I think the £ to leu exchange rate killed that offer..

This is the real test as to where we are at as a team for me. All the previous friendlies have been either academy players (York and Fev) or a game of trying out combinations between regular 1st team players and fringe players who will only play should there be a serious injury crisis (Hull game). Justin has indicated we will use the Bradford game as a if it were a superleague game, e.g. strongest available 17 and no unnecessary interchanges etc. If we come out of this game struggling then I will be a little concerned but in reality I
expect to see a return to our gameplan of last year and the combinations starting to click, a solid defensive performance and a stepping up of our intensity and cohesion from the other games so far. The result is not as important as the performance for this game and hopefully no more injuries!!

Is Matt Orford playing in this one?

Ive heard he is so looking forward to that.

No 1st team players at all in either the York or the Doncaster games, not even so called 'fringe' players. If there had been, we might have at least won one or both. Not sure why this was, they both put out their strongest teams.

You must be paying plenty to REAL first teamers then

I think so.

I there radio coverage?

More importantly will Rovers have a team out that shows their intent? Or will it be second string again?

If stories in the press are to be believed then this will be the game that JM will field his strongest possible side and only make interchanges when required instead of just rolling as it has been in the previous games.

More importantly why should Hull fans be bothered?

Interested to see how Bradford go
