v Wrexham (h) - FA Cup - 29/1/24, 7:30pm

[Paul Mellelieu]

352 I assume 

[sharpysharps86]

Didn't really expect Adam to start this one so not too surprised to see him on the bench. More surprised that we signed a left back who isn't preferred as the left back now that Pickering is out injured.

Let's hope Garrett does a good job there tonight as it looks like he'll be filling that role based on that line-up.

Moran playing centrally alongside Tronstad as well by the looks of it. Wouldn't be surprised if its Gallagher out wide and Dolan through the middle as well.

Saving Adam Wharton for the league on Saturday

Hm, not a great sign. Wouldn't want Wharton to really be off in the next couple of days.

Travis was on the bench on NYD. Less than a week later he was holding up an Ipswich shirt.

It'll be like Hill's last game - they won't risk him unless they absolutely have to.

Don't want him to get injured so he's there in an emergency.

Travis is still a Rovers player.

I couldn’t think of one player, that tells you all you need to know.

Given the sums involved I wouldn’t think they’d want to risk him even in an emergency.

 

[Tugay-is-God]

I guess it makes sense. We obviously have a price in mind that we would sell at, they don't want to risk him. 

[Tugayisgod]

Some huge decisions to be made here over the coming days.

This is the most important 3 days since Broughton arrived.

It's more likely that Palace have edged closer to our valuation so not risking him tonight.If it was definitely on already then he wouldn't be on the bench tonight

Chrisene is a LB isn’t he? Why the hell isn’t he playing? Bizarre.

Has he shown anything to suggest he should be starting? (I agree with you but genuine question based on u21 games)

He played well against Sparta U21s, probably one of our best players. Looked shaky against hudds in the league yea but we’re playing Wrexham here…

JRC may make up the trio.

Probably a question of physicality - imagine it came down to who could handle it better 

[rigger]

The official site Rovers team, only has ten men. Is it a Freudian slip, to leave out Dolan ?

Yeah but then who would be playing wingbacks?

I could be wrong but very surprised if it isn't 4 at the back 

[Gav]

Anyone not at the game can find it on Sky chanel 965 - BBC Wales.

4 at the back with JRC and Garrett at full back.

[WacoRover]

Maidstone scored the huge 4th round upset. Score one for National League South.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a League 2 outfit put up big numbers in the 1st half today, but Rovers journey doesn’t end, 

4-2, COYB!!!
