Rob Jones and the boys will have revenge on their mind when they travel down to the Broadfield Stadium to face Crawley Town in front of the Sky cameras on Monday evening.
A late goal from Nicky Ajose gave Richie Barker’s side a fortunate 1-0 win at the Keepmoat in August and Bet Butler make Town slight favourites at 8/5 to complete the double over Rovers, who are quoted at 17/10, even though the visitors have lost just twice on the road in League 1 all season and Crawley have only won six of their 14 home games so far.
Rovers are seeking a first win in four matches but hope to have a few of their walking wounded back in action in Sussex. The draw is available at 12/5 and you can back the score at half time to be 0-0 at 2/1.
Before our match at Crawley, the FA Cup takes centre stage this weekend with League 1 well represented. After knocking out Liverpool, Oldham are 10/1 to beat their great Merseyside rivals Everton while our opponents last Tuesday, the MK Dons, are 6/4 to get the better of Barnsley having knocked out Sheffield Wednesday and QPR in the last two rounds.
Brentford are 16/1 to win their fourth-round replay at Stamford Bridge having come within seconds of knocking out the European champions in their first meeting.

Quinn
Jones
McCombe
Spurr
Cotterill
Harper
Fowler
Husband
Coppinger
Paynter
Subs - Maxted, Wakefield, Ball, Bennett, Sinclair, M.Woods, Middleton
-
Not a strong bench at all, what`s happened to Robbie Blake?
This line up emphasises the need for a couple of loanees!
-
So no Martis or Blake?
Injured
Brown, Hume, Syers,Keegan, Griffin
That's seven players injured or not available yet Brian does not think we need loanees.
-
Crawley
P. Jones, Dumbuya, Connolly, Sadler, Walsh, Adams, Bulman, Simpson, Sparrow, Clarke
Subs
Essam, Hunt, O'Brien, Elford-Alliyu, M. Jones, Torres, Maddison
Rovers
G. Woods, Quinn, Jones, McCombe, Spurr, Cotterill, Harper, Fowler, Husband, Paynter, Coppinger
Subs
Maxted, Wakefield, Bennett, Sinclair, M. Woods, Ball, Middleton
-
I'd have played Cotterill on the left. Get him going at Dumbuya.
-
When was the last time Dean put Wakefield, Ball or Middleton on the bench.
-
Get Husband charging at Dumbuya and he won't know what to do. I'd actually have given Bennett a go myself, but Hubby deserves his chance. Think we've got every chance of getting a good win tonight!
-
When was the last time Dean put Wakefield, Ball or Middleton on the bench.
Not sure what point you are making here Steve. Are you saying Dean wouldnt have had faith in the youth?
And re: your post above regarding loanees, what Brian says to the media and what he thinks in private arent necessarily the same thing. I'd expect to see a couple of new faces in very soon.
-
Muzzy needs to sort that barnet out. Looks like he's been asleep under a seagull.
-
Fowler looks to be limping already

I agree Rob, I bet behind the scenes the management are doing all they can to secure loans, but hopefully the right loans. Just because no more have arrived yet doesn't mean they wont...
I do wonder what Blake has to do to get a place?
-
Well the rovers faithful sound in good voice :thumbsup:
-
The fans sound great at least.
-
Is it just me or is Goodman a tadge anti Rovers? All I've heard is negatives as far as the Rovers are concerned.
-
I don't have sky sports and the bbc match page isn't updating (yet) apart from the league table showing we're joint tops again...

