Like you, and perhaps everyone else, I am at a loss over Rovers substandard defence. At times it beggars belief.

Let's hope priority (at last) is placed on this area, in particular around the PTB area. IMO this is where the main damage is being done, and seeing so many Rovers players on the ground in that area is bordering on criminal.

Is it the players fault or the coaching staffs, I don't know and TBH I don't care as long as they fix it and fix it sooner rather than later.

I'll give you a clue......poor coaching and poor recruitment.

Coaching and Recruitment, thats ironic, those were the 2 areas I really thought Peacock would improve you guys. He's so respected in the game I thought he'd be able to work the oracle in convincing players to come. I also thought he would influence the defensive part of Rovers game but I haven't seen that just yet. Maybe he's just not had enough time ?

But look, the season is long. You win now't in January and maybe Peacock isn't involved in any coaching activity ? I don't know ?? So best we just wait and see how Chessy and Poching fixes you up.

Its a good thing you know where you are now rather than with 6 games to go, and when the grounds are bit harder then your lighter pack may start show. On Sunday we did run over you a bit but we were hot and you weren't. You'll get better thats for sure. Are our derby friendlies really a good marker for the rest of the season ? I think not.

Its a long season chaps, no-one knows how your going to go, all you can do is get behind your team and make the noise you always do.

Minns Thornley and Mulhern look good players. However the rest ain't convincing. We needed to recruit to certain positions and haven't despite the obvious evidence of last season.
