[chaddyrovers]

so what's people team selection for this game? 

my team 

                   Pears

Brittain Carter Hyam Ribeiro 

             Buckley Travis

Dolan       Dennis     Karbgo

                 Gueye

Subs:- Toth Sanderson JRC Forshaw ACD Hedges Weimann Ohashi Woodrow

[BankEnd Rover]

Hopefully Lowe won't be picking the team.

Foreshaw, Weimann and Hedges should not be starting. 
 

[roversfan99]

Critical that we get a manager in for a full week of training.

Sadly not happening.

How come you've included Dennis when he's not match fit? Why isn't he playing in U21s tomorrow like Carter & Ohashi?

[chaddyrovers]

Maybe Dennis will play for the under 21's tomorrow. No idea if he will.

Goodness me, 12.30pm kick off?

Norwich fans having to set off the night before to get here 🙄

Football without fans in nothing….

Is it even the main game on sky or is it one of the additional ones you can choose from?

Shambles.

Leeds v West Brom is the main game, so we are one of the afterthoughts.

Still, if we hadn’t agreed to the new SkyTv deal imagine how little we would have been paying our new manager then !

[OnionBalaji]

Would like to see (assuming cantwell back is better) 

 

 

               Toth

Britain Carter hyam ribiero 

           Travis   JRC

ACD      Ohashi     Kargbo 

                   Gueye 

 

not a fan of ACD on all showing so far this season but prefer to Dolans pirouette to nothingness 

when JRC is on it offers goal threat and doesn’t shirk a tackle 

give Ohashi 45 m and bring on Cantwell at half time and Dennis 

[Andy]

There's no way Pears plays first team football again, if I was picking the side.
It's clear the defenders have zero trust in his abilities.

Toth/Michalski

Brittain Carter Hyam Ribeiro

Travis Tronstad

Dolan Cantwell Kargbo

Gueye

This game is one of them where owt could happen. 
 

rovers 2 1 Norwich we have one last cupul of league homes at home but will need to be at our best here. Norwich always seem to score against us wankers. 

[Plastics]

Never rule out a response. Just like how Swansea could have always been a defeat and a bump back down to earth (shouldn't have been to the extent it was, though), this one could just as easily be a two goal comfortable win. Norwich are very hit and miss, especially their top scorer who I heard a Norwich fan described as playing like a schoolboy. Apparently refuses to pass most of the time and just goes for goal. Once he's double marked he's ineffective, though. Remains to be seen if we actually do that though. Apparently he will be leaving at the end of the season to bigger things so the fans haven't even taken to him despite the goals.

 

Too early to predict a team until we know who is back. Ohashi getting zero minutes in the last game means I presume he won't start. No idea on Carter yet. Nor Cantwell. I'd stick Buckley in for Forshaw but the hole is the difficult position to decide. I'd probably go for Dolan and stick Kargbo and another winger in but the other wingers are so out of form it's tough to decide who

[superniko]

How much of Emmanuel Dennis' alleged £40k a week are we paying for him to sit on the bench for the whole month of February? How does he get match fit without playing matches, should he not have been playing in the U21s fixtures? He started the match vs Wolves 15 days ago, so hit fitness must have been deemed okay then.

So far an absolute dreadful bit of 'significant investment'

[MarkBRFC]

Rovers 0 Norwich 2

Out of the play offs never to be seen again.

[ruggles1995]

No idea what to predict. But if I was picking from whats currently fit to play id go:
pears
britain hyam Carter Ribeiro

Trav buckley
dolan weiman Kargbo

Gueye

Ahhhh you meant Vankers

[Hasta]

I always think Josh Sargent is the key to them going forward. Always thought he looks very good at this level and surprised nobody has ever come in for him

This season he's been missing for almost exactly half of their games.

They've lost 8 whilst he's been absent and only 3 whilst he's been starting.

 He's scored 7 in the last 6.

[Dan]

Struggling to get motivated for this match after Saturday and the new manager fiasco. 

[Tricky]

wouldn't be surprised Wagner comes in and this is his first game
