Both Williams and Straughan-Brown played, so I doubt they’ll be in the squad for the Barnsley game.

That’s so disappointing to hear.

I well remember the team of Rankine, Raven, Brevitt, Woods etc getting us to the final of this competition in the 80’s.

Me & my brother went to White Hart Lane to see Rankine score an equaliser in that game to see us through play the two legged final against Arsenal.

A young Kevin Campbell turned up on a balmy evening in Doncaster in front of 7,000 supporters & showed us all the difference between good players & great players.

Kevin Campbell scored a first half hat trick in that match, but got substituted either at half time or early in the second half. The following Saturday he made his first team debut against Everton
