Quick word....



Accelerate

Whitehaven have conceded 100 points in their last 2 matches ... opportunity knocks.

And not scored any

We're a third of the way through the season there's still time to pull it round as in 2013 but it's still not good enough for some people, yes we haven't won yet but we still need to back the team all the way or where they going to get the confidence from to win while we stand around ripping them let's face it I'd just turn and tell the moaners to do 1 it's not doing the team any favours is it, they will read this crap

If someone from the club ever told a fan or fans to "do one" then I'd never attend a Dons match again.



Fans are entitled to voice an opinion, that is the whole point of this forum.



The club and fans do need to interact and work together though. Unfortunately some of the match day decision taken this year have left me feeling like the fans are seen as an hinderance to the club rather than an ally. We need more than just attending and watching from the stands to keep fans invested in supporting the club.



I know people who have gone from being die hard home and away fans, who stuck with the club through the clubs various financial difficulties and would normally watch whether the dons were winning or losing, who have now lost interested in even attending home matches. I feel that way too to some extent.

It's a tough job running a club like the Dons and they're never going to be able to please all of us all of the time but certain things annoy us that could quite easily be put right. If they're not put right, the fans start to feel detached from the club. A detached fan is much more likely not to attend games and give up on the club. Every fan is vital to this club and we can't afford to lose any.



The In The Dugout with Carl is a very good idea but the fact that no club representative is prepared to invest time by answering questions on here is very poor. If the club want the supporters to be more involved with the club generally, they can start by coming on here and addressing the issues and concerns raised. After all this is the main forum for Dons' supporters. We can't have a fans' forum at the Keepmoat every week but we can have a constant communication between the fans and club on here!!!



Communication is a key element in running any business. The Dons could help themselves a great deal if they improved in this area.

I've spoken to Carl about this subject last weekend, and he said that he won't come on himself, as the last time he was on here, he got very drunk one evening and decided to go off on one at some fans. I know the club are aware of what is said on here, but at the same time, I couldn't get an answer to whether or not someone would be prepared to come on here from the club in some capacity, but I feel that this could be due to the rather vocal posters on here who do not like the way that the club/Club Doncaster are running things.

Thanks for the update, Donny.



We do tend to split into two groups on here: People who support Club Doncaster and people who don't. Those of us who do support Club Doncaster end up trying to answer questions from those who don't support Club Doncaster when we can't answer them properly because we don't have enough knowledge of the internal workings of Club Doncaster. Answers from the club would be helpful although I appreciate that balance sheets and other sensitive information couldn't be revealed.



Issues such as supporters being allowed in the restaurant and car parking issues recently raised could be dealt with quite easily.



I think the club is missing an ideal opportunity to show itself up in a good light with supporters by not having a representative on here.

I've not heard the car parking one...

The Club as with the Rovers advertised for a SLO some weeks ago. Too my knowledge those posts have yet to be taken up and given Mr Halls views I am little surprised at that, who would want to be in the firing line on here trying to get across the clubs message. IMO the best person for the job is one of the posters with the views that maybe reflect the more strident poster. In other words if you feel so strongly about the way the club is being mis - managed then take your fight to the ones running the club.

From our experience last Wednesday evening the pair taking the money at the main car park should get a shift on. Collect the money get the line moving. its not a social occassion
