[Archived] Manchester City v Rovers Third Round Replay

[old darwen blue]

Yep. Rubbish team. COYB

That's the spirit!

[Amo]

EDIT: Nvm

[Butty]

@OneRovers: ROVERS: Robinson, Henley, Hanley, Kilgallon, Spurr, Cairney, Lowe, Williamson, Taylor, Marshall, Campbell.

[Mike Graham]

Glad I didn't go if it's a weakend team, the 4000 at least deserve to see the first team go there and battle not roll over.

What an insult to the 4K

[davulsukur]

No Scott Dann? Interesting.

[old darwen blue]

4-2-3-1 it is then. What's up with Gestede?

[Amo]

No Dann OR Rhodes? Oh dear, oh dear.

[old darwen blue]

Subs bench anyone?

[Gally]

4-2-3-1 it is then. What's up with Gestede?

Bench, but GB has been mentioning building up his fitness a fair bit. Probably thinks 90 mins of chasing shadows is too much.

[Steve Moss]

I really don't have a problem with this line-up. It's not as weak as some might make out.

[Ricky]

Interesting and slightly worrying.

[RockinRover]

We really know how to spark the rumours don't we?

I know, let's not include the two most speculated about players in the line up..

[Mike E]

Did he not go straight down the tunnel on sat when subbed might have a knock

Nope. He low-fived the manager, coaches and sat amongst the bench.

[JWUpper]

@OneRovers: Subs: Eastwood, King, Dunn, Olsson, Rochina, Mahoney, Gestede

According to rovers Twitter Rhodes has a recurrence of a niggling injury and Dann got injured yesterday in training...both players there sat with the rest of the squad on the bench though.

[johnradfordsubbuteo]

Does anybody know if Bon Accord rested anybody against Arbroath on12 September 1885?

[Mike E]

Can't help but get a little nervous about Dann and Rhodes' absence. That being said it could equally just be a chance to rest the 2 players who've played every match up to now.

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Blackburn Rovers ‏@OneRovers3m

Hearing Scott Dann limped out of training on Monday and Jordan Rhodes has a reoccurrence of a niggling injury

[davulsukur]

Sat with the rest of the squad but i am sure twitter will have a Rhodes to Wigan and Dann to Palace rumour doing the rounds.

Nixon had probably hit print as well.

[RockinRover]

Apparently both Dann and Rhodes are at the ground but being rested since Dann limped out of training and Rhodes has a niggling injury.

[Jimmy612]

Campbell instead of Gestede it interesting.

Otherwise, and understanding that it appears Rhodes and Dann have niggles, what did anyone else expect?

COYB!

[Mike E]

And the news they're sat with team-mates goes some way to settling those nerves tbh haha

[RockinRover]

Dann out with a groin injury.. which probably brings back horrible memories.

Rhodes out with a foot injury.

[Pelio]

I would hope King gets a run at some point, and I wouldn't mind seeing Mahoney too...

Lets hope Cairney gets plenty of the ball and Marshall/Taylor carry on their good form.

[old darwen blue]

Mahoney must be some player if he's on the bench for this game IMO

[Tom]

Those injuries sure are convenient

May as well just come out and say they are being rested
