Either a last minute injury or some positive news i.e sterling or Wright playing
-
Today’s team, no Cameron John, Daniels in in his place
COYR
-
No Cameron John.
Must be an injury as wouldn't expect him to need a rest
-
Funny that but last week, during a stoppage in play, the players came over to the touchline and John was pointing at his groin.
-
From Liam Hoden
I'm told Cameron John picked up a knock in training yesterday. Will have more details after the game #drfc
COYR
-
That is really unfortunate, this is one match where we could have done with his pace at the back.
-
Still think this is a win for Rovers.
-
Watching on Skybet as well as listening to ifollow. Skybet at least a minute in front of so called live commentary. Interesting.
-
4' CLOSE. Niall Ennis shoots just wide after Ben Sheaf did really well to beat his man to an under-hit pass in to midfield. 0-0 #COVDON #DRFC

How do you watch on skybet?
-
It has a little screen showing the game as a animation of how the ball is moving. Not video.
-
Why is the game not on ifollow today? Can only get audio my vpn is normally fine
-
Copps is on fire. Not too confident with the defence, Daniels not surprisingly totally in tune.
Watching it on iFollow fine
-
I have ifollow working.
-
...........Not too confident with the defence,..........
Why not, BRR? Only asking! :)
-
Good morning everyone. Tough game, but one we need to win to be a leading promotion side.
-
38' Great save by Dieng to deny Hiwula from close range. 0-0 #COVDON #DRFC
COYR
-
Not sure it’s a game we need to win
-
Cant get a commentary but looking at the bbc stats, Coventry appear to be having the better of the game.
-
No we don't but it would be a bonus if we did. This is another big test of our credentials.
-
Get innnnnnnnnnnnnnn :rtid:
-
Get in
-
0-1 Get in!!! Ben Whitman
-
Get in. 1-0 Ben Whiteman.
-
Brilliant team goal!
-
Excellent break down the right by Rovers! Halliday's cross finds Whiteman on the edge of the box and the skipper guides his shot in to the bottom corner. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC
41' - GOAL: Sky Blues 0-1 Doncaster - Ben Whiteman

From Liam Hodens matchday blog
3.41 WHITEMAN!!!
Rovers lead thanks to their skipper!
And it came thanks to a brilliant counterattack, starting all the way from Seny Dieng.
Kieran Sadlier sent Brad Halliday storming down the right. He played a low pass into the box which Jon Taylor left, allowing the onrushing Ben Whiteman to sweep a shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the box.
Rovers have spent much of the half on the back foot but find themselves firmly in front.
COYR
-
Not essential that Rovers win this match, but if they want to push for the top 2 they could do with winning matches like this one. Keep it up Rovers.
-
Good end to the half, now to keep a clean sheet in the second
COYR
-
Almost every one above us seems to be picking up points, so I'd say it's very Important to get something from the game...
-
looks like need to won to stay in 7th place.
every point of equal value at the end of the season
-
Coventry had more of the ball and lively up front but we counter attacked with a brilliantly executed, well worked team goal. COYR
-
To be a top 2 side we need to beat those teams around us, Coventry are one of these teams.
-
Decent half..
Coventry moving it around well and Dieng has made a couple of saves, and Anderson a block when Dieng was beaten.
We look ok going forward, plenty of width.. Coventry need to press so we will have chances to get behind them in the second half..
-
Great counter attack. We got forward quickly in numbers
-
If Coventry do start pushing up it will suit our game, Ennis in particular will get in behind them.
-
Coventry just edged first half but great goal from Whitman.daniels playing well but they are looking dangerous in attack.anderson great block preventing a goal. They seem to warrant their table position.ennis could have scored earlier. :scarf:
-
As for the game being a must win etc,. No it isn’t, but we should aim win any game - shouldn’t fear any opposition in this division..
If we lose because Coventry have a better second half I would be disappointed but so be it.. I have seen enough in our team in recent weeks to see we can compete with anyone in the league..
-
If Coventry do start pushing up it will suit our game, Ennis in particular will get in behind them.
Ennis was clear thro at the end of the first half. How that rugby tackle wasnt a yellow is incredible!
-
The one where their player climbed all over his back.. should have been a yellow easy..
-
If he was clean through surely it should have been a red.
-
hi everyone just dropped into Laigueglia and was hoping to watch ifollow but my times are mixed up its half time and were 1 up woohoo, thanks for the commentary guys
-
iFollow late back, Coventry already have had one corner.
-
Excellent half time music. Crash by The Primitives.
-
50' Coventry have knocked the ball out of play so that the Rovers physio can come on to treat Niall Ennis who sat down off the ball. Looks like Alfie May will be coming on in his place. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC
51' SUBSTITUTION | Confirmation of Rovers' change.
OFF - Niall Ennis
ON - Alfie May
Kieran Sadlier has moved up front. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC

Max Watters just scored for Mickleover against Gainsborough

Hmmmm 2 young players now, injured - can we call off the match next weekend? :boxing:
-
free press
Attack rejigged
Alfie May replaces the injured Niall Ennis but drops into the three man attack behind the lone striker, who is now Kieran Sadlier.
-
53' CLOSE. Kieran Sadlier picks the Coventry player's pocket - plays the ball to Coppinger who is denied by Liam Walsh. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC
COYR
-
Was the Ennis injury as a result of the foul when he was clean through.
-
...........Not too confident with the defence,..........
Why not, BRR? Only asking! :)
I didn't think Daniels was quite fitting in at first, a tiny bit lost when the ball was in our box, much better as the game progressed.

