Tonight’s team
COYR
-
Looks like the hope is Bogle still moves on. Don't wanna make him cup tied for any potential suitors.
-
No Bogle, suggests to me there is something happening in the background, if he’s staying he should deffo start tonite to protect our players from potential injury
-
sky sports reckon greaves is suspended ????????
someone had better check this ????
-
Who will our actual striker be??
-

he would already be cup tied anyway.

Yellow cards are competition specific, red cards are all competitions, we’ve played three games since he was sent off, sky sports know nothing
-
Well, let's hope he can stay on the pitch and keep his discipline!

Is this the weakest starting XI we've fielded in a "proper" match since we were in the Conference?
-

Debatable. Take it you're not expecting a shock then?
I'm just hoping we stay injury free.
-
I guess the story of Ravenhill going to Darlington were wrong/premature
-

On the plus side, the bench is looking stronger than it has been all season.
-

I recall us losing 1-0 to Yeovil at home around Christmas, maybe in L1 but certainly at BV and under Penney - think we released Adam Hughes the week before then re-signed him for one game and ended up with him and Uros Predic in midfield. Would love to know what the rest of the XI was that day but google hasn't been able to help my spotty memory on that one.
-
Cam Johm off
-
FFS another injury
-
Let’s hope he’ll be ok for Saturday
-
Just gets worse doesn't it? Let's hope it's a precaution.

I think the team was
Budtz,
Fenton, Foster, Albrighton, McDaid
Ravenhill, Hughes, Mulligan
Guy, LFW, McIndoe
Subs used: Thornton, N.Roberts, Offiong
IMHO stronger than tonight
-
Horton to centre half and seaman to left back ?!

Oh definintely looking at that - seemed a real low point at the time that it stuck with me!
-
Does anyone know what happened with Cam for him to have to go off.
-
Nope. No live reporting from Hoden either.
-
Anything been said on Bostock? He went of with a back problem Saturday.
-
Must be defending well, no goals yet!
Oooooops! ….my bad!
-
Anything been said on Bostock? He went of with a back problem Saturday.
Back spasm I read the problem was.
-
34' Gloves Jones makes his first real save of the afternoon as Surridge heads on target. 0-0
-
I can recall a couple of seasons ago that the mounting injury list might be a consequence of the training regime, whether that was too intense or the complete opposite. There again, perhaps it’s just plain bad luck. Any thoughts?
-
Nope. No live reporting from Hoden either.
Hoden doing I follow with I think Robbie Andrews.
Sounds like cam got a knock on his back and stayed down think it will be more precaution than anything. Ben Blyth sounds like he doing well
-
1-0 Stoke
-
Damn
-
38' Goal Stoke City.
Tom Ince puts the home side ahead. 1-0
-
We just had a shot and have a corner......
-
It looks like we are being battered a bit.
No shots at all from us and Stoke have had 65% possession.
-
Not sure what happened in midfield for the goal. Greaves seems to lose it too easily and then they run through too easy.
-
41' CHANCE. Charlie Seaman shoots from the edge of the box. It's tipped around the post by Davies. 1-0
-
Could be worse. Look at some other scores.
-
Yes. Greaves loses the ball player runs and shoots Louis saved but shoved it but not enough and Incessant scores
-
Greaves and Jones both poor for the goal.

The one you're thinking of was a 0-1 defeat at home to Blackpool.
Warrington
Mulligan
Foster
Fenton
Ryan
Hughes
Predic
Thornton
Forte
Heffernan
Neil Roberts.
That was poor but 7-8 of them would walk into tonight's side.

The lineup when we played Ipswich at home or maybe palace when wickham scored a hatrick?
I remember seeing our lineup and lumping on them to win and I think we lost 4-5 nil
-

I just saw Norwich 6 up against Bournemouth and thought that Bournemouth must have had players sent off……….but they still have a full contingent on the pitch.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_1/9395076.stm
Horrendous night and lineup. We had horrid injuries that year.
I remember a game the next season being awful aswell, Millwall at home, think Harry Kane scored that night.
-
Does anyone know what happened with Cam for him to have to go off.
went off holding his back,we are not doing too bad,they are a lot quicker at times with the ball and fairly quick going forward,Blythe looks decent at back Williams and seaman looks like more wing backs and Gardner done ok up top just coming abit to deep at times

