Greaves at right back.

Hope we don't get Brewers Droop.

It's got to be either Greaves or Copps?

Probably as good as we can put out with what we have got.still looking forward to the game.hope we win. :thumbsup:

Just a polite reminder to everyone, 7pm ko tonight.

Just a polite reminder to everyone, 7pm ko tonight.
Then Emmerdale at 7.10pm?
-
One full back? What on Earth is going on?
-
Two up top ... let’s see how that pans out. I fancy us to win comfortably this evening.
-
My expectations are low but my hopes, as always, are high.
Come on Rovers!
-
4-4-2
Wtf
Could be more interesting than my prediction....l
-
One full back? What on Earth is going on?
Well we've tried playing with several and that's not worked.
-
Too easy through the midfield there.
-
This is looking a bit solid....just need to get the front two supplied..
-
Who put a new pair of jeans in the wash on hot with the white Burton kit?
-
It's better already. More direct.
-
It's better already. More direct.
Definitely.
-
What side is the Rovers game on....I’m watching something and it’s certainly not what I’ve been watching before.....cmonnnnn
-
Penney-ball
-
Much better.
-
Not many on here tonight
-
Cop pinger has shed the years tonight. He’s Playing superbly.
-
This is a lot more enjoyable! Still we need that breakthrough but 100% better.
-
This is a hundred times better
-
There looks to be much more commitment and confidence tonight.
-
Much more inventive, decisive and direct. Just lacking a bit of luck in front of goal.
-
Couldn’t see anything wrong with that ‘goal’
-
Bogles doing well.
-
Couldn’t see anything wrong with that ‘goal’
hit Hortons arm
-
Couldn’t see anything wrong with that ‘goal’
Handball from Horton I think.
-

Handball all day long.
Unlucky though.
-
As good as we are playing, I just hope we score first, one goal can crush this
-
Keep the updates coming folks. My old lady has locked me out.Sat on the pitch step. :(
-
Who would have thought it? 4-4-2 and playing direct. Surely that’s what is known as ‘back to basics’
Greaves is doing well
-
A long time since I’ve read such a positive Lucky Pint thread!
You Reds! :thumbsup:
-
Can we get the carnival music turn off I follow
-
Good job Tom was injured there.
When the ref stopped play the ball was dropping nicely to a Burton player six yards out.
-

I'm sure it was suggested 3 or 4 games ago. Can't think by who :whistle:
Got shot down in flames.
-
Boom. AJ likes a challenge doesn’t he.
Yellow card but he meant to win that.
-
I’m going to start putting AJ on for a booking in my bet builder. Picks up a yellow every time he plays.
-
Greaves needs to not flying in as much or he won't be staying on. :laugh:
-
Who is sat in the couprate boxes ,looks like 10 people up there.
-
Best 45 minutes for ages that.
-
Better but we need the goal!
-
Looks like a few in the box’s
-
Best 45 minutes for ages that.
Yep best half of football in a long while
COYR
-
We look like a football team again.
Just need a goal.
-
I’d give my right arm for a clean sheet tonight.
Much better first half that was, it’s important now we don’t concede the first goal.
Copps is brilliant.
-
Looks like a few in the box’s
Saunders PI and a room full of suspects.
-
Keep it up Rovers, this is so much better.
-
3 points would be a confidence boost the way results are going today, could see us up to 9th. (False hope I know but need to keep some faith AB could pull this off)
-
Much better, while we have not had the clear cut chances the effort is there, let’s hope we can get a win and build from there
-
Marquis misses another Penalty.
-
The team look more capable than in the last 3 months, they should take great heart from that fist half, I think Burton will be wanting to pinch an early goal to stop the onslaught, let’s hope that is their undoing....far too many crosses going into the Burton box from the right.....get Lokilo on and stop all that malarkey......
-
Wigan beat Sunderland, maybe Wigan are better than we gave them credit for. But all in all we were poor that day
COYR
-
Find a way to nick it 1 0 coyr
-
Those Burton long throws are pretty rubbish.
-
b*llocks
-
Fk ... on the break
-
Unfortunate. Come on lads.
-
Pretty sure that was our throw before the goal.
It was. Clearly.
-
Flip you could sense that coming, we look like half time has killed the momentum, and Burton have stepped the intensity up slightly
-
When things are going wrong...........
-
We don't deserve to be losing this imo.
-
Now to see how we react
COYR
-
Harsh that really just not going for us right now.
-
Both Smith and Horton had an opportunity to put it out...neither did...
-
Clear foul on Smith then a foul throw. Shocking officials!
-
Pretty sure that was our throw before the goal.
It was. Clearly.
Went out off Smith.
-
Poor defending by Horton should never have got the ball
-
Poor defending by Horton should never have got the ball
Weak/naive.
-
We certainly don't deserve to be losing
-
Pretty sure that was our throw before the goal.
It was. Clearly.
Well, it looked that way, but watched it over a few times and it was theirs.
-
Few chances to deal with it but didn’t wrong throw in given but if we wanna get owt need to find the pressure from the first half
-
Pretty sure that was our throw before the goal.
It was. Clearly.
Well, it looked that way, but watched it over a few times and it was theirs.
Their player headed the ball onto Smith and it went out of play.
-
Weak passing , so frustrating....
-
How did that not become two nil.
-

