the door the way he’s being treated. Dennis playing well out of position and looks uncomfortable.

Dawes is out of his depth

I think you could be right. Players looking uncomfortable all over the pitch. I don't get the selection at all. We need changes and we need a big improvement second half.

The problem is worsened by the effects on players like Turnbull who we know are very good at this level but he looks half hearted and like he’s not happy at all

 

[Ian]

It's just all too easy for County. No pressure, no tackling, too slow, just letting County play. They've probably not had an easier game this season.

We are partly being hampered by previous recruitment, Lewis on decent wages 2 year deal is poor and giving an Injury prone Walker 2 & half years and paying a fee was ridiculous.
Need some bodies in and out this week and change of formation but I don't think Dawes will do it as not upto it.

 

[Sparky]

Looking devoid of confidence. Morris with poor control, hendry giving the ball away and Yarney giving away a stupid free kick

 

[Sparky]

How is it still only 1-0 as mcgoldrick hits the post.
