Doubt there will be much more than 2 k there to witness a 2-1 win.

Godden x 2

I’d be so frustrated with a crowd that small

William Hill had the first tie on their site. Not sure about the replay though. First leg was also shown in Norway I believe with professional, neutral commentary

Does he need it after already being out for a couple of months? Shouldn’t he have a bit more in the tank than those who have played from the start?

Was Anonymous on Saturday, could do with giving Baka or Max a start and have Godden Fresh for Saturdays massive game

I know there was big pressure from anti-gambling charities to take the rights off bookies for the FA Cup after the last round but wasn’t sure if it had been successful

It wasn't really his fault he was anonymous. Our midfield gave him little to no service all game and MK defenders were doubling up on him so most crosses/balls into the box were dealt with relatively easily. Plus there's only so much he can do when the midfield leave 40-50 yard gaps between themselves and their own striker.

Report I heard said the contract runs until 2024 or something so couldn’t change before then.

Not sure they could do that legally tbh, even if I agree with their stance. It is pretty abhorrent tbh but who'd think any different would happen in Spiv Britain.

They were in discussions with bbc about showing the games so they backed down somewhat

£135,000 prize money if we beat Bristol and another 180k if we beat Brum. Thats a decent wedge

Plus likely TV money in the following round. That's a long way off but I'm sure its in Robins' mind

Take Godden out of the team and the drop in quality of the options up front is huge - probably the only position other than goalkeeper. Hiwula would be a better bet than Biamou or Bakayoko but he seems to have burnt some bridges

Dabo ……………………..McAllum

...…..Allen..……...Westbroke
………….Godden

Try and get the game won within the first 45, this team needs to learn to go for the jugular and make the most of their leads, especially at home. Get 2 up and pull Godden, Westbroke and a CB after 45-60mins for Baka Ohare and Pask

He wouldn't work in that role but he would be an option alongside another striker

Should have enough to win. But I think this is more likely:

.................Marosi......................
........Rose McFadz Hyam
Dabo ……………………..McCallum
.............Walsh...Allen.............
..................O'Hare................
……..Godden....Biamou

Weather forecast won't help. But I refuse to be deterred!

Sooner have him fresh for Doncaster, but hopefully the staff know best!

The lousier the weather, the more I'd be tempted to go 2 up front, as defenders more prone to mistakes. Will have to be careful re tippy tappy in our own 6 yard box too!

Haha - just remembered the published crowd for Ipswich cup home game, so whatever the attendance they may announce it as that. ££££s for the bloke on the cash turnstile!!

School night, Shit weather, Rovers again, hardly glamour tie, Tickets selling ok ish, maybe a bit more than 2500 depending on Rovers numbers which really wont be more than 3-400 I imagine.

I thought we should've made changes in the initial game and it appears keeping the unchanged team has started to show.

So I'll go with bringing in Mason, Pask, Allen and O'Hare. McCallum, Shipley and Westbrooke to drop to the bench and one of the CB's. Eccles on the bench for one of Walsh or Kelly late of if conditions allow.

Not going to guess if we'll go through but would be nice for the £££ and the Brum tie (and chance to progress further)

Just been told this comments in the CT article about the game. Cheeky buggers!
