DRFC Saunders facing selection headache

Doncaster Rovers boss Dean Saunders could face a selection headache for the FA Cup trip to Oldham Athletic on Saturday.

Striker Billy Paynter was forced to miss the game with Oldham in League One on Tuesday night after picking up a hamstring injury.

Midfielder Martin Woods is a doubt after picking up a thigh injury in the first half hour on Tuesday night.

Saunders will be without two players through suspension.

Tuesday`s match winner David Cotterill picked up his fifth yellow card of the season and he will serve an automatic one-match suspension.

Iain Hume was sent off in the game with Oldham after receiving two yellow cards and he will also miss the game on Saturday.

One good bit of news was the return of defender Jamie McCombe.

McCombe returned on the bench after recovering from the back injury that has kept him out since the beginning of October.
