The team news is going to be the first interesting thing - including the bench.
I would go with Sykes on the bench. He played well the other night against Wimbledon. I have criticised his end product and yes Wimbledon were pretty crap. However, he was banished for a while and could have sulked. He clearly has chosen to go the other way, keep working hard and on Tuesday put in a performance demonstrating he was willing to fight for a place.Stevens

Looks like our best 11 at present.
Subs: Eastwood, Grayson, Forde, Kelly, Lee, Winnall.... plus 1.
Not really sure who deserves the final sub place out of Hanson, Sykes or Agyei. Agyei might miss out now we have Lee and Barker - same reason could be given for Sykes (and Hall). Not sure Hanson is needed if Grayson can be used as cover for CB, LB and Gorrin.
I would Chuck him in from the start and then bring goal machine shodipo on for the last half hourIt'll be interesting to see if KR starts Barker. He might be tempted (and I certainly would) but probably more likely to give a half hour run out in the second half to blood him into the team.
The nature of the modern winger means we will see a lot of game to game changes on the wings in my view. .It'll be interesting to see if KR starts Barker. He might be tempted (and I certainly would) but probably more likely to give a half hour run out in the second half to blood him into the team.
That means he’s def playing on SaturdayDoncaster Rovers boss Darren Moore gives update on Josh Sims and John Bostock

Henry on the wing? No Shodipo?!I've changed my mind!
Henry has been very good when played in midfield, but I feel he's got his mojo back, and even though he lacks the pace to be an out and out winger, when he's on form, he still offers so much further forwards.
I initially went with Sykes, on the right of a front three, as he's performed well in that position before, certainly better than when he's been used on the left, but he was excellent on Tuesday, in a more central midfield role, a role that he looks a lot more comfortable in, and was involved in two of the goals, and as I've said in the past, it's a role I'd like to see more of him in.
However, I wouldn't be surprised to see Kelly get the nod instead of Sykes, but I'd go with:
There's a hell of a lot of talent and creativity in that side!

I'll be happy with a point. We'll see if we're the real deal or flat track bullies only able to beat teams below us like the graphic below implies

We shall see.
I know, I'm torn, can't decide and keep going back and forth on a number of options, glad I'm not Robbo!Henry on the wing? No Shodipo?!
No, no, no! How is Mide going to feel being dropped after a goal and an assist?!
The boy is massively underrated by quite a few on here for some reason. Don’t get it myself.
Keep Henry central as well!
“KIDS, WAKE UP! IVE SIGNED TOO MANY FOOKIN’ WINGERS!?” He must be having withdrawal symptoms right now. He has finally got his wish! He also has quite the selection headache ahead of him..Robbo wakes up at 4am on Saturday morning in a cold sweat.... I’ve signed too many feckin players.... aaaaaaarrrrrggghhhhhh
