I went, I saw, I came away utterly despondent.

Now I'm an optimistic type of bloke and can normally find
a silver lining in the darkest of clouds but today was ......
....well.....I'm lost for words. Where do we go from here ?

Take nothing away from Siddal. They deserved that win. They
did everything right. They looked after there no7 and once he
got the space he ran the show. They still made mistakes but
they made a lot less than us. They played with passion, they
played with heart, they played with pride in themselves and pride
in their shirt, they played for each other.

They were a lot better than us.

If the rumours are true and the coach has gone, then the fella who
replaces him has got a hell of a job in front of him.

Our squad, morale wise, is on the bones of its ar$e at the moment.
When we played Sheffield and Hull KR in the friendlies we showed that
we could play a bit but since then its been downhill very quickly. The lads
have not lost their talent or forgot how to play overnight. it must be down
to coaching.

I admit I was one of the 'give Miller a chance' brigade but I have changed my
mind. We need someone new with NO connection with the clubs past. Someone
brand new with no baggage.

Lets hope something gets sorted before its too late. icon_sad.gif

Bloody Nora, I've had to come on here to make sure the result is correct. What has happend to you lot in such a short space of time? Where has the passion gone from the club? I hope it can be turned around for you all.

The poor old faithful cannot really give you an answer.

3 hours later & still can't believe I've witnessed such garbage. 30+ years of supporting so I've seen some grim performances but today marks new depths. I'm sure no Donny fan expected an easy ride today but we were totally played off the park.

Well played Siddal, their number 7 looked more than capable of cutting it at Championship 1 level at least - why can't we pick up these kind of gems? Having said that, who would want to join our set up at present? Same could be said with the coach. Didn't I remember reading that things would be different when TM had a full pre-season with his own players? Injuries haven't helped but I'm struggling to see any light at the end of a very dark tunnel. One-man rugby is outdated and will never work.

I gave up with away matches a while ago so I've yet to see Donny score a competitive point this season.

I'm starting to think that the RFL must be regretting their decision to let Donny continue this season. Perhaps it would have been better to have let the club die a natural death instead of serving up such tripe.

Well done Siddal , sorry we couldnt contribute to the game !'"


Agreed. We are a one-man team in terms of creativity ... no Grant Edwards, nothing happening!

Quote: GeoffRoebuck "This must rank as the worst defeat in the clubs 59 years history and I can tell you I have witnessed a lot of defeats throughout the last 48 years'"


It's certainly got to be up there in terms of the (nearly) thirty years that I've been watching on a regular basis.

It may not quite be the worst performance (I did consider 0-72 at home to Fax) but in terms of the current situation at the Club, the current Coaching set-up, the lack of supporters (I could go on) this could turn out to be quite a fatal result!

As I said to Carl Hall after the match, collectively we have NO CHANCE of getting the stay-aways and floating supporters back when they see results like todays.

Another nail in the coffin ... sadly I feel it is almost securely closed!

Quote: Stand-Offish "This must rate as a low point in the club's history...I forecast a Siddal win , but I didn't think that they would nil us.
I would suggest that this is the worst side since the Sunday Bloody Sunday years and that even worse than that we ought to pack it all in.....seriously!
All the talk about 'does Doncaster want rugby league?' is bolloxs...we don't want this kind of rugby league.
The crowds will be circa 200 (if that)....what is the point?
The income will be negligible.
I am truly glad that I did not buy a season ticket and I can't see the club lasting the season.
Feel free to have a go at me ...but that's the way I see it.'"


Low point ... agreed.
Worst side ... quite possibly.
Does Doncaster want RL ... clearly no!
Does it want this kind of RL ... why would it?
Crowds circa 200 ... inevitably and less and less point!
Season ticket ... not many did.
Have a go ... no one could, you are only speaking the truth.

Quote: rugbyman "That display from us was disgusting, we seem to have deteriorated as the more games we play, and sorry if it upsets people but well done Siddal you well and truly deserved the win, our team apart from 2 or 3 players need to look at 1) are we good enough to play at this level 2) is the coaching good enough, after the last two weeks i don't think so, today Siddal totally outplayed us, there no 7 bossed the game from start to finish, we were supposed to be the team who play at the higher level, totally embarrassed on today`s performance for us the fans.

We could say last week was a bad week, well what was the reason today.'"


I agree, well done Siddal better than us in absolutely every department today. Fitter, faster, more organised, more enthusiastic and sadly apparently better coached.

I am ashamed of that result and you are correct, on that showing very few players who pulled on the Doncaster shirt today look up to playing at Championship One level.

Quote: rugbyman "Hopefully it is not Mr Leaf but there have been rumours.'"


Seemed very disillusioned upstairs afterwards, saying "what are we getting right here"? To which I replied " nothing it would seem!"

Performances like today make it incredibly hard for us.

Not only have we no chance of getting the stay away and floating supporters back on-board
Its going to be a hell of a job persuading the faithful to stay on-board after today's disaster.

Whilst Siddal deserved their win, and I was delighted for them, I genuinely felt sorry for Doncaster today,

Hope things pick up,