Watch it on a live steam.http://worldsucks.altervista.org/
-
Pretty uninspired from both teams so far. Copps looks our best bet going forward.
-
We look awful again.
-
We haven't turned up yet... Have we?
Fowler looks ok on the ball, Spurr has done ok and Cotts/Copps link-up has been decent, apart from that it's a bore! :laugh: :woohoo:
-
Very uninspiring so far...
-
To be fair, its all a bit cagey from both teams. Ref is again giving us nowt.
-
ffs
-
Shit.
-
Seriously. What the hell is going on?
-
Powder puff defending again...falling apart.
-
Boll***ks
-
How was that not a foul on Copps there?
Our delivery is shocking though.
Shit. Great goal to be fair, got it all to do again ffs.
-
Not sure how that wasnt given for offside tbh. Their striker was stood right in front of Woods and 2 yards offside.
-
Copps very close
-
Copps hits the post. Well, at least we need to be more positive now.
COYR!!!
-
We have nothing in midfield again, and we look poor at the back.
Is Harper even playing?
-
FFS!!! :mad: :mad:
We are shite, glad i don't go!
-
Copps denied by a bobble. Why not put your laces through that? Getting the impression it's not our night again.
-
Deserve it only one team in it we are no where near them
-
Get the impression we are poor yet again.
-
The fight just doesn't seem to be there any more. Harper has been shocking.
-
The fight just doesn't seem to be there any more. Harper has been shocking.
I'm amazed anyone can even notice him tbh.
-
The fight just doesn't seem to be there any more. Harper has been shocking.
Brian Flynn is to nice for his own good..all that b*llocks about 'best team in the league'...ever since we've looked like bleedin' muppets.
Does he have a plan 'B'? Does he ever set us up with anything other than to settle for what we start with on the off chance we might get lucky and sneak a win?
Needs to get his act together and fast.
-
McCombe looks like a Sunday league player. Just running about with no rhyme or reason, not tracking anyone at all. What is he actually doing?
-
Harper is poor, fowler looks ok so far but lacking a bit of sharpness, lacking any creativity in the middle
-
flynn out, this is shit
-
Come back quickly Hume & Keegan!
-
Paynter can't get a look in against 2 twenty year old centre halves. We should be bullying these all over the place.
-
We are boring once again. Fowler and Copps the only ones doing ok for me at the minute.
-
Top of the league ya having a laugh!!
-
Why the hell have we waited to bring players in on loan? f**king shambles.
-
We've had 1 attempt on goal and that was intended to be a cross!!
-
We've had 1 attempt on goal and that was intended to be a cross!!
We hit the post earlier, didn't we?
Frosty, how do you know they haven't been trying to secure loans????
-
Harper just did something, gave the ball away and clattered their player. What a nightmare he's having.
-
Get Jordan Ball on. At least he is hungry.
-
He's destroyed us in 5 games. We will not go up with him in charge. I never slate managers but hes killed us.
-

Trying isn't good enough. Not when your back up players aren't anywhere near good enough to come into the first team.
-

Frosty, how do you know they haven't been trying to secure loans????
Yes, which was a cross from Copps to Paynter.
-
Get in! Hubby! Was just about to post how ineffective he's been :laugh:
-
Husband :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
-
get in there young Hubby.
-
We don't deserve it but COME ON
-
Get in!
-
MY F*CKING STREAM STOPPED BUT I KNOW WE'VE SCORED!!!! :woohoo:
-
f**k me where'd that come from! We finally get a cross past the first man and a goal!
-
Seriously, get Harper off, he is beyond shit.
-
Good lad, McCombe! Takes a yellow for the team. Smart
-
What about Cott's lob that was saved then? That makes 2..
If we're poor tonight, we're poor, but don't make it sound worse..
Frosty, really?? You know for certain they've not tried hard enough..??
We're having a form dip and a few injuries. Pulled it back to 1-1 so we could scrape a decent result, if not performance?
-
Why is Harper being paid he is a disgrace does nothing for the team and never as. Bothe centre midfield players have no pace and very little skill.
-
Seriously, get Harper off, he is beyond shit.
He's just got McCombe in the book there from absolutely nothing. Harper's been their best player today. Not picking anything up in the middle at all. What is his actual role in the team?
-

And what do you know for certain? We have had these injuries for weeks now, it doesn't take getting on for a month to bringing a couple of loan signings.
-
Go for a pee and we score......
...right, Im off for a dump halfway through the second half.
-
I didn't rate Harper in the games I have seen, nor McCombe apart from in the air. Would rather have Spurr at CB and Husband LB...
-

Ditto!

Think I'm watching Aljazerez Sport !!!... we're famous ! :lol:

Nothing - but I do trust that the club would be looking at loans - I don't expect them to bring players in at random though, they need to be the right sort the management want. I agree with the frustration of no one coming in yet though, I just disagree that they are not making every effort...
-

Tell you what, let's stagger the visits to the throne and see what happens!

Can't you make that the 'trots' ;)
-
Lucky to be level. Harper not in game.same old story.midfield problem.well done husband.come on get it won.
-
people slagging cotts are correct. But he has the talent to produce something *when* he gives a shit. Harper on the other hand is taking this piss out of Flynn, all the fans and the rovers shirt.
-
Need to step up in the second half if we want to win this would take harper off and bring ball on and play copps back into midfield
-
We don't deserve to be level but I'm glad we are. Mccombe , fowler and especially harper are just shite. Slow and poor touch. Lethal combination. Need better ASAP. They will all do well to stay on the pitch.
-
That half was total dogshite!
I`m begining to lose patience with Barn Door Billy, does n`t work hard enough for me!
-
Fowler looks good but that cheap yellow card could be costly. I know Woods is shit at CM but at least he can get on the ball and pass it even if it is usually sideways. Harper hasn't done anything for months now.

