Burnley v Doncaster Rovers

[VivaRovers]

I'll get things moving then, here's Viva Rovers' match preview for this game.

[CusworthRovers]

I'd go with that team too Viva. Seems an obvious one, although a surprise of Wilson in there could be on the cards. That would be on the issue of Stock having family issues and those problems getting worse.

I hate Paterson. I hate him cos he's dangerous. Very fast, very intelligent, very busy and deadly in the box.

Still I'll go 0-1 (Thomas)

[dknward2]

dunno how to view this one burnley should be on paper be on to win, but rovers always ones to upset everything (in a good way for us), hoping for a win to move us in top 8 if results go our way, but more than likely it will be a draw either rubbish 0-0 or 1-1 and a mad last 10 mins with both teams pushing for the win

with that in mind 2-0 donny hayter and copps with healy both assist

[LuckyGirl]

Wayne Thomas interview suggests he might be on a goal or an assist.

Rovers to win by a goal anyway.

[Filo]

Muzzy in, JOC moved over to left back

[Barmby Rover]

Tough game tonight, a draw 1-1. Stock to score.

Note that we only have 6 on the bench again - would it not be worth the while of giving one of the youth team some exposure to the first team?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Tough game.

3 points would give us that belief that we can be a force. It would send a mini shock wave around the Championship.

I saw Burnley's live game v Preston and they were awful for the most part. Saved by some iffy refereeing and towards the end some very direct play.

A point would be ok but let's go for all three !!

JOC to keep Eagles quiet. Hayter, Healy and Copps to make  Clark Carlisle dizzy !!

2-0. Rovers

[RoversAlias]

I like that line-up. O'Connor was terrific at left back recently (I believe it was the Scunny game after Friend got injured, might be wrong though) and it gives me a bit of confidence there. That said this is a really tough game and I won't be surprised if we get nothing from it.

Just listening to the Burnley commentary - their summariser sounds very confident, not only for today for the whole season. Pretty much dismissing our bench - 'never heard of any of them'.

C'MON ROVERS!

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Pace could be key here. They've gone with Patterson, Rodriquez and Eagles.

Ideally would prefer JOC in the middle, or even Hird alongside Thomas. The midfield therefore will have to work very hard to cut off the supply.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

never heard of any of them'.

Let's hope he will remember them after tonight ! Brooker sure to get on and score now.

[snods big brother]

Not a good start!

[Barmby Rover]

Just a quick hurrah for the home fans, marathons not sprints!

[DearneValleyRover]

Chuffin' hell under the cosh already.

Clearly he's an ignorant moron then. How can he have never heard of Willo or Brooker at the very least?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Handball decision gone our way !! (thomas could have given penno away)

[Viking Don]

`Jezus wept, nearly jumped outta me skin there, 'HAND BALL'! t**ts!

Because neither are is brother and dad  

[DonnyBazR0ver]

They can't keep this up. Get through first 20 mins and it'll be a different game. Still worried about pace through middle though.

[ScillyRover]

YYYeeessss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hayts on a run....

[Akinfenwa]

Get in Hayter.

[VikingJames]

1-0 Hayter!  

[bedale rover]

[DavTrav]

Who was it that said we should drop Hayter for Brooker??!

[DearneValleyRover]

                                 
Hayter what a legend.

[Bristol Red Rover Jnr.]
