Mansfield V TLOD

[glosterred]

Tonight’s EFL Trophy team. As expected a number of changes


COYR

[Colemans Left Hook]

theyve made 8 changes

and their flint is on the bench

lets hope our flint strikes in the match

[Donny Dub]

I hope Sotona makes his presence felt tonight.  Good luck to him

[Thorney]

Roberts injured? Cant imagine he is being rested.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

A very youthful front line which is good to see. Gives them valuable game time in a competitive match. Plus another chance for Faulkner to show his worth.

[Colemans Left Hook]

over 7/1 to win on betfair

[steve@dcfd]

Roberts injured? Cant imagine he is being rested.

I would say he’s injured or ill that’s why Kuelya is playing

[Metalmicky]

Chance for the squad and junior players to impress...

[Colemans Left Hook]

that's the strongest bench we have had for a few years ?

[glosterred]

 1 | Almost an opener inside the first 30 seconds for Rovers as Jack Goodman capitalises on hesitation from the Mansfield defence to put him clear on goal inside the box but his shot cannot beat Scott Flinders

0-0

COYR

[Colemans Left Hook]

and we got a second chance

[glosterred]

3 | Another big chance for Rovers. Louie Marsh threads a pass through the eye of a needle into the box for Jack Goodman, who can't get the ball out from under his feet for the shot.

0-0

COYR

[glosterred]

7 | Another good chance for Rovers - and another superb pass into the danger zone from Louie Marsh. He picks out Tommy Rowe on the edge of the box with the veteran switching onto his left foot and drilling narrowly wide

0-0

11 | Bobby Faulkner is penalised for a foul inside the box (or not)


11 | James Gale slots into the bottom corner from the spot to give the hosts the lead


1-0

COYR

Looked like a Broadbent challenge, Faulkner just the one asking why it was given.

2-0 now.

Been a few chances for us too, the difference being our finishing has been sh*te

[glosterred]

17 | Off the bar. Calum Macdonald flicks a header onto the crossbar as a cross is drilled in from the left

2-0


COYR

[Peebles Rover]

And our defence is shocking

[glosterred]

2-0

COYR

[scawsby steve]

Are there many fans there from Donny?

[Peebles Rover]

Doesn’t sound like there’s any!

[Thorney]

Do Bobby and olowu talk. Just tackled each other and nearly gave Mansfield a 1 on 1 with lawlor

[glosterred]

Yellow card

A booking for Deji Sotona

For kicking the ball away after the whistle had gone


2-0


COYR

[glosterred]

29 | So close to a third for Mansfield as Calum Macdonald runs onto the ball in the box and flashes a shot millimetres wide of the far post

2-0

COYR

[Scooter]

There are a few of us here. Playing like a team of strangers. For those who are saying Faulkner should be starting he looks nowhere near ready on this performance
