Taylor looking for Rovers to stem losing run

The two clubs occupy the bottom two positions in the Championship table and Rovers are now only two games away from equalling a club record of 20 consecutive league games without a win.

“We just need to get a win under our belt and, if we do that this weekend, we can go above Reading,” said Naylor. “I am surprised that they are down there because last season, when I played against them for Leeds, they were unbeaten in about 20 games.

“They have lost a couple of players since but we know they will be fired up for this game and desperate to get a win.”

Manager Sean O’Driscoll, meanwhile, says confidence is currently a major problem in the Doncaster Rovers camp: “We were confident going into the first game but the three injuries we picked up in the first two games really knocked the stuffing out of everybody.”
