Possession yes but so much passing backwards we are going no-where.Defence all over the place and Thomas off the pace.Evans needs to share the free kicks as they have been totally wasted.

Attendance 4,769 most of those unhappy souls saw BRFC muster only 2 shots on target in 93 minutes of play.
4 subs made at half-time, but as someone said in an earlier post mocking them, Boring Wood march on to the 3rd round.
Hey ho, it happened to Argentina, Germany, Japan and today Belgium...

Oh deary me .. A stroll in the park for BW. Credit to them, they looked like they wanted it more, took one or two of their chances and deserved to win. All watched on TV.
We had a shocker! First ball in atrocious, we couldn't attack the ball in the box, it just didn't fall to us and lack of quality in the final third plus (again) slow start out the traps mean some GasHeads paid a few quid to watch that and be humiliated!
Evans, Gibbons (again), Whelan even Scotty couldn't deliver a decent ball from the flanks....when Trev Clarke slipped in a lovely shooting opportunity, Coburn missed it and Aaza fired well wonder - he was poor too.
Thomas jittery. Gibson looked lethargic. Gordon.... just didn't look like a defender. Again.
Fair enough, they used their research and resources to turn up a result. Really think their Central defenders bossed the game and looked organised.... good luck to them with the draw on Monday and rest of the season.
Us!? Holy moly! A Sunday to forget where too many established players didn't turn in a performance to warrant picking next Fri, except maybe Saunders who tried. A bit!

First half was abysmal; they looked like they`d all been out on the piss last night. We were completely outmuscled and outthought, and BW looked like scoring every time they attacked. Second half was better, but never really looked like getting one goal back, never mind two. They looked like a team a division above us, not two below.

Boreham Wood continued their FA Cup exploits by beating League One side Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Stadium to reach the third round for the third year running. Wood, who knocked out AFC Wimbledon and Bournemouth last season before losing to Everton, took a grip on the game with goals by defenders Will Evans and David Stephens. Members of the Rovers squad had been affected by illness in the days leading up to the game and the hosts failed to produce a shot on target in the opening half. Although Joey Barton's team looked marginally better after the break, it was not until the 82nd minute that Wood keeper Nathan Ashmore made his first save of note, denying substitute Harvey Saunders, as they suffered only their second defeat in 13 games. Highlights and all the stats below:www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63708754

Oh FFS, just woke up to this.
Sorry, no excuses this is a piss poor result and the players must take responsibility for being outperformed by a team two leagues below them.
It will wear off but I'm feeling angry as **** right now.

Watched it on tele. We were absolute sh*te. The worst I've seen Rovers play for a long time. Not a lot from the dugout either. It felt like "Right lads, let's get it out of the way and we get the next cup Saturday off".

Such a disappointing result today.Barton never seems to understand you can't underestimste the opposition whilst our owner ponces around Qatar looking for anybody wearing a replica Rovers shirt or with a St Georges flag with Bristol Rovers splashed all over it. You can't help but feel our priorities aren't where they should be right now.
