Hi folks... another game, another let down and it was another time where Rovers have been well ahead in a game and let it slip.  Is it a hoodoo or something more mundane? Check out my full analysis of where our season went wrong after Ipswich at home.

Congratulations to Jordan Rhodes, who became the first Rover since Alan Shearer to score twenty goals in three successive seasons, a feat made more remarkable by the fact that the team doesn't even create much for him.

Farewell to David Dunn, a fine player whose potential has been severly hampered by injury.  Dunny has been a fantastic servant to Rovers down the years, especially during the Graham Souness' tenure when he, Damien Duff and Matt Jansen headed a team of exciting talent who made their mark in Premier League.

Having reviewed the game, it looks like Rovers where undone by two good goals... however that does not mean that there weren't mistakes involved.  The free kick was well struck but I feel that Eastwood should have set up the wall better.  The second goal was familiar as well with noone alert enough in closing down the striker.

In short was another game that showed our season in a nutshell.  Rovers dependent on two good strikers' goals,  switch off a couple of times and are roundly punished

With the transfer embargo likely continuing, Gary Bowyer has to get out on the training field and sort out why these lapses keep occurring.  I think that he may need a stronger pair of glasses as he has yet to identify the problem!
