Was there two Turnbulls on the pitch?
I thought he was totally dominated.I thought he had a decent game and showed a lot of character after he got his arse smacked by Mcguinnes last week. They tried a similar thing this week with a big man putting himself about a bit and he stood up to it.
I am still concerned. We look lightweight and lack a physical presence on the pitch and with McCann holding his hamstring when he went off you have to feel he will be out for a couple of weeks or so.Burge - 7

Nice to come away with a win when we were 2nd best for 70 minutes of the game.
We'll play a lot better than that this season and come away with nothing, maybe just maybe the tide is turning this season and we won't get relegated after all!!

The lack of physical strength is a massive worry and we can't go through the season keep being bullied by teams.
We need at least 3 more players and January is some way off yet.
We were bullied off the park, they were helped by a very weak ref once again.
What happened to Stevenson on halfway just before half time when Bigi kicked off with their guy, Stevenson struggled after that not sure if carrying a knock or what!?
I can give Burge less.Burge - 6 - you can't really give him less as he didn't really do anything wrong. He is a poor goalkeeper who palms shots away often across his goal and has a bizarre kicking style but hadji10 thinks he's the next Gordon Banks so there you go
Sterry - 5 he got caught a lot in possession and struggled. Sordell covered a lot for him.
Page - 7 never understand the negativity. He's clearly not a wing back but very competent as a left sided defender.
Turnball - 6 he did ok there wasn't that much threat down the middle
Willis - 7 - despite some very high ratings he wasn't great in the first 20 minutes - he was pulled all over the place. He had a strong second half but in the first got turned easily a couple of times
Sordell - 7 despite someone's claims this is his best position he was often playing right wing back. That said his application and defensive duties was second to none. He's good and he's very commited.
Stevenson - 6 - after the Lord majors show. One of mowbrays failings was his disregard to opponents tactics. They saw the room he was given and blocked him.
Bigi - 5 - got caught in possession a lot which again is opponents doing their homework. The other thing about him is he constantly yells for the ball when he's in no position to receive. Allowing him to take set pieces is laughable.
Lameries - 5 - despite the assist the guy is a passenger for 90% of the game and the play acting is embarrassing.
Agyei - 7 - looks very raw but he causes defences issues as Murphy did in a different way last year.
McCann - injured and given how the midfield played without him that's a worry
Reid - 6 - a player with zero football brain unfortunately.
Tbf you've given the manager a 4 for a 2-0 home win.I thought he was totally dominated.
This is flawed logic. So you will drop him after he lets in a lot of goals and we lose?Burge - 5 - He wasn't tested, awful kicking, glued to his line, but it was a clean sheet so should keep his place.

The general consensus on here for months has been that RCC is superior. Admittedly, its the best of a poor pair.

Because he got it wrong.Tbf you've given the manager a 4 for a 2-0 home win.
They weren't amazing. They were woeful in front of goal and in some ways got what they deserved.Your having a laugh otis. A 4??? His 2 subs were pivotal to the win
Rochdale had better eof game but fuk me why acting like they are amazing and we are shit?
What was pivotal was they were crap up front, and on the rare times we went forward they were crap in defence.Your having a laugh otis. A 4??? His 2 subs were pivotal to the win

Exactly! Absolutely spot on.What was pivotal was they were crap up front, and on the rare times we went forward they were crap in defence.
So if you thought about it would you agree that they were poor going forward?It was average from us today but I think you're going a bit over the top Otis. For all their domination Burge didn't have a meaningful save to make due to our strong defending, and then we picked them off smartly on the counter to grab our goals.
Admittedly not the way we want to play at home but on clear chances from both sides we probably deserved the win.
Haven't said otherwise.It was average from us today but I think you're going a bit over the top Otis. For all their domination Burge didn't have a meaningful save to make due to our strong defending, and then we picked them off smartly on the counter to grab our goals.

No, agree. Thought he worked his socks off today. Just wish he would take more care of the ball.Venus is mowbray and mowbray is the saviour. And now we March up table. Listen to covcity4life
Draw at Walsall will be great.
Also bigi tried to make things happen. That's why he fucked up sumtimes. Give me that over sum1 who doesn't try like Stephen Hughes or Sammy clingan
So maybe it was the game plan to stifle there attacking threat and then pick them off on the counter when the opportunity presented itself, in that respect the game plan worked perfectly and Venus gets a 10.Haven't said otherwise.
Didn't stop us being awful though.
Two things would should be proud of today and one was the way we defended to a man and the other was our being clincal in front of goal.
We won, probably deserved to win, but played very poorly.
We play like that every week and we are going to fine we may well get hammered.
We were lucky in one thing and that was that Rochdale were so poor in the final third.
I think the Rochdale fan analysis put on here is pretty spot on. We were the worst side they had faced for some time, but caused their own downfall.
