Post by: Dare to dream! on March 05, 2016, 02:07:05 pm: #DRFC STARTING XI: Stuckmann, McCullough, Butler, Taylor-Sinclair, Lund, Alcock, Calder, Grant, Gooch, Mandeville, Tyson (c)

Delighted to see Mandeville start, think he's such a good player. He's got the opportunity to show us what he's got today.

Midfield concerns me.

Post by: swintonrover on March 05, 2016, 02:17:53 pm: What formation is that? 3CB's, 2RB's, a LM, a CM, 3ST's. Baffled.

Post by: IDM on March 05, 2016, 02:52:25 pm: I reckon 4 1 3 2 with LM in Keegans position. I have said before that I think defensive midfield would suit him, so let's see?

3Evina
11Williams
17Mackenzie
18Keegan
27Stewart
29Middleton
40Jones

Is Marosi injured? I presume Jones is the Youth GK.

Hope Stuckmann doesn't get injured or red-carded.

Post by: essexrover on March 05, 2016, 02:56:46 pm: And Wellens on the bench for the Shrews.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: Bristol Red Rover on March 05, 2016, 02:58:54 pm: I think that formation is about in game flexibilty. We'll be like ninjas tearing around a Shrews side falling over themselves.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: IDM on March 05, 2016, 03:12:05 pm: Decent start, attacking intent with no real clear cut chances yet

Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: CottyRover on March 05, 2016, 03:36:33 pm: 66% possession for Rovers according to BBC Sport at the moment. Was over 88% a bit ago :scarf:

Post by: Bristol Red Rover on March 05, 2016, 03:45:06 pm: The 6 shots on target is impressive.

Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: Dare to dream! on March 05, 2016, 03:53:06 pm: Good half. Mandeville, Calder and Mcullough all good. Gooch best player on the pitch.

We should win this, just need to keep going.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: DearneValleyRover on March 05, 2016, 03:56:55 pm: Very encouraging good movement
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: Dare to dream! on March 05, 2016, 03:58:08 pm: Playing a diamond also with McCullough holding who has done very well.
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: PDX_Rover on March 05, 2016, 04:04:58 pm: Just need to grab that goal. Sounds to me as if Shrewsbury are there for the taking. Come on lads!

How windy is it, and were we playing with the wind in the first half?

It was mentioned we were playing with the rain driving into our faces in the first half. Think the wind/weather is very changeable.

Other teams are picking up points. I fear for us now. No win in 10

Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: Lipsy on March 05, 2016, 04:56:48 pm: Clearly not. The only vaguely positive thing I can come up with is that this terrible run of form we're enduring cannot possibly continue. It just can't... :headbang:
Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: CottyRover on March 05, 2016, 04:57:30 pm: Better performance perhaps and a soft goal but we should have been ahead before that. Just escaping the relegation zone

Title: Re: TLO Doncaster v Shrewsbury Town
Post by: IDM on March 05, 2016, 05:07:32 pm: We should have finished them off in th first half. I remarked at ht that we hadn't been making mistakes but then let that corner in.

We weren't far from picking up the points so that was encouraging but we got nowt again.

Cue message board meltdown! Think I'll give this place a miss for a while..

Thanks for that summary. On days like this I too avoid the forum. I'm depressed and annoyed enough already, thanks
