Title: Doncaster Rovers vs Nottingham Forest
Post by: VivaRovers on February 12, 2010, 03:33:11 pm
Match preview for this game is now available on Viva Rovers (http://vivarovers.wordpress.com)

Incidentally I would like to place my time in the 'first chant of scab' sweepstake at 47 seconds.

Fantastic preview as ever. Loved the bit about the resolutely optimistic tone of the DROS preview.

I too am sick and tired of Chelsea Dagger- although I got sick and tired of it long before that November afternoon by the Trent. More like 0.01 seconds after the first time I heard it.

One thing re Robin Hood. Yes, he is an icon in Nottingham but he wasn't from there. The sheriff was from Nottingham and RH was from outside- probably from somewhere around Donny.

PS: Rovers to win 1-0 with a goal from Brian Stock. He's overdue one.

Shackell back! Roberts out with injury. Back four of Chambers, Shackell, Martis and O Connor. Otherwise unchanged. On OS.

I thought it was a bit early for a return. Hird seems to be doing ok though.

Typical, just got home to Pontefract after my daughters played football in Newcastle, missing my first home game of season, and it sounds like a belter. Could have prob got there for last 20 minutes, so fel a bit guilty sat at home listening to the player

Atmosphere sounds nice and loud. Mayfield and Mortley are saying the game is brilliant, Pat Nevin's saying its scrappy, don't care if we can hold on

looks like SOD took a gamble on two central defenders who weren't fully fit, a bit unlike him. hope it doesn't backfire

Dumbo's great going forward, but we need solid cover at the back.
Apparently Sulli has signalled to him not to get too far forward.
Hope he takes note.

Im not relishing the next 20m, our all-sub-six-foot defence against their prolific strike force

Mc Cleary off
Chambers booked (6th this season)

Brilliant win, if we can kick on over the next few matches safety will be assured quickly and then we can experiment a bit. :)

Excellent win and great performance, Oster MOM for me. What the hell was Shackell doing playing when he's weeks away from recovery?? Crazy. Ref and linesman were an absolute disgrace.
