    Rhodes benched

    Guess the plan is to bring him on in the unlikely event we need a goal [!]9786;

    Sorry to say this but they don't want him injured as they are willing to try for the playoffs.

    Its very possible. Bowyer says that's not the case, but what else could he say?

    Rovers 6-5 City

    Not the score! but the ammount of times they have Won FA Cup.

    They have just put Rhodes on, so cup tied my arse! the best way to sell a striker is to put him on against a top side and if he scores! he will be right in the limelight.

    hmm, ok then, comes on and is now cup tied..

    still and all, says a lot that bowyer doesn`t start him against the better opposition, AND we look better for it as a team. maybe he`ll do likewise against the better opposition in the championship in future..

    He picked a team to keep the score down but City reserves turned out to be very poor and Bowyer went for them. Good team selection and tactics.
