    Same issues

    Decent central midfielder and forward problems.
    Both were needed in January but both were neglected.
    This will be the difference between the play offs and mid table mediocrity.

    Not sure I agree mate. Remember all (and I mean ALL) of that was blamed on Tony Mowbray. Not noticed and wondered why his newly promoted Sunderland side are above us in the league and are sat on a healthy play-off spot, whereas we are not? he is doing a great job, because guess what? He was never as bad as everyone said. And when he was chased out of here, me and other did state we may bring ion another manager, and nothing will really change. The bloke who everyone decided was crap, was actually always doing a good job here.
    That was a great point last night. We battled really well to get back in it after falling behind late on. Our heads didn't drop. Where they could have quite easily. We are starting to look more solid, but its not as pleasing on the eye.
    What we are is right in this play off hunt. We are as much in it as any other side in or around the play offs. Not one of their clubs fans are continually looking for the negatives.
    I just don't know what some Rovers fans want or expect? But its pretty clear it will never be good enough whatever it is, and whatever we do.
    This season may well end up like the others.

    Why did anyone expect it to be widley different? A new manager and a season and stabilising is pretty much what we all expected? We have no money. We have spent around £1.5m on transfers. Burnley have spent well over £50m Robin.
    We are pretty much above where anyone thought we would be? But its still considered not good enough.
    I just dont get that.

    if the EFL had not screwed us over O'Brien we probably would be doing a little better. The same people that will allow Mna City to cheat every season for the last 10 years and will do nothing. Not just think the whole thing is stacked massively against us? And yet its still all our fault. I just dont get that. Its our club this. If we dont stand up for ourselves a bit and show some resolve nobody else will. The EFL treat us terribly. The media have not got a clue.
    Its a little ott when all our fans continually do this.

    Mowbray is a middle of the road guy nothing more nothing less.
    Yes he is doing well at Sunderland but they won't stay there,I guarantee that.
    For the record,I like tony mowbray but he had reached his limit at our club.
    Things can be achieved on a budget,look at Luton Town for example.
    I expected mid table this season and that's just about what will be achieved.
    I had no lofty expectations like some of our fanbase but you are always thinking what if.
    Great point last night as you said.
    Positives to be had.
    Pears great again
    Carter great again
    JRC great again
    2 tough places in Watford and west brom and we were unbeaten in both.
    Positives yes Positives.
