League Two Rovers v Cambridge

[Rockford's Love Child]

Good goal, from our first effort.

Playing well and clearly the better side though.

 

[Sparky]

A big set back sees spearing for off injured for Morris

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Ffs, Spearing off injured, looks like a hamstring.

 

[Ian]

Ohh no, hope Spearing is OK.

 

[Sparky]

Ffs, Spearing off injured, looks like a hamstring.

i was thinking a couple of months ago what a great spine we have with Scottie, Clarke, spearing and Vaughan. Now potentially 3 out of the 4 will be missing for a few games or worse

 

[Sparky]

Murphy with a smart save keeps Cambridge out

 

[Boz]

Playing well and clearly the better side though.

Agreed. Spearing’s injury a worry. Chances at both ends now.

 

[Ian]

Some great play for Rovers, causing Cambridge lots of problems with Woolery, Lloyd and Feeney having good games.

 

[Sparky]

Maybe it’s a good thing we dont have a decent striker as we’ve put several crosses into the box that have been really poor and a waste

Mustn’t grumble though

 

[Ian]

Manny doing a great job against Mullin.

 

[Sparky]

A decent half defensively as Murphy has had very little to do. I think they are vulnerable at the back so more goals for us here if we can improve the delivery into the box. Feeney so unlucky with that free kick.

I’d take 1-0 now though but some of Khans back passes give me palpitations! As we know 1-0 is never enough so need another. Lloyd has had a few knocks, hope he’s ok.

 

[Rockford's Love Child]

Superb half from Rovers and we have dominated. The only disappointment is we don't have a second goal as you would expect Cambridge to improve.

 

[FridayNightMemories]

Khan needs to be careful with his back passing, especially to a left footed keeper.

 

[Ian]

some of Khans back passes give me palpitations!

Yeah, seems to have cut that out now. The movement of the front three are causing them problems. More of the same Rovers!

Yes, and Clarke is not fully fit either.

 

[Boz]

One goal is rarely enough and on the first half showing we deserve to be further ahead. Monthe done well against both their strikers on his recall. Agree with the comments regarding Otis Khan, as well as the risky back-passes, his attacking play hasn’t been up to usual standards

 

[bigmart]

A good half, we are the better team so far but need another goal to be a bit more comfortable. Worrying the injury to spearing

 

[Ian]

We usually have a lot of possession but i think we need to be careful this half. Going to need defense to be on top form. We might be able to counter with our pace and get a second. I don't think we'll score many with these players so I think it's important to keep it tight and not give them much.

 

[FridayNightMemories]

Unsure how the wind will affect the game...

 

[Sparky]

Decent move down the right but it’s another poor cross into the box. We have to be positive and get that second goal
