Somewhere in Bonny Donny (Twinned with Krakatoa in 1883).

The 'home' games against Newcastle and Whitehaven will be at Fev's ground ... got to give those poor buggers a chance.

I know the pitch has to be re-surfaced , but surely there are other options closer to home.

Athletics pitch ? Castle park ? Even armthorpe wellfair or rossington main would be options to keep us playing in Doncaster... surprised if there will be more than a couple of hundred at each game. It’s not like there key games either... the decisions this club continue to make are baffling

The Athletics surface was un usable last time I saw it (admittedly a while ago). Previous years I have thought Armthorpe Welfare could be an option

Unless the club organise transport, myself and my Wife will not be going.
This happened last season and I said then that if it happened again, that would be it for me.
No season tickets next season and there will be no further support from us. The club cannot be serious in thinking they can just do to the fans without repercussions.

Well if Toronto can be allowed to play in blocks why can't Doncaster make an application to the RFL to be playing only away league games during this relaying period on the basis that Toronto are allowed to to make things easier.
I am not that bothered about seeing a few games at Fev, except I can't have a beer.
It's not that, it is the loss of much of the advantage.
No disadvantage to Whitehaven or Newcastle.
Instead of looking for other grounds Dons should looking to move fixtures.
No don't tell me ... it can't be done.
Whether the Rovers could fit that is the thing ... probably not.

you've got to be joking thats me done with them.
No advantage to team or fans at all.
should be refunded our money for the 2 games absolutely pathetic.
no more season tickets for me and probably not go again at all!

what makes it worse is iv'e just seen on website the fixture has even been moved by 5 weeks so why can't they do that to keep the games at Doncaster or as SO says
exchange for some away games would be more sensible, but these rules only apply to certain clubs.

Re: You can't beat home advantage. : Tue Apr 30, 2019 5:43 pm  
that only leaves me 3 available home games left to go to in the next 5 months
may as well have just paid on the gate only seen 3 games now so it will have cost me £10 a game
what a waste of time.
