Amended the Thread to cover Craig who has gone to Oldham .


Thanks Craig for all you have done for the Dons over the years.

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!

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 know how you feel Askern Lad but if there is to be a semi pro club in Donny ,we need to stick together.


Come on You Dons

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.

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.
