| Quote One of the things that does annoy me is the marketing hype that comes out on the Dons' website through the tweets such as this: THIS IS IT! Bumper crowd expected for the Whitehaven clash!
I consider this to be an insult to people's intelligence. Yes, we need to get behind the team, but this makes it sound like a cup semi-final with glory waiting if we win. It's not. It's the first of the last battles for survival. On what basis is a bumper crowd expected? Do the club really think anyone other than the loyal few will turn up?

Totally Agree----to talk of this weekends game being up there with the Batley Promotion game is Absurd.

| Its a very sad state of affairs and the recruitment was very poor during the off season and if we look back to the previous year we got very lucky with Dual Reg...look at how many games people like Whiting and Kay won us that pushed us up to the lofty heights.
I agree some of the signings this year are solid but the damage is done and morale is shot across the side, it seems once a team gets 12 points up on us, heads go and we forget how to play. I have faith that GT and PG can turn us into a decent side again but its not going to be instant and due to the late recognition by "Club Doncaster" that we were up to our necks in it it looks like this season could be a very costly one.
I cannot see a big crowd on Sunday sadly as many fans feel let down by the club and its management (I am one of them) Hopefully we can pull of a win tho and with the likes of Waller back and hopefully Waterman we have some match winners available.
There has been some massive mismanagement at the club this year.... who is accountable for it, its likely we'll never know it cost Paul Cooke his job but who was responsible for the close season acquisitions and policy of youth. I am not sure it was PC as quite a few players didnt stay around long enough to even pull on a shirt....as I said its likely we'll never know....hopefully GT is strong enough to sign the players he wants and feels will make us a better side.

| Week in week out the fans get behind the team , yet we are served up the same poor performances , fans can only take so much before they say enough is enough, as for sammut in signing him would have taken us over the salery cap and we would not have been able to have any more loan players or DR players , some of u would say that we don't need loan or DR players quite rightly , so would it have been worth taking a chance or struggle to put a team out out if we got a load of injuries

| How do you know it would have taken us over the salary cap?
Do you know what we have spent and what he would have cost.
So has Workington gone over theirs then.?

| Since when do i question every post you put on here.
I thought that's what this place was for to put your views and ask questions.
You should have explained in your post where you got your information from then, then we wouldn't
ask the question.
So Baldwin and carl have said that actually signing Sammut would have taken us over the salary cap,
this week it only came out on Monday as far as i know.
Sorry another question
I wouldn't trust Baldwin as far as i could throw him.
You should be interested in Workington because if they finish above us we are down,
like i am interested in Batley and Whitehaven as well.

To be fair, I don't think anyone was having a dig, Titanic. None of us were aware of the salary cap implications with the Jarrod Sammut situation. Thanks for filling us in on the details.

If you don't trust Baldwin I would hate to see who you trusted.