Flynn does give mixed messages though. Ages ago he said he had the players earmarked yet about a week ago he claimed he would only take on loans as a consequence of injuries.
-

One moment of magic from Cotts could win this...
Filo, there is the difference between Paynter and Brown, IMHO, Hume too - with their workrates....
-

Won a good flick-on in the build-up to the goal though.
-

Involved twice for the goal though tbf...
-
I think we're doing okay, wearing them down and by the end we'll be rocking. Meanwhile I get the feeling they'll get another... :crying:
-
I fear for us in second half. Can see a red card coming and the midfield is already completely ineffective.
-

I liked the slap he gave muzzy for the shocking hair do mind!

A bit of an 80's style "why are you hitting yourself?" never goes amiss...
-
As shit as we are, to be absolutely fair the amount of times the balls bobbled up off the shocking pitch is unreal. Same for both sides though, probably explains why both sides have been shit.
Great run from Copps there.
-
How many times is Harper going to give it away? Jesus christ!
-
Harper has got to go off. He's giving it away every time!
-
Another harper magic moments. Hope someone is making a compilation
-
Husband needs to be stronger there, can't be getting outmuscled by Dumbuya!
-
We're so slow on the break it's unreal. We just don't look incisive at all.
-
We look shaky at the back.
-
It's like we have 9 men, Paynter and Harper are non existent, providing nothing at all.
-
Get some f*cking subs on!!
-
To be fair to Paynter he's had nothing in the way of service all night.
-
Get Paynter off for Ball and Harper for Woods.
-
Paynter for Ball/Sinclair, Harper for Woods and Husband for Bennett... GO FOR IT!
-
Looks almost like Spurr's playing in front of Husband on the left wing now. Very strange.
EDIT - Scrap that, they've switched back.
-
Woods distribution is shocking
-
this is embarrassing. Has cotts touched the ball 2nd half?
-
f**k me this is diabolical now. What is our game plan here?
-
This is absolutly shocking, we're being outclassed by Dumbuya! When is he going to change it!
-
Shocking, another passenger in cotts now !
-
Makes you wonder what Flynn's tactics are. It's a joke.
-
At last a sub. Ffs it's not harper
-
Is Flynn related to Harper?
-
How we are not losing this is beyond me! Riding our luck imo.
-
Serious questions need to be asked, because this is disgusting. I feel sorry for the 300 or so who have travelled down there to watch this shower.
-
It's got to the point where we just boot it anywhere and then give away a foul for every header we go for. Embarrassing performance.
-
Why the f**k is it only Paynter in their half!?
-
Joke,rubbish,garbage!
-
3 seasons ago we were 4 leagues apart. Fast forward 2 seasons and they're tearing us apart.
Embarrassing.
-
Both teams are different to 3 years ago - this season it is a level playing field.
We'll be dangerous if we can find some form!!!
-

Or a midfield
-
A point we didn't deserve. How Harper stayed on for 90 minutes I will never know.
-
A VERY, VERY, fortuitous point.
That was pretty awful.
-
Disgusting performance, those fans deserve a refund. All I'm going to say on the matter.
Jones it completely right.
-
Rob Jone agrees...
-
Tbh I'd if been happy with a draw at the start of the night, but god almighty what a shit performance, we were crap, rode our luck and on that performance will be lucky to get playoffs.
-
That second half was abysmal. Why did we just resort to hoofing it up to nobody and then giving a free kick away so easily? It's all very well saying we need to sort the danger signs, why not start trying to do it?
-
Well said, Rob Jones.
-
A few bright individual moments but we're doing nothing collectively anywhere over the park.
-
Well said, Rob Jones.
Absolutely 100%
-
As a foot note, our lass has just said to me and I quote" they always play shit on tele!" Couldn't agree more tonight!
-
Harper should never be allowed near a Rovers shirt again. He was a liability. Fowler went missing til he was subbed. Midfield is the problem. We need someone in there quick.
-
Absolutely awful. I know we have some injuries but fowler and harper are shite. We need a complete transformation in performance v Yeovil ! God I miss Saunders at least he would have a go at them
-
On tonight's performance Yeovil will metaphorically bum us at the weekend.
