Feel as though this will be the toughest game yet - They have some tricky wingers so our full backs need to be on form. Moran masterclass incoming! What are these “ tricky wingers “ you speak of ? Aren’t they an endangered species ? Quote

Team for me : Pears Brittain. Carter. Hyam. Pickering Travis. Wharton. Moran Hedges. Gallagher. Szmodics Would bring Moran into midfield to let Szmodics replace Dolan up top. Woohoo, called it.... Though till we start not sure who will be in midfield and who up top out of Moran and Szmodics. Quote
Miller11 Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 That lineup picks itself today. Interesting choices on the bench. Happy to see Gilsenan there as I think he’s a better option than Markanday. 5 Quote
sharpysharps86 Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 Strongest possible line-up there I think. Hoping Moran can really cement his place. Didn't realise Plymouth are Gallagher's boyhood team. Would be nice for him to score 😁. 1 Quote

roversfan99 Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 Weak bench for a Championship game. Hill, Rankin Costello, Ennis, Telalovic and Sigurdsson to return but we wont have a clean bill of health most weeks. Quote

With a two week break coming up, JDT might well go the 90 minutes using no subs. The players are fit enough. 1 Quote

Happy to see Gilsenan there as I think he’s a better option than Markanday. With Markanday not making the bench with Sigurdsson, Ennis and Telalovic all to return its not looking that promising for Markanday. Would like to see Gilesenan and Garrett get game time today. Bith deserve it I think. 1 Quote
simongarnerisgod Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 no jimmy hill on the bench?????? Quote
WacoRover Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 I like this lineup. With incoming players, we have a strong roster going forward (esp if Sig’s is healthy), 1-2, COYB! Quote

While he scored a goal against Harrogate I think he was certainly our least effective player, quite a few attacks broke down with him. Quote

Neal Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 Strong line up today, a lot of technical ability in Wharton, Hedges and Moran. Away from home i'd always take a point. As someone else said, kill the first 20 mins and grow into the game. Hopefully we don't play our way into trouble. 1-1 Quote

They also play Palace tomorrow Our bench does not fill me with confidence. The youth are exciting for the future and for cup games but it's a seriously weak bench. Quote

harryhealless1928 Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 What is most interesting is the players left out ...aka not even on the bench. Im referring to Markanday & Buckley of course! Quote

Or more likely, whether chasing the game or to manage it, we will need the bench and there is not much there. Quote
Guest Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 What's the chances of the goals drying up for us today, having hit a hatful on Wednesday evening (albeit against woeful opposition)? Such is the life of the Rovers fan, our expectations so badly battered in recent times, that I don't suppose anyone would be surprised if we failed to gel in front of goal today. Having said that, the JDT approach seems to be somewhat more coherent and positive, taking each game as an opportunity to refine his team's style. Hoping for a good result, but would take a draw on the road. Head 2-1 Pilgrims plunder Heart 1-1 honours even Heaven 0-3 Rovers rampant COYB! Quote