Well, it looked that way, but watched it over a few times and it was theirs.
Aye, just watched it back. Looked like a foul though.
-
We've fallen apart again.
-
I said it last week and I will say it again we have a serious issue scoring your every day type of goal we only score the goals u see every 3to 4 games during a season and not getting the ones in between
-
The front 2 need hold the ball better
-
I wouldn’t say we’ve fallen apart. Burton’s tails are up after the goal. Still time.
-
Burton look like getting another. Best news tonight was Wednesday losing 2-0 at Swansea. Moore did not seem a bit upset either, I’ve not seen him laughing before!
-
Quite impressed with young Greaves tonight especially playing out of position
-
Oh Ellery....
-
We’ve fallen to bits this second half
-
Two nil now.
Soft goal really.
-
Why was Jones dropped anyway?
-
For f**k sake! What a joke. Same old story. End the season now.
-
Another soft goal. Wright misses yet another header and then Balcombe lets it through his hands. First half seems a long time ago now.
-
Thank god we are mathematically safe... At least we did enough prior to January
-
We will be lucky to score 4 or 5 goal for the rest of the season and always look like conceding 1 or 2 it’s a recipe for disaster
-
Our front 2 are as bad as our back 4.
-
3-0
-
Quite impressed with young Greaves tonight especially playing out of position
He's been very solid, some flashy bits of skill too.
-
Another capitulation!
-
What a dreadful defence we have
-
Another high ball we failed to defend.
-
The midfield was non existent leading to Copps giving away a free kick.
-
We need a full new squad for next season massive overhaul for the new manager needed
-
We are playing with 9 men and what's even worse we are stuck with those 2 useless lumps up front for another season.
-
Shocking second half.
I’d just like this season to end and let’s get building for next.
-
Here we go again. Embarrassing score against another team we should be wiping the floor with!
-
Well, currently the end of the season cannot come quickly enough
COYR
-
FFS. complete rebuild required.
-
Got another month or so of this gents, buckle in
-
Bogle ... what a cart horse he is.
-
Why was Jones dropped anyway?
Seriously.
-
We need a completely new team. This lot would struggle in League 2.
-
Further evidence we won’t get a point all season now
-
This lot are a f**king shambles! I’d be surprised if anyone wants to sign our out of contract players at the end of the season. However they probably all have new clubs lined up and been told not to get injured. Shambles from top to bottom.
-
At least this time they can take positives from the first half.
-
It’s a shame after first half, think we’re just not good enough, teams have worked out if they close us down we’re going to struggle
-
There are hungry big units lower down the leagues......we seriously need a complete overhaul....
Bad passing and little ability is not an ingredient for success....
-
We were better with Bostock on.
-
What is Butler doing about it, he takes Bostock off who was having a decent game and puts lazy arse Richards on, and nothing to change it since
-
We needed to cash in when we were on top but we carry hardly any threat up front.
-
Hope they all hang their heads in shame at what they have done to this club. Mercenaries to a man..
-
0-3 - Chris Kamara reporting for Sky said that Doncaster Rovers have completely packed in. The score can be anything tonight..... he’s not wrong!
-
Ferguson in the ground watching this.
He will be expecting six points from us to clinch their auto promotion spot.
-
Good news is our 3 best players today we own, Greaves, Copps and Bostock.
-
This shower of shit have turned us into a laughing stock. And yet still no action will be taken by anyone with any power to change the situation and we’ll blindly walk into another 4 or 5 hammering’s until the season ends.
It’s truly pathetic and completely unacceptable
-
Ferguson in the ground watching this.
He will be expecting six points from us to clinch their auto promotion spot.
He could play their youth team and beat this lot twice. And I’m not joking
-
Good news is our 3 best players today we own, Greaves, Copps and Bostock.
We also own the worst two. Bogle and Okenabirhie.
-
Get all the f**kers out the club! Absolute disgrace and I only wish we were able to be inside the ground to give them the reception they deserve. f**king lazy t**ts the lot of them.
-
We need to be doing our absolute best to get some propper men in the squad for next season. A no nonsense manager with a no nonsense group of contracted players. What has been allowed to happen is unforgiveable and cannot happen again.
-
There was only one team ever going to win this.
Rovers: 9 points from our last 15 games.
Burton, since JFH took over, 38 points from 18 games.
Not quite the same analogy, but you get my drift
-
One change all game and after 3rd no changes what does that say to your bench if you want to make changes again on sat
Certainly gonna turn around say balls to it very poor man management by butts tonight I’m not saying bench is any better but not making any changes says a lot
-
Why would he bother trying to make changes, he is just coasting them to the end of the season now, nothing else he can do to get them fired up
-
Good news is our 3 best players today we own, Greaves, Copps and Bostock.
Bostock is a poser. He’s much more concerned about how showy a pass looks rather than whether it actually finds a team mate.
A luxury we can’t afford.
-
Burton look like getting another. Best news tonight was Wednesday losing 2-0 at Swansea. Moore did not seem a bit upset either, I’ve not seen him laughing before!
Did he stand in the tunnel shaking the oppositions hands??
-
3-0 if we honest could of been 5 in the second half I’d keep Anderson and sign James and youth and transfer list or cancel contracts or rest and let new manager do a full rebuild and try and get mid table next year and build from that
-
That to me tonight shows why Butler should be nowhere near the managers job, Hasselbank changed things and Butler did nothing to counter it but put a lazy arsed t**t on

