    The travesty of the January manager of the month award, an open wound that still bleeds. Only a 12-0 win for City will heal it.

    Reckon full allocation. Couple of hours and sherbets in Thorne, match, then probably few more in Howden on the way home. Happy days, sadly just happy memories now.

    Hopefully, we can extend their losing run, it would certainly make a big difference gaining 3 points on them with their games in hand.

    If we win 30 played - 55 points & they would be 27 played 48 points

    If they win, we would be 30 played 52 points & they would be 27 played 51 points.

    This is a big game and no mistake.

    If the predicted rise in sea levels really happens then Doncaster will be a seaside resort.

    That should say England, rather than the UK, there's some in Scotland.

    This is a good shout. I think the hosts will be very nervous after their recent run. Probably scared at the prospect of facing us after the midweek demolition of Wigan. Fancy a comfortable win and assured performance. Confidence restored and the panic that seemed to be emerging in certain quarters has been put to one side. Promotion push properly back on track.

    I think that's a very optimistic synopsis! Hope you're right though...

    Have to say that I feel optimistic Plum. Just get the feeling that we're past the sticky patch. I know people will say that it's only Wigan, but the simple facts are that we weren't scoring because they goals had dried up for Wilks and KLP and perhaps less significantly for Josh. It's not like we've been hammered by anybody even in the poor run. Unlucky at times as well. We live in strange and dreary times but there's real cause for optimism. All we need in the fullness of time is to see the back of McCann and the Allams. :) I'd be even more optimistic were that the case.

    That's just not enough, it has to be a good point.
