as per usual, not picking the best man for the job but the one who wants less money,
Club doncaster stinks, we were doing all right until Carl sold to them.
Its all about NOT spending money, no players bonuses for winning, that tells its own story.
No MOTM prize money, so no ones going to bust a gut, everyone would be if bonuses and a MOTM prize was on offer.
They have ruined the club in less than a season.

Those are some interesting statements Onedon, are they from a reliable source? if they are true then then its pretty damming for the side.

Maybe something our SLO could clear up with the owners at the meeting they are having next week.

Disagree slightly there OD that players won't bust a gut without prize money being available tho I agree a decent club will add those little sweeteners. Sad fact is some of the squad just aren't good enough at this level and it goes right back to recruitment. Some will improve and some are at their limit. What's sad is our better players will probably leave at the end of the season......then what??? :( :DEPRESSED:

Ive just watched carl's in the dugout speech and how surprising was it that after the THIS IS IT massive game cmon lets get behind the boys we need you ramble last week he totally ignored the 1st question asked about last sundays game? i quite like carl and admit he has done alot of good things for our club but it seems the passion is waning and now until the end of the season its just a case of him begging for bigger crowds to line the pockets of the money men at club doncaster! It might be me being cynical but i care about the dons and feel we have lost our identity. Even some of our happy clapping fans can see the club is crumbling big style! COYD

You must have watched a different one to me because I saw a lot of pride, passion and hurt. But I guess we all see things differently.

Why didnt he address last weeks game which he billed as massive and this is it? the 7 or 8 mins in the dugout talk just seems to be very repetitive with the soft voice feeling sorry for ourselves act, this may come across very harsh from me but i can see my club dying on his booty, were heading for a winless season and with the likes of cookes exit, the waterman fiasco and now dunn going leaving + the shambles of dr we have become a joke! from 4th to this its just not acceptable

Not saying it is leafy, just saying I thought Carl showed passion, when you said you thought it was waning

Im pretty sure he has to show passion and hurt for the 7 min interview, the fight and passion between the players and everyone involved at the club went along time ago lets face facts, it kills me saying things like this but if anyone of us performed like this at our workplace we would be long gone

I think the bottom line for us this season is that the squad simply isn't good enough to compete at this level. No matter how hard they try, they're almost certainly going to come out second best. If we're going to win a game this season, I'd guess it'll be because our opponents have an off day and we play out of our skin.

It must be really hard for the players to keep going in such difficult circumstances. For various reasons, we've never had a settled side this season and I'm sure that's not helped either.

It's been mentioned that no one had set up a thread for this weekend's Batley game. I think we, as supporters, are still trying to recover from last weekend's Whitehaven game as it knocked the stuffing out of us. It was yet another piece of evidence to show how far we've fallen behind the rest of the teams in this league.

One of the questions that keeps coming back to haunt me this week is, "If we've had the biggest ever playing budget this season, why haven't we had the best team we've ever had?"