We were a lot more solid with him in tonight then when he went off.
-
Absolutely spineless in the second half. At this rate there will be quite a few considering whether it is worth renewing season tickets next year.

What other option did he have if he needed to make the change? Gomes?
Bostock should have stayed on but maybe injured? Richards is creative and talented (just lazy and disinterested).
Appalling second half though. Contract offers for me are very easy to decide...
-
Next season could be a long one with our strike force , or lack of one. I hope the new recruitment man is better than the last one when it comes to strikers.
-
It's quite mad isn't it, get contracts sorted everyone shouted, now it's get rid of them. Good job the contracts havent fully got sorted yet. Makes me laugh.
-

They are probably playing like they don’t give a shit because whilst our board were slack on getting contracts sorted these players found clubs elsewhere and are now doing their best not to get injured.
-
Marquis misses another Penalty.
Why is he taking penalties? He literally tapped it to the keeper.
-
That second half was embarrassing. It looked like a Prem club v a non league team. Their players were all running hard until the very end, making sure their passes got to someone else in a grey shirt. We just gave in, pathetic. Only players to come out with any credit were Horton & Greaves & maybe Bostock. Honestly if I was AB I would tell the board where they can shove their job!!
-
On the bbc website, if i click on to our match report then on the same page go to the other results in the division, they are all from January and the league table has Burton at the bottom.
Weird.
-

The best person to find good strikers at this level lives in Donny - Lee Turnbull!!
-
The thing is....we out played Burton the first half, so to me that shows that Butler did a good job in lifting the team to be combative, it also shows he was prepared to change the formation...... Second half Burton stepped up and got in our faces.....once our two central defenders were closed down it was game over and “ how many do you want to score” ?
Simms is a luxury
Smith is too small and plays the percentages
Fej and Bogle are just not adaptable
We have some players that do the easy stuff well and some that can’t....from now until the season end I would hope that we can be identifying what style we want to play
The shortest guy on the pitch needs to be the chuffin goalie....
-

Serious question.....what teams do you think ANY of this current squad would be wanted and by whom?

I agree, I don’t have a chuffing clue who would want this bunch right now but I really wouldn’t be surprised if half of them are playing like this as they know they will not be with us past the summer. They will still have these contracts lined up as long as they don’t get themselves injured. A dozen lazy performances at the end of this season isn’t going to change that for many clubs
