Another excellent servant who deserves our thanks and best wishes.

Certainly feels like the end of an era with the likes of Pete Green and now Craig Lawton gone.

But we will have to cut our cloth accordingly for next season. Match terms only and trade and play at the level that we are realistically at with attendances as they will likely be.

Yes, I don't get this one. He hasn't signed for anyone else but apparently won't turn out for us! icon_confused.gif

I understand that people are disgruntled with recent events but if we want semi-professional RL to continue in Doncaster we are probably all going to have to pull together and get behind the Club in whatever guise it continues.

I think a lot of people are now getting fed up with not knowing what is happening.This does not auger well for the future support of the club we are becoming like MUSHROOMS kept in the dark and being fed manure.
I am another that has become very dispirited and have decided to give tomorrow a miss.Hope things look up for the future

I also can understand some peoples feelings, but there does seem to maybe be some light at the end of the tunnel, the administrators are the ones who are pulling all the strings.

Hopefully there will be some good news for the fans before the last game of the season against Gateshead.

My self and Glyn (Father in Law ) have discussed the situation. We have decided to give it a miss until the club is in safe hands, being run properly and with a professional air about it.In other words install some much needed confidence to the Doncaster Sporting Public. The situation is heartbreaking but I really see no light at the end of the tunnel. Good wishes to all concerned.

Quote: weighman "According to the other site Josh Weedon has signed for Hunslet, it was transfer deadline for Championship 1 sides yesterday.

Thanks Josh for your efforts this season.'"


He was outstanding at Leigh, a couple of weeks ago.

I sense a little despair, I would think most Dons have got used to it a little by now, over my 20 or so years I have felt it on many occassions.

Its ok for fans to take out their frustration with the management and those currently running of the club.

But we should nt forget that they ll still be 17 men out there tomorrow, and remember it won t be much fun for them either if they are on the back end of an hiding and no one can be bothered to show for them.

So come on you Dons, lets get this season over with and hopefully dust ourselves off again and get stuck in next year.

Well so much for talk of winning at least one game.....and so much for talk of keeping what players we have together and having some sort of a decent team for next year.
I thought we caved in a little easily during the Barrow game.....what we know now...they knew then......so now't to play for really after an attempt by some players early doors to make their last game a winning one.
I did think that Weeden was very quiet in the Barrow game after his heroics at Leigh.
And so all is revealed in typical Donny style..........we find out before they tell us.....champion.
What will be the crowd tomorrow?
There will be season ticket holders now who won't bother......income will be next to nil.....the only income will be from Fev fans who will be able to come down here and watch a totally one-sided game.
I will be there......but the day is more about having a drink or two now than any chance of watching some decent competitive rugby.........I certainly would not go and pay.
Congrats to all concerned for fooking our club up..

I look forward to better times to come.

Its breaking my heart, but i have decided not to attend tomorow as a Donny lad living in Huddersfield I have been paying to watch two teams a week where fixtures have permitted, its beeen agony and extasy watching The DONS and The GIANTS, we are going to Wemberly so money is tight,
I have made this decision after hearing of latest departures, tomorow will be third game i have missed and wont be at tolouse to Loose, will be at last home game to say possibly good bye. But thats only if the club go under. icon_sad.gif

Unless I am extremely wide of the mark, there looks likely to be only one serious bid to take the Club forward and that is by no means certain to succeed. The RFL will have to be convinced before a licence is awarded for next season.

As painful as what is happening at the moment is, if we want to have RL in Doncaster next season we are going to have to get behind any seroius bidder.

As for tomorrow, we may well get another beating but to be honest the players that remain deserve our support. Lets face it most of them are playing at least a division above where we would logically have wanted to introduce them.

But ... they are still going out and giving it a go. If they're not good enough so be it but we have no alternative currently and they deserve our support for being prepared to turn out in very difficult circumstances.

Come On You Dons!

Say what you mean and mean what you say because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.:



Good luck to Craig and Josh.Both players have my respect for hanging in so long and giving there all.
Will be there tomorrow giving the lads my support as I have for the last 48 years through thick and thin but at least we are seeing a side of lads playing their hearts out and a big thanks for TM in staying the course.

She carries on through it all...... She's a Waterfall:



Well a crowd of 644 and 2/3 of those were from Fev and that's a conservative estimate!
I got the feeling that todays game was the last time a fev team would play pro-rl in Donny! Sad.
Directors and officials gone. Players gone and most of the fans gone. I'll doff my cap to the remaining few stoicly seeing out the season to the bitter end.

If you see the grim reaper - tell him to p1zz off! Hope you see a resurection!
