Good to hear Markanday playing well. He's the one who I have most hope and expectation for.

Pickering on for Scott Wharton it seems...

Sounds like it’s pre planned though so don’t think we have to panic 🙏

[Paul Mellelieu]

Maybe JDT thinks Pickiering can fill in at CH.

[AspRover]

Gives Scott a break I guess, does JDT really see Pickering as a centre back though? Two games in a row, unless Edun is playing central.

[neophox]

Dack scores 2-0!!!

[oldjamfan1]

DACKY!! 2-0

[ItsRoverZ]

Bradley dack!! 2-0

[neophox]

Pickering can play centre half...

Quality reporting from BBC. Doubt even Mowbray would go with this.

They said in the pre game team news . “Rovers have history with this completion winning it back in 2001 beating Middlesbrough.”

must of missed that final

[WacoRover]

DACK!!! Yes, glad to see he has the touch

[benhben]

Hard one with Dack as he seems to be hardly in the game and doesn't suit JDT style but still has an eye for goal.

Possible, Burnley been playing Charlie Taylor left centre back

Almost a third from Vale...parried by the keeper.

Who else do we have?  He’s probably our 4th CB at the moment

God I love JDT. Classic football manager type behaviour. Doesn't matter if the player is out of position, more important is the rest for the first teamer.

[bluebruce]

3-0, Dolan

[neophox]

3-0!!! Dolan!!

[ItsRoverZ]

Super dolan for 3!   Big fan of dolan, never stops this lad! Big season for him

[neophox]

Right footed bottom corner from Dolan.

Aye, although I'd have put a CB on personally, Pickering is a first teamer too. Annesley perhaps, although might have been premature at 1 up, makes sense now though.

[nathan_rovers1]

Reckon this will bump up the numbers for WBA! 

[neophox]

Seems JDT has urged us to step up after a dull first half.

[WacoRover]

Yes, YES!!!
