| We left the game a bit speechless.
How could we play so well against Sheffield then give this type of performance?
Gutted.
They just seemed to play the game faster in every department whilst we were flat footed. To be fair, Donny looked better than their position in the league suggests.
Can't understand how the officials missed the ball steal - especially when we had regained a bit of momentum. After that their heads went down.
Needs to be turned around fast or there is only one place we are going.

| Having had chance to see that 2-on-1 ball steal, thanks to Donny's vid, I just cannot believe the match officials didn't see it. It was absolutely blatant. No wonder our lads hesitated. And it came at such a crucial time too with Olly just having put us back in it at 18-12 and us putting pressure on the Dons line. It was a real game changer and put the Dons right back in control. This doesn't excuse our performance overall which was unacceptable but it sure as hell didn't help.

| Looking back, the only thing I can think that Leahy may have thought, is that Sanderson may have ripped the ball slightly before Liam Kay came in and joined the tackle, but judging by the reaction of the Cougars player, even that may be a very tight margin.

| Maybe, but it was just so obvious when I saw it on your vid. And if I remember rightly I think the ref pulled up one of our players (Gav Duffy I think...?) for a 2-on-1 steal earlier in the game which was far less blatant than the Donny one.

| Regardless of videos it is not a two on one ball steal until the ref says it is. We switched off and he was gone. Need to play what the ref does not what he should have .

| Can't really post much on this game as I wasn't there due to my little lad is now playing himself and obviously he comes first now. I have seen the highlights video thanks to Donny but nothing to shout about really and listening to what I've heard about the game it was terrible.
Yes we went on a winning streak but was that even anything to get excited about because in my opinion they were our winable games and no disrespect to Doncaster I honestly thought we would go there and win as well, if you look at our fixtures now all the way to the end of the season its a tough run of games. I have said this a few times to people in recent weeks, ok we might lose a game but I honestly think we cannot afford to lose two games on the bounce and especially if we don't manage to get the bonus point we will be left behind. I am praying we don't get relegated and no matter what anyone thinks its the last thing I want to see happen to us but I just cant change my opinion on this as I believe we are going down. I think we have the players and the quality to be a mid table team at the minute but for me our problem is leadership, it doesn't exist anymore. I even think we are past the point of bringing in a new coach now because we don't have time to start unsettling things even more now.
The comment about the players in cars and minibus, I aren't sure if this is true but I do know the board tried this last year with JD. Something along the lines of using both minibuses and JD to drive one of them to games, JD was furious this was even suggested and it never happened. If true this is a disgrace and a complete showup for our team and club. If true this is a step too far and if they can cut back to this then when are they willing to stop cutting back.
One other thing I have heard is that we have about 3-4 key players that are leaving or hanging their boots up at the end of the season so in my opinion these will be a big loss and how are these guys going to be replaced. How many of our boys are going to start jumping ship before the end of the season if relegation is looking like its going to happen because I know a lot of the lads won't go back down and play at that level and shouldn't because they are not championship one players.
WHAT A MESS!!!!!

| Well i was there yesterday and our players were on a big coach.
To those that dont go why come on here and say " i heard" Your just stiring s**t
Fans in general dont know what financial situation the club is in. But are we not better with a board of directors that try to keep the clubs finances in check rather than getting us in debt again then jumping ship.
If we go down then so be it or would you reather the club spend money it dosnt have and end up in administration again then start another season with a points a points deduction or even worse no club at all

| I just wondered about the coach comment and to be honest found it believable but still made the comment of IF TRUE, I was at the club and as I said in my last post it was put to our coach then about minibuses and even the coach driving one so thats why I commented because I wouldn't put anything past them.
I have had two meeting with gary fawcett in the last couple of weeks and I aren't going to disclose the finer details unless I feel I need to but everyone keeps on going about the cash flow problems of the club and this has been going on for the last 3-4 years. Our chairman stated at a Q&A last year I think it was that we were making small weekly profits and I can confirm as I have heard it from the horses mouth that the club is still doing well and making weekly profits. The club has no staff now at all apart from a cleaner, a lady that is in charge of the bars, players and coach and not forgetting gary fawcett who is chairman, accounts, sales, commercial and so on and so on. Everyone else at the club is paid by the foundation or your sporting chance. We haven't had a great deal of winning pay to pay so how can the club still be struggling and believe me I know what I am talking about.
The comment on if we go down then so be it, well if we go down you might as well close the gates for good because it will be the final nail in the coffin in my eyes for our once great club. You only have to look at our season tickets sales this year compared to last years and also see our attendances because if it hadn't been for some of the away supprteres this season so far our attendances would be far less.
It really is showing how much we are relying on away support.
