I'm a Rovers fan who was at the game last night and to a certain extent I agree with the original post on this thread. The penalty was VERY generous and I think justice was done when it was saved but I thought Oldham deserved a goal lead at the break and were unlucky not to have it when Windass hit the bar. That said, I can't remember too many other near misses despite you dominating possession. We - Rovers - we poor in the first half. Our passing was awful, we couldn't hold the ball up front and a couple of shots from range were about all we managed in the opening 45. What happened at half time I don't know because both sides were unrecognisable after the break. Right from the kick off we should have taken the lead when our midfielder - Lines - was through on goal but he dragged his shot wide. The goal came soon after and I thought Duffy was slightly fortunate because I'm pretty sure his shot would have been saved if it wasn't for the deflection. Having said that he did well to work the opening and it was a good ball through to him that created the chance. The second goal is a free kick we've nearly scored from on a number of occasions and it was nice to see it finally come off. Obviously it was meant to go straight in from Lambert but if you create space to have a shot from 6 yards there is always the chance it will fall kindly. Hughes had that one chance in the second half where he missed his kick but I can't actually remember our keeper having a save to make. If anything I thought we looked more like increasing our lead on the break. Lambert had 2 efforts from which he would often score. I'm not quite sure what happened to you guys in the second half yesterday because I was impressed with you when you played us at our ground back in October - a draw would have been a fair result - and you were on top during the first half last night. I still think you'll finish in the top 6 and will have as much chance as any of the other teams in the play offs. I don't know whether he's scored many lately but I thought Lee Hughes was poor last night. He looked really low on confidence and in need of a rest. Good luck for the rest of the season.
