Colchester United - Doncaster Rovers

Stadium:Weston Homes Community Stadium (Colchester)

Since no one's started this yet... having shamelessly ripped off DMC's format, here we are.
Title: Colchester
Post by: DonnyBazR0ver on August 23, 2014, 02:05:18 pm: Hoping for the same formation and hope they have their shooting boots on. Could be a very good afteroon.

Post by: RedJ on August 23, 2014, 02:15:57 pm: McCombe for Jones is the only change in the starting lineup.

Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Dare to dream! on August 23, 2014, 02:45:59 pm: 0-2 De Val and Bennett
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RobTheRover on August 23, 2014, 02:53:36 pm: Bennett to score has to be a good bet.

Edit : Just checked. 9/2 to score anytime in the 90 mins. Expected a bit more, actually.

Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 03:14:29 pm: Sounds like we've started lively but no real goal chances
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RedJ on August 23, 2014, 03:17:04 pm: Looking confident on the ball, according to Goodwin.

Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: andysly on August 23, 2014, 03:40:24 pm: BBC text commentary would suggest we've been well on top for the past 10-15 mins ?
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 03:43:46 pm: Listening to "Dickov Watch" on Player I'm wondering if we should forget about injuries to the squad and worry instead about PD having a coronary! :lol:

Post by: andy didcott on August 23, 2014, 03:46:01 pm: Score next goal,, move up to 5th. Come on donny.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RedJ on August 23, 2014, 03:49:26 pm: Their manager apparently worried about stopping Keegan getting the ball.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: IDM on August 23, 2014, 04:14:39 pm: much happening this half?
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RedJ on August 23, 2014, 04:16:36 pm: Had a free kick on the edge of the box a bit back.

"Rovers doing a lot of defending so far in the second half".
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Mike_F on August 23, 2014, 04:20:23 pm: Frustrating stuff, this. Can't seem to find the link to get in the box.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RedJ on August 23, 2014, 04:21:28 pm: Furman's just had a shot stopped after what's meant to have been a good build up. Can see this finishing 0-0 myself.

Yeah this is why I don't bet very often. :laugh:

Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Drover on August 23, 2014, 04:26:57 pm: Get in there!!!!!!!!
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: rover-n-out on August 23, 2014, 04:29:01 pm: Even though it seems it was a scrappy goal, reports on here sound as though we are playing well, and not under the cosh. Hope that continues.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RobTheRover on August 23, 2014, 04:30:19 pm: Kyle was 12/1 for the first goalscorer before ko. I had a couple of euros on him when the 9/2 anytime looked poor value. Hehe.

Well done young Mr B!
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: IDM on August 23, 2014, 04:30:33 pm: Shot count going up on BBC stats, let's make it count with another!
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: DonnyOsmond on August 23, 2014, 04:30:54 pm: Furman missed from 2 yards out? :lol:
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Lipsy on August 23, 2014, 04:32:09 pm: Sounds like we're twisting the knife. We need another goal...
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 04:32:37 pm: Up to fourth according to Player - having been 12th up to then.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: IDM on August 23, 2014, 04:33:55 pm: 8th according to BBC...
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Copps is Magic on August 23, 2014, 04:34:46 pm: Lol at the Colchester fan on player.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: DonnyOsmond on August 23, 2014, 04:35:45 pm: Rovers Player seems to think we've got a goal difference of +4, when it's +2.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Drover on August 23, 2014, 04:36:05 pm: 9th according to sky? How they get so many differences?????
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 04:36:46 pm: I agree, the goal difference on Player doesn't seem right. Sadly, BBc are probably right. It's about which out of the bunch on 7 points come first.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: RobTheRover on August 23, 2014, 04:37:19 pm: Joint 7th.

Post by: IDM on August 23, 2014, 04:37:44 pm: I don't really care, 3 points is more important at present.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: DonnyOsmond on August 23, 2014, 04:38:12 pm: Bit early to be worrying about the table anyway. :lol:
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Lipsy on August 23, 2014, 04:38:43 pm: Agreed. As long as we are there or thereabouts, points-wise.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Nudga on August 23, 2014, 04:39:23 pm: I agree, as long as we keep within touching distance for one last push at the end.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: IDM on August 23, 2014, 04:39:58 pm: We got a great point on Tuesday and potentially a win today, both without Rob Jones, Forrester, and Main.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 04:41:00 pm: Always brings a warm glow on a Sunday morning when you're looking for the Rovers up the top end of the table!

Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Bristol Red Rover on August 23, 2014, 04:43:41 pm: We don't sound effective up front, very disappointing we haven't had 2+ more goals.

Perhaps, but bear in mind we don't have Main, nor Forrester who I see as our biggest threat?
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 04:45:01 pm: Yes, Rovers defending too much, should be trying to kill the game off with a second. Going to be a nervous few minutes. Another chance missed as I type.

Ours. Robinson.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: Copps is Magic on August 23, 2014, 04:47:23 pm: I count that Robinson and Furman both missed two sitters.
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: IDM on August 23, 2014, 04:48:42 pm: At least we are creating chances.. BBC stats show Colchester have had none this half...
Title: Re: Colchester United v TLO Doncaster
Post by: CottyRover on August 23, 2014, 04:48:56 pm: Hope we don't regret that. Rovers on the front foot just now.
