[Brighton Sky Blue]

Their pitch is a hell of a lot better than the surface at StAndrews.
The pitch had a big impact on our press that day. Brentford couldn't cope with the surface.
Interesting that in the games where we just got rid, banged it forward and picked up pieces or set pieces, we won three on the trot.
Back to a slightly more footballing style last week and we struggled....
Who'd take a season of industrial style football next year if it yielded better results??

I don’t think it was ‘more footballing’ and not do I think we were really playing much anti football before. It’s more been to do with tempo and intensity which we couldn’t maintain after 3 high energy games in a week

He’s shite headless chicken couldn’t stand him when he was here eother

Keogh maybe slow and passed it now, but anyone that didn't realise he was a good player for us is a bit of a fool. That said Tavares confidence must be up after the game in midweek, so might be nice to see him come on for the last half hour and give Keogh a bit of a run around.

Totally agree - but their defenders (in general) are not up to passing football. Further forward, they are a bit better at it (although i see Campbell up front is out injured). It will be interesting to se what team MR puts out (nice to see us play without pressure, and have a real go). Would look a lot easier on the eye with 5 away wins in the bag (having only picked up 2 just a couple of weeks ago or so)

He was consistently a good player for us. One of the better defenders we had in the Championship

Robins will have to determine if we have the energy to press high up the pitch.
If we don't and we still try that approach then if you are correct about them higher up the pitch, we will play right into their hands.
Let's hope they are feeling a bit of pressure today to get some sort of a result.
I hope he picks the strongest side possible today out of respect to the teams in the relegation mixer, although you could argue that we have earned the right to pick whatever end of season team we like!!

 

[Frostie]

Hope Tavares gets a run out today

Thought you'd already decided he wasn't good enough based on a few posts on the Rochdale forum?

Couldn’t agree more

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Couldn’t agree more

Probably one of the better defenders we have had since getting relegated from the Prem.

No Matty Godden???

nice to see fankaty start and Pask on the bench

 

[Frostie]

Injury again for Dacosta & Godden?

 

[jordan210]

Tav on the bench hope he gets 15 mins

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Hilssner not in Oldham’s squad (heard he was sent back). Mason on the bench for St Mirren

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Good to see Pask back on the bench after that nasty incident at Bournemouth

 

[Evo1883]

Injury again for Dacosta & Godden?

I seen something the other day where he went home to see his kid for the first time In a while , maybe Robins gave him a week off for personal reasons who knows

 

[stevefloyd]

Godden knackered again or do the rumours start here

 

[CCFCBat]

In Goddens interview he said he had to rest his foot for the whole summer so it makes sense he has another 2 weeks rest now we don’t need him

Makes more sense

 

[larry_david]

Burroughs will make his debut second half then. Decent

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Absolutely and a good chance for us to assess Gyokeres

 

[hill83]

So glad we are safe. But slight downside means I couldn’t give a fuck about this game now. Roll on the summer and roll on next season.

Enjoy.

Is that the same Sanogo that was a wonder kid on football manager 2011?

Yeah definitely. I just won’t be sniffing about on here whinging is what I mean.

 

[robbiethemole]

Derby and Rovrum both on hesgoal

 

[procdoc]

Yeah I see what you mean. To be fair it wasn’t too bad after the Preston game

 

[Frostie]

Pitch looks really good for April. Might see 2 sides trying to play some good stuff here.
