Cant understand why the club would not try to retain Mike Kelly.

A consistent performer before injuries, who we have now lost to a promotion rival.

A back rower that runs great lines, has good hands and solid defence, I cant see Mike wanting mega bucks ,can see this coming back to bite us later in the season.
May not be first choice but a good replacement and a local player.

Sell 1000 season tickets .............., the only game attendance were you will see that figure is against Bradford and they will bring most of that.

#challengedeclined is a most unfortunate manifestation if I might say.
What the heck is £60 to any proper supporter?
Why not #challengeaccepted?

I think the concept is brilliant Stand-offish , but I feel RL in Doncaster is dying a slow drawn out death.

Too many false promises and dashed expectations. I think you would struggle to get 1000 people through the gates even with free admission.

I have purchased my ticket and hope the 1000 is reached ,but in all honesty it wont happen.
I know the Rovers Club silver members get a free ticket which will push numbers up but how many will actually attend?

You have done your bit and that's all anyone can ask.
I mistakenly thought you were against buying the tickets.
But you are not.
Good man.

Re: Former players : Thu Nov 09, 2017 8:25 pm  
I don't know if you read the thread on me getting a £60 parking ticket ... and then Shaun Lockwood read it and has done his best to get that £60 refunded to me.
Well as soon as I get the refund, I am going to spend that £60 on another season ticket and make it a Christmas present to someone in the family.
So an act of kindness is gonna sell another season ticket.
Yes it looks a big ask to get 1000 sales.
But it has GOT to be actively tried.
The Keepmoat could be a rocking place for rugby ...

I don't see how we can't have a better season than last year and drag some fans back.

I had a complete change of heart a month or so ago, mainly inspired by Ray Green.
Gonna get behind the Dons this season coming and stop the moaning.

I thought you were gonna get one?
If so, would you hate yourself?

OK, so we will always be rattling around in a 15,000 seater stadium ... but 1000 has got to be better than 500.

Have decided to give the crew a chance.
Nobody knows how we will go, not me, not you.

Because that will be my question to all moaners.

'Have you bought the cheap,cheap,cheap season ticket that is hardly worth moaning about whatever the quality of rugby?'

Actually anyone who has bought a season ticket can moan as much as they like. They have contributed financially.
So if you want to keep moaning with credibility.
Let us know.
Which is it?

And also ... if we could get to 1000 ... I would buy another two tickets and give them to the first two paying adults that came through the turnstile behind me.
At the first league game at home.

Re: Former players : Fri Nov 10, 2017 12:28 am  
I have a friend who is a silver member for football who ain't a rugby goer so I've a free season in front of me but before mr club Doncaster responds I have gallantly bit the dust and handed over my 30 snerkles (even though I've kept another 20 aside for after xmas when the figures are announced), are you happy with that mr offish?
