HT Dons 6 Newcastle 18

FT Dons 18 Newcastle 19

Poor game management all the match.
Our tries were down to the effort of one guy and a fortunate bounce.
That game whether we deserved it was down to a drop goal and we had the first easy chance ... but the kicker did not stand back a little more sensibly and it was charged down.
They regathered and went 60/70m and then showed us exactly how to take a field goal.
Gutting ... but we deserved NOTHING!.
And that is what we got.

I hate to think what the crowd will be vs the Eagles.
I wasn't gonna go anyway, but this will dissuade a few others.
We are NOT a properly organised team and there was one bloke sitting all alone in the opposite stand, a Billy-no-mates.
No prizes for guessing his identity..
Bizarre coaching!!

I ain't gonna figure until Rangi appears ... good luck Rangi.
What a shambles!
Played at the Keepmoat a probable 2 points, played away we got zero.
Any sympathy?
Thought not.

The bookies RL assessors have suggested for many years that home advantage is worth an additional 4 to 6 points in the vast majority of games.

For me, two things have assisted Newcastle in their victory today ...

1. A neutral venue
2. Giving them a 12-point start

Playing catch up again against Thunder was like asking Lightning to strike twice!

At least we have cemented our 7th place.
It really is hard to believe.
But the happy clappers will get behind the lads .. so everything is rosey in the garden.

Not a happy clapper SO but what's your alternative?

Winning!
We have lost half our games FCS!
Get a proper coach!

Also better people running the club.
Absolute madness to play our home games away.

Just no excuse.
We've had this pitch thing for the last 5-6 years or more, anyone with any sense would get all this sorted before season starts
as they know its going to happen.
we are the only club that have to play 2 or is it 3 games away more than anyone else.

the question of where we play Rangi has just become irrelevant
there are no runners for Beryl, Watson or Jez and there won't be any for R.C. either. The sight of Litten running round in circles looking for a pass and then having to kick to touch is enough to make a grown man cry.

Newcastle took the ball in, basic rugby, even their halfs did it.
No 7 was stand out for them ... they have just got him from Coventry.
We could not cope and we are ordinary.
It is not the players ..they are fine ... it is the set up.
Lazy, lazy, lazy, disorganised ... hoping for Boas to make a break type crap!
He didn't today ...

Anyway pretty soon I may be rid of it all ... making other arrangements for my spare time.
If they aren't promoted that is it, I have better things to do at my age.
