TWO CHANGES FOR ROVERS

Posted on: Tue 16 Feb 2010

Doncaster Rovers manager Sean O'Driscoll has named two changes to the side that beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 at the Keepmoat Stadium last Saturday, as the Rovers take on Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on Tuesday evening.

Loan signing Elliott Ward is brought straight into the starting eleven in place of hamstring victim Shelton Martis, whilst Sam Hird also starts in place of Jason Shackell who is still fully recovering from hernia surgery.

Neil Sullivan starts in goal and is protected by a back four of James O'Connor, Ward, Hird and James Chambers, with O'Connor passing a late fitness test after he was rated 50/50 on Monday.
