Plenty about The Marauders though........

Expect a bumper crowd.

The match versus Whitehaven is Doncaster's best kept SECRET. .

There is plenty of other sports coverage, in fact all other sports are covered.
So what is so special about the reporting of the Dons that it can't be done?

Have you seen this week's Free Press???
The Rovers way down the pecking order??
The Rovers have a War and Peace section.
So I don't know where you are coming from.

The Rovers have always had more coverage, even when we were getting bigger crowds than they were. Not that many of there current supporters will even remember that that was the case!

I get the Free Press delivered every Thursday and I read it.

I am aware of the strike and yes I know there are match reports missing, but I am not talking about them.
I am talking about previews.
Look on page 82 and you will see a big preview of the Rovers next game against Cardiff.
And Ryan's surgery, as well as stats. and fixtures.
You will see nothing about the upcoming Whitehaven game.
Now this stuff from Rovers is probably sent in.
The Dons could presumably have done the same to advertise what is after all an important game, probably their last the way they are playing, to get some bums on seats.
That was my point.

all they want to do is get a paper published they not bothered about content when most of reporters are not working
