Has the attendance been mentioned yet? 8030 (352) At least the attendance is over 8,000. We've had a dire home crowd this year. Boxing Day crowd will be bumper if we nick this.

Ollie Clarke these days. Really feel like he's playing just beyond his peak level. Gives away too many fouls, too many yellows, reds, suspensions...

Would have taken that at the start.
Neither side created too many real scoring opportunities so 0-0 was about right.
What a pi$$ poor ref though.

Entertaining game despite being 0-0, deffo not a bore draw and a fair result on the balance of play, thought the Ref was as poor as the weather today, a good point I feel after an unsettled week, a credit to the players and the remaining staff!... COYB.

Shame we couldnt nick it but to me that result signals that this team really do have what it takes to go all the way this season. After the week they/us have had its massively positive.

Absolutely fantastic 0-0. We deserved that point. Tony Craig is an absolute rock.
Graham who?

They were no better than us. Shame we couldn't have nicked it, would be 2nd in table.
So glad that we've never been a team of blatant cheats and divers like the disgrace we played against today. 17 the worst offender
Referee not fit to do the job, they sussed him out after 5 mins and had him in their pockets all game.
Nichols tried for about half an hour, guess that's progress of a kind.

The way he organises, does his job, and is bringing on the youngsters around him - all credit to him. My personal POTS so far.

The apple obviously doesn't fall far from the tree when it comes to setting out to influence/control referees. Ferguson junior learnt more than a few tricks from Ferguson senior IMO and, unfortunately, they still work quite well in many instances.

Ferguson junior learnt more than a few tricks from Ferguson senior IMO and, unfortunately, they still work quite well in many instances. These officials must talk to each other, the assessors must brief them as to what to expect. How do clubs keep getting away with it? Just book 17 the first time he runs straight in to someone at a corner and then throws himself on the floor. Then it stops happening and the officials have control. I would be ashamed if I supported that, and I honestly think we would get on our players' backs if they behaved in that way. It's pathetic and hugely frustrating to watch. There were 3 people in the ground who didn't seem to realise what was happening. How can that be?

Referee sends off 5 from one side in first 20 minutes. Match abandoned. Crowd well happy.

It was a good game with some good performances but we do need clarke-harris fit and staying at club as were just too light weight up front without him. Unlike others i thought the ref had a good game and often ignored toney's falling over antics.

seemed to me that their crew were having a personal Facebook chat on the pitch with the Ref throughout the game, typical Ferguson father and son approach , good point for Rovers against a team that IMO will fall away as the season goes on, as they sort of became more unsettled when the pace was upped against them,proved a point in the way we played that we can compete against teams in the upper half

Stood at front between both dug outs today, a new position for me and a dif experience. Impressed by mahers barking of instructions, maybe all are managers do that, but I havent been close enough to notice before.

Just book the first one or two that either dive or chase you around trying to do your job for you. The alternative is for teams like Peterborough to run the game in the way they did today.
