    Some fans are far to critical of Rowe in my opinion.
    He's not going to be a super sub.
    The guys got talent unlike previous incomnants Guthrie been a prime example easy to forget but I haven't.

    Probably Vernam like @Botswana Bantam@Botswana Bantam suggested.

    He's already played as a striker against Exeter, wasn't as effective as Rowe or Cook, but showed he can play that central role with a little bit of pressure taken off him by not having to play up front on his own.

    I'd read some crazy stuff on here mentioning him and championship in the same sentence. Give your heads a wobble. he has got some good attributes but not much use unless the ball is played less than a yard away from him. Cook comes striaght back in after the Mansfield game.

    Yes having the players available we have, it shouldn't be be all and end all because Cooke might be missing, hearing Cooke talk on Radio Leeds and the media generally it will have to be a bad pull/knock to keep him out.

    I'd play Donaldson if Evans isn't fit and play Rowe behind him. I just don't see what Clarke brings to the side apart from he apparently "works hard".

    Great to get 3 points when we are not at our best.

    I thought that, at 2-0 and 2-1 up we were trying to do too many difficult long passes and we were giving the ball away far too much. That said you can't fault the effort and team spirit and that helped to carry us home.

    Man of the match, not the easiest choice to make and although Cooke was fairly impressive as usual, but my vote goes to Paudie for another commanding performance at the back.

    Lots to learn from that one and I'm sure our management team will be able to make the necessary adjustments.

    I wouldn't be adverse to playing the Don with regards Rowe playing along side a big guy, I don't think Clarke has let us down this season but as some have said we have a few options now most of our players are fit.

    He's what I would describe as raw. I'm glad he is within our ranks, he will play a part in the season finale but the season won't hinge on him.

    Watt had a good first half but seemed to run out of steam.

    Keep up this form and looking at the bottom end of the chamionship there could be some tasty yorkshire derbies next season in league 1.
