MATCHWATCH : Doncaster Rovers (h)

[Hound]

Paudie injured?

[Snowflake Royal]

Paudie injured?

Seemed to walk off ok, hopefully a precaution.

Definitely looked better than Elliott going off.

[Snowflake Royal]

Looked a foul on Jacob there.

Kyerewaa struggling.

[Sutekh]

Thank god that’s over

[Jackson Corner]

Rubbish a point gained if anything.

[Hound]

19th with the 3 teams below able to get above us with their game in hand.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Well I said after Cardiff that 4 points from these two were the bare minimum for Hunt to stay in a job, and it appears we have achieved the bare minimum.

Neither performance has matched Cardiff and built upon that. We were imperfect against Northampton but probably deserved a win, today we were a long way off against a team in poor form, and seemed lost before a GK howler got us back in.

I'm not worried about relegation, but we're meandering towards a very uninspiring season. I don't think anyone can look at this performance and say we're moving in the right direction. I would not be disappointed if he's gone this week. I wouldn't be surprised either given Couhig's most recent interview.

As nan would say "What a load of shit".

[Sutekh]

12 days until the next league game, let’s hope the time in training is used wisely.

[Hound]

Noticed Cardiff also got totally outplayed by Bolton today on the stats

I thought we were fine against Northampton if not inspiring but doesn’t sound good today.

Only 2 academy players involved before the 90th min (and then one of the subs only due to injury)

Danny K playing the whole game. Another injury for Elliott

Not a great day but a point at least. Sounds like it could have been worse

[Hound]

Hunt does seem to scrape the bare minimum every time you think his job is close to untenable. Couple of scraped points here and there, 1-0 win over Northampton in a must win, decent performance in defeat at Cardiff….

[Royals and Racers]

Attendance 12,003

[windermereROYAL]

Awful, just awful, both on and off the pitch, C1871 sunk to a new low today.

Jacobs was fine.

I think he's got a few more games at least, following the win.

Whilst its all a bit lacklustre and disappointing, we've only actually lost twice in the last 11. Just far too many draws. Lose two or three in quick succession and I agree it's time and he'll go. Whilst we're still stumbling along in touch with mid-table picking up points, there's time for patience.

We could sleep walk into relegation, but any time it starts looking genuinely risky, we pull the trigger and roll the dice, with plenty of time left.

10 games in, we were on 10 points.

Since then, we've played 4, gained 5.

Lose the next one, there's no improvement in results, if not gone backwards given we lost the first three of those 10. Draw, basically no improvement, win and there is an improvement, in results.

I would say, Hunt will get a 2-3 game clock on the sack the next time he loses a game without us winning one. Or another two draws in a row. A big defeat without a win would probably be the end.

I just think we're going nowhere. We'll probably get 4 points from the next 3, climb to 17th, be utterly uninspiring but it will buy him an extra few games. And then rinse and repeat until it's February and we're still anxiously looking over our shoulder with no aspiration to look up.

I don't see a string of convincing performances and 10-12 points over 5 games that would really kick start our season, which I think the squad is capable of.

[Armadillo Roadkill]

I didn't think were as awful as many seemed to think.

The players are still giving it everything.

We are generally creating more.

We lacked the natural goal scorer we had in Marriott.

I have no problems with Lane. Kyerewaa is 80% of the way towards being a good League 1 / Championship player.

Calling for Hunt's sacking is more frustration than a result of considered analysis.

[Hound]

It’s a result of looking at the league table

[windermereROYAL]

Burton win at Dons, Rotherham win at Barnsley, 2 shock results, Wycombe tonk Huddersfield and Blackpool have a new manager bounce winning at posh, make no mistake, if things don`t improve we`re in the shit.

Personally I wouldn’t say it was a bad performance. Frustrating and blunt would be my description.

Some phases of good stuff, but final ball lacking. I think Marriott would have scored through better positioning, anticipation and finishing. Long phases of huff and puff going nowhere.

Can't say I thought we ever looked under a lot of threat. We're just always capable of conceding one goal from not a lot.

I agree with that.
