Jordan Gibson is three games from Wembley, and anxious to let his Doncaster Rovers team-mates know what it feels like to play there.

Rovers face Fleetwood Town in Tuesday's Football League Trophy last-16 tie.

It will not be a game which captures much attention, but a day out at Wembley will if Doncaster can get there, and having played there for Carlisle United in the 2023 League Two play-off final, Gibson is keen to be part of that.

"At the group stage there's not many fans there and it can be quite a low atmosphere," admits the winger. "But the gaffer's always put it into us from day one that it's a chance to go to Wembley and win a trophy.

“Other clubs, when they progress to the knockouts, I think they realise it's a cup you can win.

“There's only a few games left to get to Wembley and we're set on doing that.

"There's not many players that have played at Wembley in the group, and a few have experienced it and done well.

"I've been there with Carlisle United in the play-offs.

“It's in the back of your mind all the time that you want to play at Wembley because not many people do it and you don't know if you're going to do it again."

Manager Grant McCann has been there too.

"I've played in that final twice as a player and there's nothing better," he says. "There's no better feeling than coming out of Wembley in front of 20, 30, 40,000 of your own spectators.

“I've won one and I've lost one. I scored in the one I lost against Luton – probably the best goal Wembley's ever seen, to be honest.

“It's a really special day at Wembley. But we're miles away.”
