Four new signings given Doncaster debut

Doncaster Rovers have given debuts to four summer signings as they begin their Championship campaign against Blackpool at the Keepmoat Stadium.

Richie Wellens, Mark Duffy, Bongali Khumalo and former Chelsea goalkeeper Ross Turnbull are all in the starting lineup for Paul Dickov's first match in charge.

However, Harry Forrester misses out through injury, while Spanish midfielder Marc De Val is likely to be out for some time with a knee problem.

Blackpool manager Paul Ince starts with new additions, as Bobby Grant, Steven Davies and Gary Mackenzie all are in the lineup for the visitors.

Michael Chopra and full-back Jack Robinson, who joined the Tangerines on loan from Liverpool, are among the substitutes.

Doncaster: Turnbull; Quinn, Jones, Khumalo, Husband; Wellens, Furman, Cotterill, Coppinger; Duffy, Brown

Blackpool: Gilks; Broadfoot, Cathcart, MacKenzie, Harris; Osbourne, Ferguson, Angel, Grant; Ince, Davies