Was that when SOD dropped a couple of players after an incident on a night out? Although given my memory earlier on this thread that probably didn't happen either!
:facepalm:
-
Damn it
-
game over..
-
Surridge multi million pound signing
-
Next goal important or just no more injuries is most important

Not sure if would,
Anyhow over recent years we’ve played weakened sides in the cup on numerous occasions
-
I know we have Dickos. I was asking if we have ever fielded a worse one than tonight in recent years.
The example you gave was man-for-man much better than tonight's in at least 8 positions.
-
Well we've had a couple of corners so must be doing summat.
-
Congratulations Ethan Harrison. Youngest ever Rovers player.
-
Congratulations Ethan Harrison. Youngest ever Rovers player.
Wasn’t Jeffreys 15 when he debuted?
COYR
-
iFollow commentary said Harrison 3rd youngest, Alick the youngest
-
Alick Jeffrey was younger than Harrison when he made his debut.
-
I'm just going on what they've said on iFollow. Maybe I misheard.
-
iFollow commentary said Harrison 3rd youngest, Alick the youngest
Thanks DU. I DID mishear!
-
Hopefully he can get some more chances
-
So if Alick is the youngest & Ethan Harrison is 3rd youngest.....who is second ?
-
Don't know, but Ian Snodin maybe?
-
Don't know, but Ian Snodin maybe?
Robert Betts names rings a bell as one of the youngest
COYR
-
I think Ian was 17 when he made the first team.
-
How old was Steve Reed when he made his debut
-
Do Coventry still owe us money for him ??
-
Was it Alan Warboys.
-
Lirak Hasani ?
-
Do Coventry still owe us money for him ??
Probably
COYR
-
Quite a few youngsters under Bremner. Wouldn't be surprised if Ian was 16 on his debut.
-
Paul Raven?
-
I think Ian was 17 when he made the first team.
He was 16 when he made his debut in April 1980 he was 17 in the August of that year. He came on off the bench V Bournemouth, Billy Bremner played himself on that day which made it quite a memorable fixture.
-
Wasn't there tonight but it sounds like a good effort from the boys. No shame in that.
-
Lirak Hasani ?
Beat me to it. I was gonna suggest him. He was 16 when he made his senior debut.
-
Relegation season to the conference I was in the under 16s the season before but left for barnsley. But a lot of the lads I played with for the under 16s played in the first team the year after, Debenham, donelly, messer etc so they will have been 16-17
-
https://www.doncasterroversfc.co.uk/club/club-history/player-records/oldest-and-youngest-players
Betts is the answer.
-
Lirak Hasani ?
Beat me to it. I was gonna suggest him. He was 16 when he made his senior debut.
Lirak was 16yrs 9months old when he made his debut.

What about Swansea away that season (Feb 2011) at the height of our injury crisis. We lost 3-0 and didn’t have a shot on goal all game. Lineup was…
01 Sullivan
03 Friend
05 Thomas (Kilgallon 73)
20 Mills
21 Hird (Webster 86)
14 Moussa
15 Wilson
16 Oster
22 Shiels
30 Keegan (Souza 86)
19 Euell
If my memory serves me correctly we picked either Euell or Moussa up at the services on the way there as we were that desperate for players and they’d just joined on loan.

Still bears no comparison tonight's starting side.
Half of tonight's outfield side (Greaves, Blythe, Barlow, Horton and Williams) have a grand total of 16 career league starts between them.
-
Youngest players to make a senior appearance for Doncaster Rovers
Alick Jeffrey (1954) 15 y, 229 d.
Robert Betts (1998) 16 y, 118 d.
Micky Nesbitt (1985) 16 y, 221 d.
Ian Snodin (1980) 16 y, 227 d.
Steve Reed (1972) 16 y, 232 d.
Danny Amos (2016) 16y, 252 d.
David Harle (1980) 16 y, 262 d.
Robert Lee (1974) 16 y, 268 d.
Glenn Humphries (1981) 16 y, 268 d.
Lirak Hasani (2019) 16 y, 271 d.
Thats obviously before tonight’s game.
-
So young Ethan must be 16 years and 119 or 120 days old if he is now the third youngest.

It was a poor game at Norwich and I don’t think that any Rovers fan expected us to get anything after going one down.
Delia Smith was in Wetherspoons pre-match.
