Moore options for Doncaster boss

Doncaster boss Darren Moore finally has options as his side push for a place in the top six of Sky Bet League One following a run of three straight wins.

Moore recently welcomed back defender Cameron John and midfielder Matty Blair from injury, with both on the bench for last week’s 2-0 win at Bristol Rovers, and with the latter coming on in the dying stages for his first minutes since mid-September.

It is likely, however, with no new injury worries, Moore will keep faith with the side that won that game for Saturday’s visit of fourth-placed Coventry.

Centre-back Alex Baptiste is “another two or three weeks away”, according to Moore, from returning to training with the group after being out since the second game of the season with an Achilles injury.

Tuesday’s 3-0 FA Cup third-round replay win at home to Bristol Rovers highlighted to Robins what he has described as “good options”.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
