Will Earnshaw Start Against Rovers?

The future of Forest striker Robert Earnshaw and his lack of games so far this season, has been the subject of much debate amongst fans.

Earnshaw has only made 12 appearances so far this campaign (most of them as sub) and although he’s been hampered through injury for much of it, he’s fighting fit now and seemingly raring to go.

Much has been made of the fact that manager Billy Davies and Earnshaw, apparently don’t get on. But, from what Billy Davies said at the Audience With…evening the other night, the only thing the manager takes exception to with Earnie, are his goal celebrations. So, according to the gaffer, there is no rift.

Many Forest fans think that last seasons top scorer, should be getting more time on the pitch and the latest Poll results back that up. The dream pairing upfront for most fans, would be a strikeforce of Earnshaw and Blackstock.

Today is probably one of the few occasions this season that the gaffer has been able to pick this combination, but will he do it?

In the latest Front Page Poll, we asked. Should Rob Earnshaw get a starting place against Donny? Here are the results.


Yes 63%
No 13%
Whatever Billy Davies decides is fine by me 24%
