We will soon loose Danny Allen unless Fev will extend his loan but Kesik is now on board for the season (so I understand) and Fawcett and Edwards are working their way back to fitness. Osbourne, Henry and Johnson didn't play today so yes, the future does look bright.

I hope we can extend his loan for a further period, and looking at Fev's results there does not appear an urgency for him to rush back there.

Would also like to wish the York player a speedy recovery.

Delighted with the result today for you supporters,Carl Hall and Tony Miller;the pair of them did a magnificent job at the most difficult of times and remained loyal to the club.
I hope it is the start of several victories and encouraging displays.

Carl had a big grin today at the end of the match a bit different to the look he had last wednesday after the Blackpool match.

Great stuff today from all the lads!!!

Fully deserved the win today against a lacklustre York. If we can play like this every week we wont be far out at the end of the season.Also just like to say I can see the difference already in the side with the new backroom staff that are on board.Well done to everyone!

Was talking to Pete Bell when I was on my way round to the Restaurant after the game, and he said that if we let this team build as they have been, then they could quite literally have the world at their feet. He says that they are better as a team now than they were in January, and are always willing to learn.

Lets hope that this is the case.

One thing thats impressed me Rob is that even after 20 odd consecutive defeats the heads have never dropped.They came out today and wanted it and ended up winning. Will be a massive boost for the lads today.

6 letters explain today. DESIRE. I knew we were going to win from the moment the first hit went in.

Well done to all the lads this afternoon an excellent and committed performance from 1-17 and all the backroom staff. Great performance from Shaun Leaf & what a tackle, good to see Ben Collins get over his mistake early in the game and then pose a threat for 70 mins.

Hope the York player is nt out too long, I would nt like Jamie Bovill near the back of my leg.

On a slightly different note, I've taken a couple of hours out from sorting the photos out from today, and have watched the Another Bloody Sunday DVD I have. Its seeing the likes of Tom Morton and Stuart Piper and their associates striving to save the club during those times that make me happy to have a club to support, and seeing Tom at the game today with so many former players and staff from the 70's, 80's, 90's and onwards also present reminds me of this.

Its a shame the likes of Kevin Parkhouse, Mark Roache and St. John Ellis aren't here to support the club through these times, their desire to succeed, (especially in the case of Singe) would have been a great support to Carl, Ray, Adam and everyone else who is involved in the running of the club.

I'm off to find the Grand Final DVD now.. I'm in that sort of mood.

Great stuff from the lads today, they showed lots of pride and passion
and plenty of skill too.

Entertaining game from a Dons supporters point of view (don't think the York mob
would've seen it that way ), lots of big hits, good running, good
passing, great kick and chase, bags of commitment.

I really hope this is a corner turned .

My favourite moment... ...I think it was probably pinching the ball out of their
scrum then running on to score. Don't see that too often these days - Magic !!

Tough game on Friday, I won't be there unfortunately (I'm working late) but I will be
there on Monday.

I don't care what anybody says about Doncaster RLFC. This club is worth sticking by
just for days like today and hopefully we will enjoy more 'todays' as the season progresses.

Well done Donny !!

COME ON YOU DONS!!!
