MK Dons vs Rovers

[bobjimwilly]

Following Saturday’s terrific win over Hartlepool, BetButler make Rovers 7/4 chances to win at the MK Dons this Tuesday and step up the pressure on the chasing pack.

It’s now five unbeaten for Rob Jones and the boys and they take on a Dons team who are without a win in eight and have dropped in the bottom half of the table, though they do have a couple of games in hand. Saturday’s stalemate with Preston at the Stadium:mk was their third 1-1 draw in a row. A similar scoreline against Rovers can be backed at 11/2, while the draw is 5/2.

Surprisingly, given the two teams’ respective league positions, Karl Robinson’s side are favourites to get the three points at 6/4.   

Despite topping the table, BetButler still aren’t convinced that Rovers are the real deal when it comes to winning the League 1 title and have Brian Flynn’s squad at 9/2 to be outright winners, the same odds as Brentford and behind Sheffield United (9/4). Swindon are also 9/2 while Yeovil are 10/1 and it’s 14/1 and upwards the others.

Think weve been underdogs in most of our away games.(betting wise)

Id love to know if Id put a tenner on us on every away game how much Id be up now?

[glosterred]

Rovers: Woods, Quinn, McCombe, Jones, Spurr, Cotterill, Lundstram, Harper, Husband, Coppinger, Hume Subs: Maxted, Wakefield, Griffin, Howieson, Bennett, Paynter, Sinclair

MK Dons: McLoughlin, Lewington, Williams, Potter, Bowditch, Chicksen, Lowe, Powell, Lines, Kay, Chadwick subs: Kouo-Doumbe, Gleeson, McLeod, Flanagan, Baldock, Rasulo

[grayx]

Harper?
Fcuksake.

[MachoMadness]

Harper starts, oh boy. Hopefully Lundstrum can carry him towards something resembling a performance.

[steve@dcfd]

Lets Hope Brian can bring another central midfield in for Saturday we cannot carry Harper, if we hope to keep going at the top.

[Barmby Rover]

Get Howieson on!!!!!

[glosterred]

Trouble is with Keegan and Syers injured, we don't have much of an option. Although I would have played Cotterill in the centre with Lundstram and Copps on the wing. Paynter would have partnered Hume up front

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Oh shit. I thought we'd got past this. Harper playing in front of Griffin, Howieson, Bennett or Paynter? Any of which could have been shuffled about to put out a balanced team.

That's crap I'm sorry.

I hope the rest of the lads can cope and I really hope for a good result, but with that clown playing I can't bring myself to listen to the commentary. Too stressful.

 

 

[glosterred]

Enough of this negativity - Harper to be MOTM today

[steve@dcfd]

I am sorry boys but we do not have another defensive midfield player, with only Griffin maybe in that position. Now Cotterill cannot tackle when on the wing so centre midfield is not his position, Howieson is a winger also. So we need a defensive midfield player.

[Barmby Rover]

A win for Rovers 0 -2. MOTM Copps.

[RedJ]

How do I change commentary to the MK one (just in case ours goes balls up)? not used Player before, would like to be prepared for any eventuality (dog's at the feet already!).

[southwestexile]

2-1 to us, Cotts free kick and Hubby last minute winner ghosting in on he far post

[DonnyBazR0ver]

I am sorry boys but we do not have another defensive midfield player

Which defensive midfield player did we play on Saturday?

When you get logged in, you will have to chose between the commentaries by clicking in the appropriate check box. At any time you can switch from one to t'other.

Cheers DBR. If only I could get the bloody sound through headphones suspect that's down to my computer though

[rover-n-out]

Anybody know of any live sreams that actually cover lge 1 games. Otherwise it's Man u v Real, while keeping an eye on here. Cheers.

It's not going to be on unless it's broadcast on an international channel somewhere and I highly, highly doubt that it is.

[River Don]

I'd play Hume and Copps in a 5 man midfield with Paynter upfront and Harper on the bench.

[rover-n-out]

Thanks RA.

[RoversAlias]

Trust me I'd much rather be watching Rovers than Man U - Madrid, like you

[rover-n-out]

Any early indications as to how Rovers have started?

[RedJ]

Quiet from both sides it seems. Early half chance when the keeper cocked up a clearance.

[IDM]

Ours or theirs?

Theirs. Fell to Hume I think, couldn't make the right contact with it from what I made of it.

[donnyoddlegs]

Wolves winning

[MachoMadness]

RS reporting "extremely steady" start to the game. AKA very boring with nowt happening.

[Standanista]

MK with a good chance on pen spot but chose to pass not shoot just now, otherwise no dramas but them most possession. Rovers defending solid, not much of a crowd

[DearneValleyRover]

We need to settle down, we can take these
