Probably the low point of following City. Donny away in 97/98. They were miles adrift at the bottom of D4 but naturally they beat us.
You're right on all counts. It was a Friday night, It was away. It was on Sky and it was a nil - nil draw. I didn't have Sky so I got someone to record it for me. Yes, it was so long ago it was done on a video recorder. The bloke who did it gave me the tape and said, "Your lot bored the pants off me on Friday. Dreadful." I watched the game. He was right.
Proper ****ing tinpot, Mickey Mouse club who almost gave themselves an aneurysm trying to manufacture a rivalry with us between '03 and '05. Of course, we treated them like the insignificant small time twats they clearly are. Still, it would be nice for us to give them a proper rogering, using crunchy peanut butter as the lube. City by 2 falls and a submission, after the administering of a People's Elbow and a good old fashioned stiff arm.
It was a Monday, I tells ya. https://www.11v11.com/teams/doncaster-rovers/tab/opposingTeams/opposition/Hull City/ 8th September 2003.
Burke dropped to the bench... Is he carrying a knock? If so seems strange to have him on the bench and not someone 100% fit, don't think his performances have warranted being dropped. Unless it's to counter a threat he sees in the Donny team Edit... I forgot about his nose opp
