Good luck to Lewis on his debut. Very attacking line up. I trust McCann knows what he's doing as on first look the midfield 3 looks less strong defensively with Blair in there but, contrast to that we could be very quick on the break.

Strap in folks, this is going to be frantic!

Post by: dknward2 on February 02, 2019, 02:36:53 pm
Betting an end to end game just hope that our defence is up to the task, can just see it either high scoring draw or two teams cancelling each other out to a nil nil which does no good for either of us

I believe with Blair on the right side of the middle three we are better defensively. Yes Crawford is better with ball at his feet but Blair imo will close down better.

Post by: DonnyBazR0ver on February 02, 2019, 02:49:33 pm
A lot depends on Whiteman and Kane stringing the play together but we shouldn't be short of movement in front of them.

Crawford is the best closer-down in the squad. He's like a terrier. Straight in the opponent's face the minute he gets the ball.

30' A long ball from Tom Anderson - we think - finds Mallik Wilks. He holds off the challenge of his man and slots the ball home to give Rovers the lead! #DRFC #PORDON 0-1

Wilks races on to a ball down the middle and slots the ball neatly past MacGillivray to give Doncaster the lead

54' Omar Bogle nets an equaliser from close range for the home side. #DRFC #PORDON 1-1

Curtis' cross causes a mix-up in the Doncaster defence and Vaughan's ball is deflected into the path of Bogle, who fires home from close range to draw #Pompey level
