Play miller RB and push Alebiosu up.

Elvis Costello - Spooky Girlfriend

Yep, we've another exciting game of watching Hedges bomb up and down the wing. I hope their full backs are ready.

Bit of ashame we didn't get Miyoshi in for Birmingham. Would've been destined to score.

Sounds like you will be right on mass changes from Ismaels comments. I cant understand the sense in that personally when we have huge turnover in the team and we need to establish a settled side.

I like the comparison table 🙂 It certainly makes good reading for O'Riordans development Olson also seems to be behind George Pratt in the first team picture seeing as Pratt was involved with the first team during pre season Although this may be because Pratt is a left footed opton, which Ismael seems to like to have available

Olson doesn't seem to get the same hype / attention as Atcheson (came off the bench in the League Cup a couple years ago + a few bench appearances) and Litherland (made the bench 13x last year) - who are 2 and 1 year younger, respectively - but he could be becoming a darkhorse CB prospect after a solid NL loan and now securing a L2 loan. Updating my ramshackle CB trajectory spreadsheet with a few more names: Puts Olson in line with Wharton/Lenihan/AOC/Edwards (and further emphasises O'Riordan's remarkably early start in L1! Although I just realised he first had a couple brief NPL loans that first year + a Scottish Championship loan that second year, so updated slightly. Good to see him starting well with Doncaster)

The Smiths - Girlfriend In A Coma

Looking forwards to seeing the new lads and the young ones tonight. Particularly Tavares and Montgomery in midfield. Miller, Alebiosu, Mullarky Matthews, Tyjon, Kargbo from the start? Should be good.

Travis not gone but seems very likely to get done this week Koji Miyoshi played the second half for Bochum meaning he lost points for ESC slot meaning mafoumbi needs sold or as some have found needs to make his debut for rovers in a league game to give him enough points so he doesn’t require a slot bar that nothing really new a tentative link to John yeboah but not a credible source

Smith - Baby It’s You

It's on Sky Sports+ 👍

What drugs are you on! a hat trick from Gueye.

You would think a National League team would look at that and have the game on the Wednesday instead so they could pick up an extra few quid from away fans. There are some National League Cup games tomorrow, so its obviously not out of the question

Really enjoying following your progress in this, good stuff! Good luck in the semis, maybe Morten can head this one in 😎

The names on the that list put in the public domain would probably bring an end to the Venky tenure !

Was the same last season where a couple clashed with first team games iirc.

My wildcard prediction for the season was that we would be knocked out of both cups by a team lower than us in the pyramid. After watching our 'strongest eleven' on Saturday, knowing it will be a weaker one tonight for the extra squad minutes, are you thinking what I'm thinking? JDT took this competition very seriously but in the last few years, his two seasons aside, we generally stink this competition out. I'm thinking of the home results against Blackpool and Morecambe and that scrape past Oldham. I think it will be one of those nights at Ewood. Nevermind, forget all that. Rovers 6-0 Bantams (Gueye hat-trick)

They were streamed free last year too (with replays to watch after the event in case of fixture clashes with the first team), cannot see that they are streamed at all this season though Looks like National League TV has been sold/merged with DAZN who haven't bothered with this competition

Two of those clash with first team matches. As well as tonight we play Sheffield United on October 21st.

Absolutely. Playing an under strength side.could even things up a lot.

Was it from an AI, or a London based social media "journalist" Apparently will likely be on the bench

Well done Ian and Scott again. Hopefully your contract extensions are being negotiated between your agents and the club - we can't let you both go for free. Get the open top bus provisionally booked 😂😂

Apologies if mentioned already - is this being shown on TV or RoversTV?

Think by the end of the window there will always be someone in for a relatively experienced English keeper at a good age. Even if its to be 3rd choice in the Prem to help with quota's.
