I think for these games you are going to need a very good fast internet connection at your end.

I am on virgin cable 120 connection and no problems my end.

My streams been fine, not buffered or dropped at all.

Good first half by the Stags. They should be 2-0 up. Mal Benning should have scored from Corey O'Keeffe's cross and George Maris should have scored from Harry Charsley's cross. Mal Benning should also have done better from a short corner when he shot over the bar. Mal's finishing has not been good in recent seasons.

Rollin Menayese looks good on the ball at the back and Ryan Sweeney has made a couple of good tackles and interceptions. Farren Rawson is just a no nonsense defender and is happy just to boot the ball away when necessary. Harry Charsley has probably been the pick of the midfield and has looked bright and made some good passes. He had a curling shot tipped over the bar. Jordan Bowery is working hard up front and has closed down well. He seems to be a good link player.

Rotherham have just had three shots from the edge of the area which have been easily gathered by Marek Stech and a couple of crosses from the left which have gone across the goal.

Worried about the support to the front two. Bowery doesn’t look good enough, but Cook trying hard.

No problems at all for me,good picture and commentary. I use Google Chrome as Safari never works for me when streaming games.
Very impressed with Menayese and Charsley. What a refreshing change to have a young team battling for the ball. They are organised and strong in the tackle. Excellent first half.

Watching via laptop, Chrome browser, HDMI cable to TV. No interruptions at all through the first half, sound is fine. Picture is a little jerky, but that seems to be a feature of football streaming and it's quite watchable.
Meyenese looks impressive, also Stech and Charsley. Benning gets in good positions but no sign of any firepower up front.

[The One]

Thank you

[MTFCMusings]

That was never a free kick

[Sneag]

Perfect timing for a drop out. Sounds like it was a goid goal.

[Big yella]

From what’s been said I take it they’ve scored any clue as to what happened

[The One]

Who has scored ?

[S7AGS]

Has dean got a sore throat?

[Big yella]

Oh so it’s all our fault even though it’s only ever your service I have a fault with.

[Bradders]

The stream seems to have hit problems after 5 minutes of the second half.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

Mattock and Lindsay have come on in the places of Clarke and Wood.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

Ryan Sweeney gave the ball away. Rollin Menayese made a good recovery tackle but ref gave a free kick which Joe Mattock scored from.

[Sneag]

Switched browsers. Seems better all round now.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

Crooks, Jones and Thompson make way for A. MacDonald, Harding and Ogbene

0-2 - Ogbene crosses from right and Smith scores with a cheeky back heel

[MTFCMusings]

Poor defending from Benning, should’ve stopped that cross.

[The One]

Poor defending from Benning, should’ve stopped that cross.

Do you feel we need another left sided player ?

[NorthLondonStag]

Their free kick was excellent. Keeper had no chance.

Their second goal felt a bit soft, but no replays so difficult to tell.

[MTFCMusings]

Poor defending from Benning, should’ve stopped that cross.

Do you feel we need another left sided player ?

Not necessarily, O’Keeffe can play there. In an ideal world, yes.

Benning has just come off and Gordon has come over to the left.

[The One]

Would like to see Reid get some time

[gazza1988]

Need to change up the front line. 2 target men who suddenly can't win a header won't do a thing.

[Tippy Tappy Football]

We've given the ball away too much in the second half and have struggled to build pressure and attacks.
