I believe the stats actually are that we conceded 13 penalties and not the beneficiary of 13.
1st half Rovers were canned by James Child and in particular for about 10-15 mins, which resulted in the warning and subsequent binning.
Salford by comparison seemingly conceded a lot less, emphasised by the ironic chants - but conceded something like 3 in a minute right in front of the Rovers fans.
In truth, I thought Child seemingly gave the warning as an after thought, resulting from calls from the away terrace rather than off his back. Again, whenever he pinged Salford in the 2nd half, it was in front of us and after the binning calls etc, seemingly looked at his watch as an after thought, as 'oh yeah ... they're on a warning' ....
He hardly inspires confidence ....

Just watched it on HKR TV.
Not nearly so bad as I thought it would be. We were only behind for 5 minutes. Admittedly, the most important 5.
In my opinion, we played OK first half and some things worked. A few didn't, otherwise we could have been further ahead, but I've seen plenty of good teams miss chances.
Second half I expected to see a collapse but really it was just our old problem of not being able to clear our lines and keep the opposition in their 40. Our backs do OK and give me hope for the future, if we can keep them, but individually none of our forwards inspire me much. But we pretty much knew that before the season started, we hoped we could just score at least one more than we conceded and we've done pretty much that at home but not away.
I hope its not all gloom, all we need (sounds easy I know) is a watertight defensive pack to avoid losing, then let the backs win us the game. We've got the flair that you can't teach, surely our back-room staff can teach better tackling technique and defensive teamwork?
Anyway, not feeling as bad as I was on Sunday night. Roll on the next game.

our pack your backs, good team that

Whoa there. I come one here and post a mix of banter and reasoned posts. I stopped responding to the problem poster a long time ago but he's like a faithful hound and follows me around. I can't stop him responding to my posts but certainly don't encourage it in any way. Some of the things he posts are pretty disgraceful and I hope there are no kids who read this forum. The mods should have nipped it in the bud a long time ago but seemingly aren't interested despite all of the posts being against the AUP and the forum no swearing policy. by all means, if you're unhappy with what he posts then raise your issue with the board or even the forum mods. I'll continue to ignore him as I couldn't care less

Have you ever had an opinion of your own?
