West Ham Utd 1 Doncaster Rovers 1 (10/03/12)
v
Saturday 10th March 2012, K.O. 3PM, Boleyn Ground, London E13
Reverse Fixture: Sat 13th August 2011, Doncaster Rovers 0-1 West Ham United, http://www.kumb.com/report.php?id=101153" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
West Ham's first Saturday 3PM kick-off since 21st January sees Doncaster Rovers travel to London to take on Sam Allardyce's side at the Boleyn Ground. Currently on a run of 3 draws in a row, The Hammers will be hoping to change that and gain 3 points in their quest for promotion against the side that sit just one place off the bottom of the division.
West Ham are unbeaten in 7 games at home, since the 2-1 defeat at the hands of Burnley back in December last year.With 4 wins, and the rest draws, the odds would favour a home win, but with the nervy atmosphere at the Boleyn Ground, Doncaster will be hoping to improve on their 3 away wins for the season.
With no injuries reported after the 1-1 draw with Watford on Wednesday, Sam Allardyce has a full squad to pick from, with the exception of perma-crock Guy Demel.
Rovers come in to the game off the back of a 2-1 win away to Nottingham Forest. That was only their second win since the start of January. In their 9 league games in 2012, they have won 2, lost 3 and drawn 4.
Man to watch: El-Hadji Diouf : Almost nailed on that he will score against the club that rejected him in the summer.

Would play Lansbury instead of Collison.

Re: West Ham United Vs Doncaster Rovers: Match Thread
Stick with 4-3-3, seems to work better for us. Whenever we've gone 4-4-2 this season we've looked largely poor.
Collison and/or Lansbury back in. Faubert out. I suspect it'll be Vaz Te/Cole/Collison front 3, Nolan/Noble/Lansbury midfield.

Re: West Ham United Vs Doncaster Rovers: Match Thread
I was about to say: "what does Baldock have to do to get into the team?"
Then I realised the answer is score, which he hasn't done.
Big question is who starts up top, it's a tough one.
