I thought there was a new rule about a 'club-developed' player in each match day squad this season. If so I don't know which of those 18 qualifies? Did Butler play in our youth teams?

Edit:

https://www.sports.legal/2017/04/part-one-home-grown-player-requirements-in-english-football-and-the-introduction-of-club-developed-players/

On 6 April 2017, the English Football League (“EFL”) announced that its 72 members clubs (each of whom compete in one of the three divisions that the EFL oversees – the Championship, League One, and League Two) had approved proposals to increase the number of “home grown players” in their match day squads for the forthcoming 2018-19 season and to also include at least one “club-developed” player.

In addition to the increase in home grown players that will be required on EFL’s clubs team sheets, a new definition will be introduced to the EFL Rules and Regulations, that of the “club-developed” player. Each EFL club will need to include one “club-developed” player in their match day squad, who will be defined as a player who has been registered with their current team for at least 12 months prior to the end of their U19 season. Should a club fail to name such a player, they will only be able to name 6 substitutes rather than the normal allocation of 7.

What about McCullogh,I think he was 19 when he joined the club,and played for Northern Ireland u19's u20's,but don't know if he qualifies with the 12 months before end of u19's bit?

[Martyn1968]

Is it a 3 O'clock on Follow as well?

Maybe that solves it. Convenient if that is the case.

Edit: McCullough was already 19 when he joined us. Maybe Beestin who was 18.

[keith79]

Copps is only 17

[drfchound]

Copps is only 17

Which explains why they keep subbing him then.
Don't want to burn him out.

Good start by us les.
We seem to be growing into the game.

[drfchound]

Great ball into Marquis by Mason but JM just glances it wide.

[i_ateallthepies]

Marquis puts a tap-in wide 

[drfchound]

Marquis misses open goal tap in after a great run by Kane.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Same chance or a different one?

Thanks, we've got to take our chances.

[PDX_Rover]

We look a completely different team to last season. The movement is a joy to watch. We look a very good team front to back.

[drfchound]

Same chance or a different one?

The marquis tap in ?
Same one mentioned by myself and pies.

[Metalmicky]

Brian Stock sent off...

[DRNaith]

Yes PDX, not sure why we're choosing to not score on the first half of league games, but the results are cracking!

[drfchound]

Brian Stock sent off...

Always was a dirty git.

[drfchound]

HT 0-0.

[les@donr]

We need to be more ruthless in games, putting chances away, problem we had last season, hoping for an excellent 2nd half display.

[Metalmicky]

According to BBC......

45'+4'
Alfie Beestin (Doncaster Rovers) wins a free kick in the defensive half.

[arkseyrover]

sky sports also have Alfie B 'winning a freekick'. Must be same short sighted reporter doing a double shift for both companies. He can surely afford to go to specsavers.

[drfchound]

Burton 1-0.

[bpoolrover]

Decent 1st half made the better chances

[PDX_Rover]
