I know we are carrying a lot of injuries but as the game went on I hoped we could hold out for a point or nick a win. Knew if we conceded late on it would be a big ask to get back into it.

First real test for the Coach as he’s going to have to find a way with a lot of key players out.

Why what were you watching Garner and Telford were awful, the goal was shocking defending !
I'm not denying it was a poor performance, but there's plenty of reasons why we are up against it at the moment. Digging individuals out isn't going to help. 4th in the league, first injury crisis in recent memory. People need to calm down.
Popular side since '03.

Tough week, culminating in a tough game in slippery conditions, we had a strong spell in the second half, just didn’t get the rub of the green, we move on. Farman made a howler against Chelsea, but some on here seem to pick out Wyll? Not much he could do about the volley.

I want him to play in his superman suit next game as some of them dives are deserving of the suit. Only saying like.

Think Doncaster were second worst team this season to Newport, we were pathetic all over the pitch. FFS as I’ve stated on a topic post pre season, we are SHIT upfront.

Dom Telford is an absolute disgrace of a footballer, his kit must never need cleaning he certainly doesn’t sweat in it. Absolute fraud of a player, we basically kick off a man down when he starts.

Digging them out sorry but when I see Sam Foley chasing Everything at nearly 38 ,and Garner and Telford strolling about and pulling out of tackles that's just not acceptable at any level, our Midfield and defence needed the forwards tonight and the other two weren't much better they let them down and themselves!

Think there's gonna be alot more of the B team lads being called up as we are light absolutely all over the park, also so timid in front of goal, could give Garner and Telford 15 yards of space to place a ball and they would still try and walk it in..... gonna be a very long next few weeks and 2 very big home games coming up which should see how we hold up.

Fine margins this league but agree you’ve got to score to win we posed no threat whatsoever. Thought the defence held out as best they could but it always looked like it would be Donny that secure the points. As an aside I’ve never seen so many of our players lose their feet as tonight very strange.

Service was as weak as Russian tennis player without steroids but blame the forwards young man.

Would give Dallas a start on Saturday just to see what he can do, can’t do any worse than Telford surely
Really struggling in the middle of the park; missing Canavan and Spence massively but there’s no other options really is there so just have to get on with it. Least we aren’t bottom 4 and worrying about this, just have to get through the next few weeks, keep our heads and try and battle to a few points

People saying it will be a tough FEW weeks without Farman, Canavan & Gotts none of them will play this month, and getting the B team players in will not help because we don`t have any, Weston & Tiensia were on the bench tonight & Ogungbo & Barnes haven`t kicked a ball all season, the team to play v Fleetwood next week will be full of 1st teamers.
