League Two Wimbledon v Rovers

[Rockford's Love Child]

Ten PM the evening before a game and still no match thread ? That probably sums up the level of enthusiasm and engagement at the moment.

The hosts are currently in a terrible run, 23rd in the ten game form table and thrashed at home by Swindon last week. Dawes surely could not have a better opportunity to pick up his first away win. I think it will be the same team that started against Grimsby.

It looks like we will take about 500 fans which is not bad in the circumstances, which many no doubt attracted by a first visit to the new Plough Lane.

Agreed that there is an apathy around the club at present. At least the new ground factor is inspiring a decent SWA turnout for Rovers last away game of the season.
Wimbledon were masters of the dark arts in their win at PP earlier in the season, aided by a weak referee. Surprised that they’ve slumped so low, but will want to end their last home game on a positive note.
Haven’t heard anything about team news for this one, wonder if the threadbare squad will be boosted by any returning from injury. There was talk of Charlie Jolley getting some game time before the season ends.
No idea how this will pan out, perhaps another draw.

Good on the fans to keep going I got a day off today so just going to chill 1-0 Saunders getting it

Finish our away games on a high with a win 2 1

 

[Ian]

Yeah, I've lost some interest now with only a few meaningless games left. Think we'll draw this 1-1.

 

[Keith Hill (Bolton)]

0-0 all over it!
But knowing us, we will lose to the bottom form team!

 

[Sparky]

Would be nice to finish the away fixtures this season with a win.

If and a big if we win both last two games I can see Daws and parky staying longer

 

[Sparky]

Unchanged line up

 

[Boz]

Though we do have a spare keeper in Joe Murphy on the bench

 

[Sparky]

I’m falling asleep watching this. Another pre season friendly style game in the sun. Saunders off injured for Sam Taylor.
No real chances of note and neither side looks great in the final third

 

[Ian]

Yes, a pretty mundane 1st half.

 

[Boz]

Not able to follow just looking at the Twitter and BBC updates but sounds like the hosts on top. Another injury, Saunders one of our best players in the last few months

 

[Sparky]

Another game under Dawes when hughes is taken off at half time. OConnor on

 

[Ian]

Ohh my... Taylor fluffing a great chance to go ahead.

 

[Sparky]

Hawkes with a dipping shot tipped over

 

[Sparky]

Great block from Davies. We’re defending well to be fair but nothing up front

 

[Sparky]

Famous last words….a thru ball to ex rovers youngster el hamadi and we’re behind

 

[Sparky]

Once again we’re behind to an out of form opponent and look toothless up front.

 

[Boz]

Seems like that’s been coming.
