[DonnyBazR0ver]

Strong team. DFP said James and Halliday were doubtful but at least Halliday made it.

[IDM]

Very strong line up.. one I would be happy to see starting any league one fixture. 

[NickDRFC]

Strong looking team, not a great bench but with the new loan signings plus those missing tonight will soon rectify that.

[Alan Southstand]

Got sound, no picture!

[drfchound]

Good starting eleven.


I hope we can get the game won earlyish as i dont thing that DM will want to keep some of the players on for more than an hour or so and as someone else said, the bench is a bit weak.

[DonnyOsmond]

Playing 4-3-3?

Looks like a midfield of Gomes-Whiteman-Richards

[drfchound]

CJ looking a bit wobbly at left back.

[scawsby steve]

What's happening? Anything?

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Anything to shout about? DFP says we've just started to play a bit. Half chances from corners?

[dknward2]

We are slowly stepping it up but still nothing really happened

[DonnyOsmond]

Nothing of note. We've had most of the attacks but not getting shots off. Jones hasn't had much to deal with either.

They are talking about shopping, so no

[bpoolrover]

Not much happening but better than we were at the start, surprised Bradford have made so many changes from there last match

[drfchound]

Jon Taylor looking really sharp.

[dknward2]

Hopefully we can win this all about the money and the confidence that winning brings

[Alan Southstand]

Poor first half. Passing all over the place. Only Taylor looking dangerous in spurts!

[drfchound]

HT. Rovers doing ok but not enough.
Every player looks to be aware of what is expected of them.
For me, Taylor, Whiteman and Gomes are the most likely to create a breakthrough.
Fej looks every inch the centre forward we have been lacking.

[DonnyOsmond]

Taylors pulling their defence all over the place but has been a bit greedy at times.

[dknward2]

Not heard much from richards expecting young jason coming on soon

[IDM]

Poor first half. Passing all over the place. Only Taylor looking dangerous in spurts!

We weren’t brilliant but I would say we are a couple of levels above “poor”.

How many shots have Bradford stopped by blocking.? I reckon about 6 or 7.

We need that bit of quality to unlock their defence, but the 2 or 3 times we have done that, the flag has gone up for offside.  Taylor is causing all sorts of problems and Copps, Whiteman, Wright etc playing well.

Don’t forget this is only the second competitive fixture in 6 months, so I don’t know what you expect.?

Poor, no not quite.

[DonnyOsmond]

Okenabirhie is possibly the player I wished Marquis was.

[dknward2]

Come on Donny getting closer

[dknward2]

Sunderland just won 8-1 vs villa u21

[glosterred]

Sunderland just won 8-1 vs villa u21

With J Ramsey in the side


COYR

Sunderland just won 8-1 vs villa u21

With J Ramsey in the side


COYR

Wasted there!

[glosterred]

A better result is Weeds U21s getting beat 7-0 against Stanley


COYR

[dknward2]

Come on Donny we need to take our chances

[scawsby steve]

Okenabirhie is possibly the player I wished Marquis was.

What, has he scored 60 plus goals in 3 seasons?

He's a great hold-up player, but I doubt he'll score the amount of goals Marquis did. I doubt any of our players will.

[dknward2]

Only game not to have a goal

This is going to penalties hope we have been practicing them