Got it, BRR! Thanks! :)

If he was clean through surely it should have been a red.
that one was just over half way, so a yellow was correct:.

58' - Hiwula's shot deflected.
City continue to press looking for an equaliser and it's Hiwula's shot which takes a deflection on it's way through and is comfortable for Dieng.
[0-1] #PUSB
58' Tom Anderson is in the way once again! His block takes all the pace off Hiwula's shot making it easy for Dieng to collect. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC

Under a bit of pressure now Coventry really stepping it up.
Next goal is very important

71' Donervon Daniels has somehow managed to clear that wide from virtually on his own goal line. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC

One way traffic at moment.

Only worry is not much on the bench to make a change now

73' Two chances for Halliday in quick succession. He first heads James' cross back across goals and sends the follow-up beyond the back post. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC

Just had a look at the same thing.
I hope Copps can complete the match.

trying to type while washing my jeans in the sink, somethings got to give

Maybe need to slow the game now a bit just take the sting out of it

77' Marosi in the Sky Blue's net needed to be alert at Reece James' cross almost dipped under the crossbar. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC

Corner, Coventry City. Conceded by Ben Sheaf. 10 to go plus added time

82' - Godden's shot blocked.
City continuing to apply the pressure and it's Godden who's on the end of O'Hare's ball through, but Anderson makes the block.

...I’ve got an idea

picked a great room here, 2 dogs barking at each other, church bells and station announcements

BBC text showing only 84 mins played.
Is live time up to 90 already.
-
86' There's a break in play to deal with an injury to Ben Whiteman. 0-1 #COVDON #DRFC
Going to be quite a few mins of injury time today
COYR
-
This just shows how we are lacking strength in depth this season. Not knocking the lads and I have no nails left but we need someone to help take some pressure of the team like erm erm John Marquis. Come on boys you can hold out
-
Rovers struggling a bit with cramp etc, it has obviously been hard work today!
-
Have faith Godlike
-
How can 7 minutes of added time been announced when we aren't up to 90 played yet.
-
Shit
-
Damn 1-1
-
Kin ell, sounds like it had been coming though.
-
Think he's misquoted Liam Hoden, on his twitter he stated a 'lengthy 7 minutes plus stoppages' that was in the 83rd minute
How can 7 minutes of added time been announced when we aren't up to 90 played yet
-
Been coming all half
-
I fear we’ll loose this now
-
88' Goal Coventry. Amadou Bakayoko fires beyond Seny Dieng. The Rovers keeper had no change. 1-1 #COVDON #DRFC
89' - CITY ARE LEVEL!
Ball into the box eventually falls to McFadzean and he tees up Bakayoko who fires the ball into the back of the net!
[1-1] #PUSB

It was coming. A point would still be decent.

Miss read a tweet it was 7 plus stoppages

Stay positive mate.

Agreed! Less of this negativity!
-
Think it was it was a case of when not if Coventry to score
A draw still a good result with no strikers on the pitch after Ennis went off
-
Amateur hour at sky sports
COYR
-
Game over, 1-1. Not bad, eh?
-
A good point.
-
I fear we’ll loose this now
Hope you didn’t bet on it! :)
-
Would've took it this morning. The striker issue still a big problem.
-
Nailed on handball at end there. Shite ref
-
Game over, would have been happy, I still am, with a point before the game started.
Onwards and upwards
COYR
-
Fair result in the end.. Coventry has a fair amount of chances so can’t really complain.. Taylor should have taken his chance but it wasn’t to be..
-
Good away point at a team that had won every game at home.
Hopefully Ennis and sterling will be back next week or sign Victor to at least give us an option to bring on.
-
Nailed on handball at end there. Shite ref
Shite ref? Not because of one, supposedly, bad decision, surely?
Just asking.......again! :)
-
So.….IF we were to win our game in hand we will go to fifth in the table.
-

Not at all. However that was a clear handball just out side the box

Was that in the build up to their goal or at the other end?
-
No, in the aftermath of our free kick at the end of the match..

If we could have hung on we would have been 7th now we are 9th, only table that matters is the one at the end of season. Only 6 points off autos. Still happy just hope we don't rue missing out on these points

No. We had an effort near enough at the death,popped up,hit a coventry hand. Clear free kick just outside the box

Good test today and no- one should really feel disappointed with the result given the circumstances
#WellDoneRovers
-
wasnt there BUT its the first points Coventry have dropped "at home" this season so a good result
-
I can’t believe no one has mentioned the ref in the second half wasn’t the same as the one in the first
-

It has been mentioned on the rate the ref thread.
Most of us who posted in here, if not all of us, were not at the match.
-
I didn't actually realise until I saw it on the thread to be honest. Don't really spend much time watching the referee or notice what they look like unless they're bald or something else that makes them stand out. Wondered why I thought he seemed to change after half time...
-
I didn’t notice the ref had changed..
-
Should have gone to Specsavers.🤓
