But you don't lose by many, even against SL sides so a win can't be very far away.

I agree, some people (if they haven't already) will just get fed up of the financial rollercoaster-ride.

That was before they got Handforth to be fair.

Just so you know Halifax operate on a pay as you play system but do offer generous win bonus.

Excuse my ignorance as I really don't know but how come your club is offloading players all of a sudden? I thought you had yoursleves on an even keel again now? Was your chairman not even speaking about applying for SL??

the club seems to have lost its way, this started in march when it started losing its better scholarship players, now first team team players , hard times ahead and applying for super league only a dream

I think you can ask any of our supporters and we'll agree.

This statement swayed my opinion more than the signing of Handforth to be honest.

Batley Bulldogs are pleased to announce that after lengthy discussions last night (Monday) Karl Harrison will stay on as coach until the end of the season.

Why am I not in the least surprised this is happening? We've been inept and dull for 90 % of the season. You can't expect people to watch tosh week in and week out and I really do envy the diehards, but the standard of rugby we have had dished up to us this season has been enough to cure even the most hardened insomniac. It would turn me to drink if only they sold owt decent enough at the Keepmoat



Yet another sad chapter in the book of Doncaster RLFC

I believe a lot of this started last season when we paid for glory but have suffered long term.Players have and will always jump ship when it is getting battered and income is low.Remember Craig Weston etc.It is a fact of life with struggling clubs

Yeah, I remember Craig Weston, he was still here for weeks after many other high-salaried players had gone and as the senior man was asked by the remaining players to talk to the then Coach about team selection / tactics etc. The Chairman backed the Coach (not surprisingly) over the disagreement and Weston was out (although by then I'd be surprised if he wasn't relieved).

And this thread seems so long ago I bet: viewtopic.php?t=402259 Note that I did refer to bringing round the buckets then! A solvency practitioner that I know said that you can always tell when a company is about to crumble when they errect a flagpole outside HQ. I think the equivalent in RL circles is a CC club talking about future entry to SL.

The Free Press makes for gloomy reading today.



But Miller is confident we can cause a surprise at Fev.
What surprise might that be then?

Just read thru this thread and it looks doom and gloom at Donny.Your team last season was great and it is so sad to see this happening.
Your team is steeped in history and im sure something or someone will step in and save the day.

I don't take any pleasure from the misfortune of Donny fans but I do take exception to having to put up with the hubris associated with your clubs leadership over so many years. Do tell me that you were one of the few who didn't fall for it hook line and sinker.

We're going for SL; oh no we're going insolvent; we're going for SL again, oh no we're going insolvent again; repeat ad infinitum.

Non of the true fans fell for it hook line and sinker.
There may have been a few "new" so called fans who fell for it,but they
were always going to be the ones who jump ship first.

Believe me what we have had to put up with over so many years has been
a dam-site harder than what you yourself have had to take
and we feel for the club a good deal more than you do--and
to be honest we don't need people like yourself stating the bleeding obvious.

What Fev have done to help The Dons will never be forgotten by the Donny fans.
What you have done is just dig the knife in that little bit deeper.

could,nt have put it better DRAGONFAN.ive been a fan since the late 60s,and boy we.ve seen the highs and lows.all i and im sure most of the diehards want is a stable club with a bit of success sod SL.and NO ninea*r*oiler i was,nt one of those who fell for the SLdream.for someone who takes no pleasure in others downfalls you do a damn good impersonnation.so sod off

featherstone Rovers are the most generous club in rl history, they started my amateur club Selby Warriors junior club section off by donating balls, when other local clubs with more money turned us down, they have bought us kit, subs coats and let us play games there. they even sponsor our race night. But if you go further back the super league ass wipes at bradford wont remember but we kept Bradford northern solvent in the 60s by giving them half a dozen players. The sad thing is 30 years after that Chris caisley said he didnt want his club THE BULLS mentioned in the same breath as featherstone. I love rovers but hate this spitefull game and what it has become

Lovely people Donny fans.

What do you expect?

In one post you appear to be gloating that you predicted that our Club would struggle and linking to facetious comments about bucket collections by supporters.

Later, you claim not to 'take any pleasure from the misfortune of Donny fans'.

Forgive us for;
a) Being confused about your intentions for posting
b) Being a little sensitive about the current situation at the Club.
