well it looks like someone has done their homework  - anyone any idea when with a virtual full squad,  a Rovers manager last made such tactical changes ?

Sterling not in the squad today due to loan limits

8' A bit of a scramble in the Town box as the visitors look to open the scoring but Tom Anderson's final shot is blocked & Chambers clears.

8' A training ground corner routine from Rovers ends with Ben Whiteman's shot blocked. When the ball is played back in there are several players there, with Tom Anderson's shot blocked.

19' Coppinger's clipped free-kick is cleared by Chambers but only as far as Whiteman whose shot from the edge of the box is just over.

19' A deep Rovers free-kick is played into the area by James Coppinger, it is cleared back to Ben Whiteman but he doesn't catch his shot cleanly and it is lifted over the bar.  #DRFC #IPSDON 0-0

22' SAVE! First real opportunity of the game falls to Doncaster as Niall Ennis takes aim from the edge of the box but Holy does well to get down low & push the shot away.

[0-0] #itfc


22' Only a good stop from Tomas Holy denies Niall Ennis, as the forward wins the ball and progresses into the area before letting fly with a low drive. Jon Taylor's effort from the rebound is blocked.  #DRFC #IPSDON 0-0

43' Massive chance for Doncaster as they break quickly with Ennis. His cross from the right comes all the way through to Taylor at the back-post but Holy does very, very well to get out & save the shot.

[0-0] #itfc


43' CLOSE!! Some fantastic play down the right from Rovers leads to Niall Ennis crossing for Jon Taylor, whose shot is somehow stopped by Holy in the home goalkeeper.  #DRFC #IPSDON 0-0

49' Chance for Town! Edwards floats the ball in from the right & Jackson looks to have got to it in front of the 'keeper but he can't steer his header on target.

Well, the officials are lamentable. Four Rovers bookings. And Ipswich have been cynical at every turn. We’ve been cynical too at times but the difference is we’ve been booked.

68' A fantastic chance for Rovers as the ball is pulled back from the left, Niall Ennis' shot is blocked by Myles Kenlock. #DRFC #IPSDON 0-0
