 Few rumours about Copps doing the rounds this week. He's here tonight. Not sure about George...doubt it very much. #drfc

Is that it then, nothing else happened yet after 30 mins.

BTW, thanks for the update Keepmoatman.

So far Bennett looks sharp and our best player, Wakefield looks good on the ball, Jimmy and Woods absolute shite. Blake has a great touch on him but has 2 stone of pies round his midriff and Andy Warrington should still play for us. Syers and Cotterill not in the game

[eastender]

Half an hour gone and it's still #rufc 0 #drfc 0


Great ball in from Husband, runs through to Syers at back post on the slide but cannot get a touch on the ball and it goes out for goal kick


Kyle Bennett just tries to do a little bit too much after a great run, should have got shot away from edge of box #rufc v #drfc


Great tempo from Rotherham, Rovers struggling to get a good hold of the ball #rufc v #drfc


Another great drive from the dangerous Pringle from outside the area, Woods gets behind it well #rufc v
Ball just wouldn't fall for Johnny Mullins after ball flicked over the top #rufc v #drfc

[eastender]

Great footwork from David Cotterill as he receives on the edge of the area and managed to get a shot away which Warrington saves well

Robbie Blake is struggling at the minute #rufc 0 #drfc 0

 Three great chances in one for Millers. Revell turns Taylor's cross on target, Taylor misses rebound & Woods tips Odejayi's shot onto bar

 

[roverstillidie91]

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP Much more balanced game now after Rotherham's great 15 minute period #rufc 0 #drfc 0


Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

 Ball falls to Cotterill on edge of the area but cannot get enough on his shot and scuffs it wide #rufc 0 #drfc 0
 

[eastender]

Lionel Ainsworth is loving the cut inside and shot technique #rufc 0 #drfc 0

Five minutes to go in the half #rufc 0 #drfc 0

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

@jordilee12 Decent atmosphere. Nice ripple of noise at all times but not a great deal of singing


Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

 The two technical areas here at the New York are miles apart. An observation for you there #rufc 0 #drfc 0
 

[roverstillidie91]

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

 Another superb cross from James Husband and it's David Syers again at the back post but he can't connect again #rufc 0 #drfc 0
 

[roverstillidie91]

Half time #rufc 0 #drfc 0

[roverstillidie91]

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

 Very entertaining game first half. End to end stuff with Rotherham probably shading it #rufc 0 #drfc 0
 

[rover-n-out]

thank you all for the updates.

[Florida Rover]

Can anybody give us an insight on who if anyone is standing out for the Rovers and who is not

[roverstillidie91]

According to Liam Hoden reporting from DFP blake is struggling, fitness issues ?

[afro goal machine]

did andy warrington get a good reception? Good servent and a really nice guy

[roverstillidie91]

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

The uncertainty between defence and goalkeeper we've seen regularly in this pre-season has not been rectified #rufc v #drfc

I have spoke to a Rotherham fan at the game who is giving me updates. They said Kyle Bennett is our main danger.

@finderz4 James Husband has done really well going forward, some great crosses, Keegan looks solid

[roverstillidie91]

Stock and Woods both on for 2nd half

 Great reception for Andy Warrington from Rovers supporters #rufc 0 #drfc 0

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

 Paul Keegan goes to right back with O'Connor and Syers. Jonathan Maxted in goal, replacing Woods #rufc 0 #drfc 0

[roverstillidie91]

Syers, O'Connor and G Woods off, Stock, M Woods and Maxted on. Keegan fills in at right back #rufc 0 #drfc 0

[roverstillidie91]

Liam Hoden‏@liamhodenDFP

 Dean Saunders clearly subscribes to theory that anyone can play at right back #rufc 0 #drfc 0
 
True statement at this moment in time
