Opening up today’s thread as it was lucky last time!
-
Todays lineup:
-
Senior at left back of a back 4 or part of a back 3 with Anderson and Bailey?
-

Or fluid switching between the two?
-
I just remembered earlier in the season seeing a very very fast right winger playing for Grimsby who THEN looked decent hope he's not playing but there again earlier in the season we thought Sotana (?)was fast and decent
-
Great to see Hurst on Bench. Hope senior comes through ok, as it’s his first start since injury. Confident of a better defensive display today.

My worry at the moment is we seem to have a lack of pace today
-
Grimsby all over us at the moment
-
There’s more Grimsby supporters here than Rovers! It’s very dull, a poor game and Grimsby look look better and more dangerous than we are.
-
Moly struggling - maybe going off
-
Another injury. Molyneux off for Biggins.
-
Vaal is playing very badly today. He has no ball control at all.
-
It’s been very poor from both sides so far
-
Jones keeping us in the game
-
Good save by Jones from a great chance for Holohan the Grimsby player. He was clean through.
-
Anderson like a carthorse in that one on one with Holohan
-
Jones keeping us in the game
Really???
That's the first save he's made.
-
Well I've had more exciting bowel movements than this
-
2 poor sides. We look clueless.
I think a mistake will decide the match.
Nothing to cheer at all.
-
Fell asleep for 10 mins of that half.
-

At least we've got a clean sheet so far.
Maybe with your bowel movement that's not the case!
-
Our passing has gone all awry again. Can’t seem to find each other or win a second ball. Rovers look very nervous today - no idea why.
We really need a different plan for the second half. Radical change required.

First game I'd really say the injuries are notable. We need some flair in this formation and we lack it. Senior is too defensive in this setup. With faal and Hurst on the bench you'd think they're options.
-
Refs been decent so far.

Faal?
-
Very poor game. There’s no entertainment. McCann has to kick their arses and change tactics for second half or he’ll lose the support.

Perhaps he’s having a quiet game but Faal’s started!
-
I have a horrible feeling our recent down turn in form is due to me putting a bet on the Rovers. I knew I shouldn’t have tempted fate!!
-
Faal and Ironside largely anonymous, but then Rovers have struggled to put together a coordinated attack in that half. It needs a switch around and different tactics after half time. Hope GM manages it.
-

Really? Hoolihan should be off the amount of yellow card worthy fouls he’s made
-

i have my free £5 hills bet on 1-0 To Rovers 8/1 so everything is going to plan be patient !! :scarf:
-
is jones playing as an outfield player ??
"62'
Post update
Offside, Doncaster Rovers. Louis Jones tries a through ball, but Joe Ironside is caught offside."
-
Hurst on for Faal?

Apart from the chance Ironside had 1st half,they have had no service at all.
-
Broadbent instead.
-
reading the bbc posts it looks like we are trying to keep Hurst the Grimsby manager in a job.
-
The only thing I can see from this match is why did we get rid of Danny Amos? He's had a good game.
-
1-0
-
Get in! Ironside penalty.
-
Get in.!
-
Get in. No arguments fro the Cods over the pen
-
Should've been a booking and 10 men.
-
That has to be the fourth clear yellow card foul by Hoolihan
-
"Rovers have just got to hold on to this" (Peter Catt), no they haven't! They need to find another!
-
Peter(glass half empty, the most boring man on commentary) Catt
-

More like foul by Hooligan.

i really don't mind it going 2-0 top half finish is much much more important and todays results (so far) look good
-
What was Jones carded for, time wasting?
-
How did Faal put that over?
-
What was Jones carded for, time wasting?
Yes

hedged some of it
-
Cmon let's not let them through.
Couple of counters we have had have been screaming for someone with pace
-
What was Jones carded for, time wasting?
Yes
Multi ball situation,went for a ball further away,bet he would'nt have got a yellow if Codheads was winning.
-
Great effort by Bailey. Deserves a goal for us
-
So close to sealing it from Bailey,hitting crossbar!
-
We've played far better and lost this season. I'll take that today.
-
Full time, 1-0. Not at our best but we'll take the points!
-
The history books will say Doncaster Rovers 1 Grimsby Town 0 .
:scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
FULL STOP
-
Olowu on in time to make dangerous pass in final minute!
-
Thank god for that,Owolu nearly threw it away at end.We always going to struggle for a clean sheet when he plays 90mins!
-
2 points off the top half
NEXT PLEASE !!
-
Dire!
-
Dire!
We won, have a drink and be happy.
-
Hurst gave us that spark, he scared them to death, which got us over the line. Ground that one out, players looked knackered, however how Faal didn’t score and Baileys fantastic shot tipped onto the bar could have made it a bigger score line.
Clean sheet too!!! Though Oluwu did his best to chuck it all away, got a bit of a nerve celebrating at the end, his best contribution was sat on the bench, and long may that continue.
-
Dire!
What's the point in a fan like you? What are you getting out of this?
-
A win’s a win, but without the aid of rose-tinted specs, that was a poor game. First half was all huff and puff. Second half a bit better, but we struggled to put anything cohesive together.
Please for Hurst and he’ll be a welcome addition. Fall looked cream crackered all game! Let’s see what Moly and Ironside injuries are - please, not more on the treatment table for weeks on end.
-
Yeah not a great performance by any means. We were sharper and brighter in the second half and Hurst made an impact but they deserved a 0-0 there really.
Still, in previous seasons we’d have folded there and not been able to hang onto the lead so I’ll take that.
-
A hard fought victory, had nil, nil all over it for most of the game. Think a penalty was the only way either team was going to score today.
On to the FA Cup next Saturday
