That's basically the first team. Should give them a decent game then.

The lineup surprised me but I can’t undersand why Wilks and Marquis were not starting this time last week vs Blackpool? I can only guess McCann underestimated Pool.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Good opportunities for Lund, Khemis and Beestin.

[albie]

Is there summat I don't get!

Why put out a much stronger team in this tinpot cup than we did v Blackpool in the League Cup (Carabao)?

Much more potential income from beating the donkey lashers and getting a good draw than in this competition.

Did GM get the 2 mixed up?

[IDM]

I think GM believes we can go all the way in this competition.. unlike (realistically) in the league cup.?

1-0 to Newcastle. Rowe currently on the floor injured

[Barmby Rover]

One down, against the run of play.

[eastender]

Rowe off

[Barmby Rover]

....and Tommy Rowe injured, could be a costly game for us.

[sedwardsdrfc]

Just our luck if playing a strong team and been positive back fires. GM's done the right thing whatever the result imo

[IDM]

Badly or as a precaution.?

[eastender]

Limped off

[Dare to dream!]

f**k sake, the best i've seen rowe play this year since he first joined on loan

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Newcastle jinx. Wouldn't surprise me if it's one of those 'Not as bad as first feared" injuries!

[Colemans Left Hook]

out of interest just seen the current "Dick Turpin Odds" Robbery* odds on this match at 0-1

rovers 6/4 draw 2/1 newcastle 6/4     thats like 1/4 either team and 2/1 the draw

you could drive a double decker bus between the spread it's that big

* at least he wore a mask when he robbed you

[eastender]

Both Full Backs replaced now

[Scooter]

Lund off injured - mason on

[Dutch Uncle]

Shades of the 'friendly' with Newcastle two years ago that effectively finished Alcock's time with us, and we had 4 injuries?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Ffs. You can't make it up!

[Colemans Left Hook]

Risking key first team players in a poxy tinpot cup that's usually watched by a few hundred people, when we've already got Andrew and Amos doubtful for Saturday; madness.

just got sussed and blocked

[Scooter]

1-1 marquis scores a cracker

[steve@dcfd]

Very good goal from Marquis.
Shame about Tommy Rowe hope he’s fit for Saturday.
With both fullbacks injured only one sub left now.
Newcastle a lot stronger than our second team and young lads so we needed the first team squad if we wanted a result

[IDM]

Let’s wait and see, hopefully the injuries won’t be significant.

[Barmby Rover]

We want a result here, better get the shooting boots on!

[Scooter]

2-1 Newcastle

[Scooter]

May on for Beestin

[steve@dcfd]

Both their goals have come from weak performance from midfield especially Khemis not strong enough. Kane trying to run the midfield on his own the other two not up to it.
