I was typing seems like that's a yes until Dutch's post. Sounds fairly even on i-Follow

[drfchound]

I'm not at the game either mate, elsewhere tonight.
Hoping someone gives us updates.

[CottyRover]

Ali Crawford off, Rowe on. Sounds like a precaution

[CottyRover]

Why does Peter Catt keep referring to us as Doncaster when he refers to the Blunts as United?

[roversdude]

Ooooh trialist and trialist

[drfchound]

Ali Crawford off, Rowe on. Sounds like a precaution

Injury?
Knock or muscle pull.
Any clues given.

[dknward2]

Wilks sounds like a right handful hope he and Marquis can form a good partnership

[drfchound]

Anything much happening to report on.

[ian1980]

Rovers the better of the two teams in the first half having 3-4 good chances but Utd’s keeper made some really good saves.

[dknward2]

Half time sounds like we are edging it but their keeper keeping us out

[drfchound]

Very promising then.

Assume Viera snd Taylor are trialists

[ian1980]

Marosi hasn’t had too much to do. Two long range efforts dealt with quite well.

Defence has looked quite strong, Mason right, Amos left and Butler/Wright in the middle. Dealt with Sharp and Clarke well.

Midfield has put some decent moves together. Wilks looks decent when he gets on the ball and has caused some problems. Crawford went off half way through the half but hadn’t really got too much into the game before that. Looks more a precaution than anything else.

Pretty decent 1st half, hope they carry it on into the second

[dknward2]

You assume correctly

[DonnyOsmond]

Was it more easy on the eye than under Fergie?

[scawsby steve]

Anyone know why Kiwomya isn't in the squad?

IT has to be less boring.

[Dutch Uncle]

Second half lineup:

Lawlor, Lund, Anderson, Butler, Andrew, Trialist(Vieira?), McCullough, Rowe, Beestin, Trialist(Taylor?), May.

Took a knock against deeping so not risked

[ian1980]

Still playing ok despite nearly a full team change.

Utd coming into the game more and should have scored twice. The second, their player put it wide with an open goal in front of them.

[ian1980]

Utd score as the drop in quality from Rovers is clear to see.

Not been anywhere near as good so far in this half with several players not looking good enough.

[dknward2]

Shame to be behind but understandable with our weaker 11 now playing

Did the blunts make many changes for the second half?

[ian1980]

Second for Utd as they break away. No closing down or getting a tackle in. It’s gone too easy for them now. Rovers a bit like headless chickens at the moment

They’ve made quite a few but not as many as Rovers.

Some funny posts coming up then.

[DonnyOsmond]

Not sure how this is a weak XI. 8 would be potential starters. Only Lund, Vieira and May wouldn't get in the first team.

And two trialists.
