Doncaster Rovers manager Sean O'Driscoll has altered the size of their training pitch to prepare his side for Sunday's play-off final.

O'Driscoll told BBC Radio Sheffield his players have been working on a pitch with the same dimensions as Wembley:

"People are now appreciating what a big pitch it is and how important possession of the ball could be."

Rovers' preparations also include monitoring the likely weather conditions in London over the weekend.

"The long range forecast is 17 degrees.

"All those critical little non-essentials need to be looked at," O'Driscoll explained.

Meanwhile, Rovers defender Sam Hird says there is no room for sentiment when he faces his former club on Sunday.

The Doncaster-born centre-half began his career at Leeds United but he told BBC Radio Sheffield there will be no split loyalties:

"I was there since I was eleven. I came to Doncaster about a year-and-a-half ago and this is where I want to be and this is who I want to do well with."
