Doncaster Rovers v Charlton Athletic Match Thread

Very likely, and possibly both, but it might also be Millwall, Barnsley and Yeovil. Even the Massive could slip back down without Wickham. And there is often one team which suddenly collapses from a position of apparent near-safety. A run of games when they don't get the breaks and panic can set in. Might happen to Bolton or Birmingham.

 

Alnwick;
Wilson;Morrison;Dervite;Fox;
Cousins; Astrid;
Stephens; Jackson;
Kermit; Pigott.

Fox and Wilson are both good crossers, They supply the width with Cousins and Astrid to cover when they go forward.

 

Why leave out Church now he is finding some form? Scored a good one and created two in his last two matches plus a lot of unselfish running and tackling back. Plus he is a better fit with Kermit. Church before Pigott, but Pigott before Sordell.

 

I would play Steven Hawkins with a flat battery before W..K Marvin. And you can take that to the bank.

 

OK but aim to give Pig a decent run-out.

 

Church ain't great, but I think some here are too hard on him. Same as they were on Wilson, and what a great servant he is turning out.

The time to give Pigott a run-out was away to Oxford. If CP didn't trust him then, he won't start him in our most vital match of the season.

 

That'll do for me.

 

with all the transfer rumours going round today, it'll be interesting to see who we put out tonight. hopefully dale and kermit start

 

Kermorgant will start I think... Dale wont

 

Why not?

 

Can someone please confirm who we have signed from Roland's coterie of clubs?

I've seen so many names linked to us, but I am honestly lost with it all.

Ta.

 

I guess out midfield tonight will no longer include Stephens. Can I change my prediction to 2-0 Doncaster? Both goals in the first half.

 

Evening all

Charlton: Alnwick, Lennon, Evina, Morrison, Dervite; Wilson, Cousins, Jackson (c), Stephens; Kermorgant, Church

Subs: huram-Ulien, Green, Sordell, Harriott, Wood, Pigott, Ajdarevic

Doncaster: Turnbull, Husband, Duffy, Brown, Sharp, Khumalo, Tamas, Keegan, Wellens (C), Meite, Coppinger

Subs: Maxted, Quinn, Furman, Cotterill, De Val, Peterson, Stevens

So Stephens and Kermorgant both start, which is very good news, as well as Lennon making his first start. Looks like we'll play a 5-3-2 (maybe 3-5-2).

COYA

 

strong team. hopefully with the inclusion of kermit and stephens it means they're not going anywhere.

 

Lets be positive tonight guys seeing its been doom and gloom lately despite us getting into the 5th round.... 2-1 to us, comeback after Sharp gives Donnie the lead...COYR

 

Nice to see Kermit and Dale start! Proves nothing mind you but maybe......

 

Sounds like we might actually be playing 4-4-2, with Evina at LM and Lennon at LB.

We're under way.

 

Tamas shoots over the top.

 

Jackson shoots from range, but it curls high and wide.

 

Donny on top so far.
