I'd say that just about covers it.

Although the cup is an Under-21s competition, clubs can use up to five overage players, as Rovers did for their last 16 win over Huddersfield. However, it was a much more youthful side who made it through to this stage with victory at Southampton last month. From the LT above. So some U21 games Rovers have fielded overage players, sometimes they haven't. It appears to depend on how up-to-speed the seniors are and how in need of a match sharpness. JDT has been fairly consistent.

It's a weird gripe to have. It's great we're in a final.

6-1 was embarrassing. The only place those Forest lads will get a contract when they're released is PNE.

It's all going a bit Football Factory in The Spread Eagle, Mellor.....you fackin slags!

His nickname's Spaghetti apparently.

LT: Rovers will have to wait until the end of the month to find out who their opponents will be in the final, and where it will be played, with Brentford B hosting Fulham on April 27.

You started a thread on him. Trying adding a poll to that

He did. Ended up running a Leisure Centre over Burnley way. Died quite young sadly.

allocation fee? Entry would be just with your ST card I'd imagine. I doubt they'll fill the whole pf the JWL.

You'd think Hull is a must must must win if we want to make the PO's

I played against Ian Brittain about 25 years ago. Think he was playing for Kelbrook. Still a good player. I left my foot in when he cleared the ball and he kicked my foot. He wasn't happy and threw a lump of turf in my face 🙂 Once a Dingle...

More terrifying than exciting, especially leaving the ground if we've won and pipped them to 6th spot!

JDT wants his FB's to come into midfield...but no idea why he ended up on the left-wing for the 1st goal, or in the box for the 2nd goal. JDT's obviously gone Total Football!

Agree with most of that but Szmodics is a 10...he's not a CM. I like the 3 man midfield though. For a possession based team it makes sense to have the extra man in midfield. Wharton-Travis-Buckley would be an good midfield IMO for next season.

Leonard only came on cos Gally was carrying a knock.

Yes @philipl, we've got a horrendous run-in on paper but it results are unpredictable at the end of the season. I wouldn't fancy PNE's fixtures, or Norwich's, or Cov's. Millwall's look the easiest but they are on a bad run of form like us at the moment. Mogga's been talking up S'lands chances, saying if they win their next two home games they are right in the mix. I think 10 points will be enough for Rovers to get in the PO's.

Mogga used to say JRC's best position was AML. Looking at his goal yesterday he may have a point. JRC sees himself as a RB.

REMAINING FIXTURES: Millwall: PNE (a) B'ham (h) Wigan (h) B'pool (a) Rovers (h) PNE: Millwall (a) Swansea (a) Rovers (h) Sheff Utd (a) S'land (h) Norwich: Boro (a) QPR (a) Swansea (h) WBA (a) B'pool (h) Coventry: QPR (a) Rovers (a) Reading (h) B'ham (h) Boro (a) S'land: B'ham (h) Hudds (h) WBA (a) Watford (h) PNE (a) WBA: Stoke (a) B'pool (a) S'land (h) Sheff Utd (a) Norwich (h) Swansea (a)

All change again. S'land back in the race after I wrote them off Friday 🤣 I'm now writing off Watford! I think 70 points might even be enough to get 6th. Two HUGE home games coming up for us. Beat Hull and Cov and we put ourselves in a great position.

PNE aside we couldn't have asked for much better from those results. It's been another shit Easter but we're still in there with a chance. Beat Hull, Cov and PNE and we're probs in the play-offs!

kiss of death

Nobbers 1-0 up and now equal on points with us. They've got Millwall away next

2-1 now
