| The 'home' games against Newcastle and Whitehaven will be at Fev's ground ... got to give those poor buggers a chance.

| I know the pitch has to be re-surfaced , but surely there are other options closer to home.

| Athletics pitch ? Castle park ? Even armthorpe wellfair or rossington main would be options to keep us playing in Doncaster... surprised if there will be more than a couple of hundred at each game. It’s not like there key games either... the decisions this club continue to make are baffling

| The Athletics surface was un usable last time I saw it (admittedly a while ago). Previous years I have thought Armthorpe Welfare could be an option

| Unless the club organise transport, myself and my Wife will not be going.
This happened last season and I said then that if it happened again, that would be it for me.
No season tickets next season and there will be no further support from us. The club cannot be serious in thinking they can just do to the fans without repercussions.

| Well if Toronto can be allowed to play in blocks why can't Doncaster make an application to the RFL to be playing only away league games during this relaying period on the basis that Toronto are allowed to to make things easier.
I am not that bothered about seeing a few games at Fev, except I can't have a beer.
It's not that, it is the loss of much of the advantage.
No disadvantage to Whitehaven or Newcastle.
Instead of looking for other grounds Dons should looking to move fixtures.
No don't tell me ... it can't be done.
Whether the Rovers could fit that is the thing ... probably not.

| what makes it worse is iv'e just seen on website the fixture has even been moved by 5 weeks so why can't they do that to keep the games at Doncaster or as SO says
exchange for some away games would be more sensible, but these rules only apply to certain clubs.

| that only leaves me 3 available home games left to go to in the next 5 months
may as well have just paid on the gate only seen 3 games now so it will have cost me £10 a game
what a waste of time.

| This annual pilgrimage is one of the reasons we did not purchase season tickets. Fev will provide very good hospitality for the Club (wining and dining the CEO and the sponsors) and we will be told its an excellent venue blah blah blah. Two of our big home games are now away and with sod all advantage for the home team. It is getting beyond a joke and we will not be travelling for these games.
And they want us to believe that they are serious about promotion, abode of lollocks.

Yep makes no difference to Mr hall where we play.... donny rovers season starts on the 3rd of August. So are u telling me that 6 days earlier the pitch won’t be ready to use... load of S**T....
With everything that has gone off this season, watching the dons is become too tiresome... I’m at the point now where I’m seriously considering this to be my last season... I’m on holiday for the Oldham game so that leaves just 1 home game vs west wales between now and mid August. And they wonder why crowds are low..

I raised the issue of these two games being moved with someone with connections to the club at the Hunslet home game and was told that they would be played as normal because the surface work was now a bi annual event.
There have been numerous comments about seeking out Doncaster based venues but for my money if the CEO is happy we should all be happy.

| I am not going knee jerk about watching the Dons and it can't be easy to arrange things, but it can't be impossible.
Playing away for home fixtures is just NOT ON.
If the club can't get its head round that ... then?
It's just not joined up business.
But not to worry ... we are all moaning buggers and can't see the bigger picture.
Get behind the lads!!!!

| My thoughts on this ...
The fixtures are not released officially until viewed / agreed by the Clubs and Club Doncaster know pretty much when the pitch won't be available. With the agreement of opposition and the RFL, some fixture reversals would surely be possible thus allowing us to play all home matches at the Keepmoat Stadium?

Yep they must have known for some time the exact dates the pitch was out of commission. I'm surprised that the home game against Oldham has not fallen victim as well. Just a guess but I wonder if the Rovers and the potential playoff games have had a bearing.

| Rovers start the new season on the 3rd of August. Our game 6 days earlier has been moved. Rovers will have at least 1 friendly at home so struggling to see why that game has been moved ?

Its a fair point and yet again because of the lack of an explanation from the Club we are left guessing and surmising. Not ideal.

A chance they may not even be in the play offs now Peterborough won last night.
Got to win their last game now to stay in 6th.

| This is all because the Rovers take precedence I should imagine ...yet we are Club Doncaster so it should all be joined up.
Throwing away home advantage is stupid!
Would the Rovers do that?

| I presume the 'pitch repair' period cannot start (or be decided) until the Rovers have played their last home game which is why more advanced planning can't be made on this.
If the 'repair period' is later, it could start to impinge on Rovers pre-season friendly arrangements.
It then makes it difficult to plan Dons fixtures.
It really isn't ideal having to play away from the Keepmoat and less ideal still having to go out of town.
