Worried Rovers Fan

As the start of the season came upon us i was filled with quiet optimism about the campaign ahead. With the £6m signing of highly rated youngster Nikola Kalinic and the promising loan capture of Chelsea youngster Franco Di Santo along with the returning players who missed last season due to injury i was looking forward to a productive start to the season.

Seven games into the season and as a season ticket holder i must say i'm worried about how the rest of the season will pan out. Big Sam's tactics for me are far too negative and defensive. With all the striking options now available to Rovers with the new signings plus the emergance of young Canadian attacker Junior Hoillet, Big Sam continues to play with just one striker with a five man midfield lacking any real creation, with too many defensive minded midfielders who arn't really up to Premiership quality.

At first i was enthusiastic about the prospect of Sam being in charge, but after seeing displays this season and his tactics i'm not so sure!
