The intent was there.
That's as near as it got.
And for those that don't know a pun when they see one ...... in tent.

Club Doncaster appear only to want to put a minimum amount of money in to the rugby club

That same statement is being put out on on some Rovers site in relation to the funding of the football team. Is there a case to be made that it's not the amount provided but how it's spent?

It could be that or did Craig Harrison offer us some better players but the budget Club Doncaster provided the Dons with wasn't big enough to allow them to sign these players?

Could well be Geoff, there is a lot of talk about sustainability being banded about. I know not everyone is in favour of DR but at times it will provide us IMO with that bit of quality that can help.

Lets just hope for the best and that includes getting back the injured and keeping them fit and healthy.

Agreed moonlight, I have said many times I don't like dual reg, but at the moment without it......?

Could be worse, at least we're not rhinos fans

It got worse for them last night.
How can a treble winning side go down to the
level they're at, at the moment?

Not bothered about Leeds or their fans , we seem to have learned nothing from the last 2 weeks feel a bit sorry for GT , what else can he say.

I recall from a meeting before the end of the 2015 season that Gavin Baldwin said the club had a contingency of two budgets,one for if we stayed up and one for if we got relegated.Not that if we had stayed up the budget would have been much different but we certainly appear to have got a pitiful amount of investment.Hedges and Aizue being the exceptions we once again have got third grade players from the Harrison stable,other teams cast offs some of which were already carrying injuries and a few local lads to make it look like the local talent is being scooped up.After giving us false hope by getting a couple of decent DR players in previous games we are now back to academy players at least one of which today didn't look interested.Carl can make as many excuses as he likes particularly about injured players not being available but just like last year even though we have numbers in the squad the players are just not good enough.Although Thornton's hands were tied it was still him who has brought the players to the club. Whilst mentioning Thornton what about his emphasis on fitness and coming good in the last quarter of a game,something else said at a meeting,well that has certainly been rubbish.The team seemed totally inept near London's try line and at the play the ball they were up twice as fast as us.Yes they may have been offside at times but we could have done the same.Again this is down to the coach.As for Club Doncaster well it's a joke with the Rovers going down and the Dons sinking further into the depths.The crowd today was pitiful and will continue to go down and down with performances like todays but with some investment in quality players this would easily be reversed and the same could be said for the Rovers.Sadly this won't happen and for those of us who have invested our money in a season ticket, just like last season we have been lead up the garden path with lies and false promises of a strengthened competitive team.

Well after I stopped attending just after the start of last season as it was made clear my money wasn't as good as away fans money after 30 years of support and after stating the obvious that 90% of us knew that recruitment last season was a joke I am actually pleased to say that even after seeing a couple of old friends from the stands in the last few weeks who asked me if I would return I have no desire these days to do so and won't until people at the top leave or are replaced because it is obvious in spite of all the talk from them that nothing has been learnt from last season. I do wonder if they actually want the club to succeed at times
I spent the afternoon walking around Hatfield moor and by the sounds of it there were more people there than the keepmoat
