Team for tonight

[The Red Baron]

Cody Prior and Jacob Fletcher are Youth players. Two games in and we're down to the bare bones.

[dknward2]

No point in risking Liam and copps this early and if not fit enough to play no point in being on bench shame French Ben has been cleared in time

[drfchound]

If we need someone from the bench to change the game in our favour there isn't much to offer.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

More than happy with starting line up though.

[drfchound]

Yes, agreed.
I was worried that he might play a bunch of kids for this game.

[dknward2]

They have also made 5 changers don't know the reasons or if they are just on bench but still unsettled first 11

Cody Prior and Jacob Fletcher are Youth players. Two games in and we're down to the bare bones.

Yes we are, no Blair ( I assume he may have been given time off), Copps and Mandeville not risked. Then Khemis still no international clearance, Williams short term? Baudry, McCullough and Kiwomya long term injured. We still need Houghton and a CB to make sure our squad is complete.

[5minstogo]

Very light of options up front without Williams and Kiwomya.

[glosterred]

Wasn't aware of this

For those wondering, if we go to extra time, a FOURTH substitute is allowed. So, if you've used none, you can do 4 in that half hour #BCAFC

You can still only do a maximum of three substitute changes in the normal 90 minutes though #BCAFC

[dknward2]

Actually a good idea

[balbyrover]

Fair play to Ferguson for fielding a strongish side. (As strong as he could really.)

I would like a good cup run and hate to see managers resting players in the cup, we are 2 games into the season... why would you?
The fans who've travelled deserve to watch our best possible 11.

[ScillyRover]

Yesssssss !!!!!

[glosterred]

Get in Alfieeeeeee


COYR

[glosterred]

8' Ball into the area finds John Marquis, his effort is saved by Doyle but Alfie May turns it home 0-1 #DRFC


COYR

[DearneValleyRover]

Get innnnnnnn

[dknward2]

Marquis saved Alfie taps in

Get in

[les@donr]

Evening everyone. Great start.

[DearneValleyRover]

6 attempts in the first 20 minutes and Rowe is playing behind the strikers, please Fergie keep playing him there he's wasted on the left.

[dknward2]

8 shots and 5 on target in 30 mins just need to put it the back of the net

[Silkscarf]

Come on lads, a cup run would be nice. Mid-table mediocrity in the league is OK for me this season.

[eastender]

1-1

[dknward2]

Damm it

[Bristol Red Rover]

That was coming - this is where we show our quality, or not.

[glosterred]

1-1 damn, Lawlor maybe should have done better at his near post


COYR

[DearneValleyRover]

All those chances missed bugger

[Silkscarf]

Where's Idler? My sister is also from Donny (50 years in Bradford area almost) but is a Bradford STH. We need to stuff these tonight.

[glosterred]

35' Bradford broke into the area on the right, and Dominic Poleon smashed an effort home 1-1 #DRFC


COYR

[balbyrover]

Let's see how we bounce back. Really don't want us to get beat tonight.
Nowt worse than watching cup draw when Rovers are out!
