Better not say what I think about the intervening years since that statement was made.


Thanks Gary, put it down to old age. I will be re-visiting this article at season close and with a little more I suspect.

If we have a board of wealthy directors they need to make sure that we get promoted out of League One this season & if the new restructure proposals go through they need to sign players & a provide a team that can make a serious attempt to finish in the top 6 of the Championship.


Lots of clubs are gambling on a return to the Championship this season with Barrow ,Keighley and Rochdale spending big.
We signed a large squad as we had complaints about DR , for the first half of the season we were very competitive however losing players to injury , covid and players leaving has not helped by the looks of things.

Rumour has it Gary Thornton was sacked at Hunslet as the board and fans thought they should have been in the top two with the squad and money given to him.

It amazes me how people who don't contribute to the club financially in anyway try telling others how to spend their money.
Terry Bramall and his co directors have taken the club and put it on a safe financial footing.
It is the same people on here and at the Rovers calling them out because they have not thrown the kitchen sink into getting promotion.
Surely after the last 18 months its better to get your finances back in order, than go out on a spending spree where nothing is guaranteed.

Lets wait and see what happens come the end of the season because I'm sure that for some teams the death knell will toll.

I think the few fans who come on here are concerned with on the field performances of late & communication.

The Club Doncaster bashes are ex fans who have an axe to grind .

Genuine question ... what group of people does this refer to?

Some people who comment have not seen the Dons in years yet still choose to throw in cheap snide comments when the team performs badly.

Look on the Dons supports facebook page to see how many people comment when we have a good win and how many moan when we lose.

I know we have not been great as of late but we are still in third place given our last few results.

I appreciate people have their own opinion, but it seems to be the same old story of bash the club because we fail to throw pots of money into a sport that generates crowds of what would be lucky to fill most Premier league stadiums over its three pro divisions combined.

If aimed at me - I have given money to the club this year when I have paid to stream matches - thus by your logic I am fully entitled to my opinion.

Even if I didnt give money to the club I am entitled to my opinion its called free speech we are lucky to have it and I choose to exercise my right to it.
