One ridiculous statement on that forumSomething to do with us getting biased reporting in the Free Press or somethingits blatantly obvious we are going to get more publicity and they wouldn't sell the papers if we didn't get more coverage as we are bigger by a country milethey should just accept it because we are the main tenants now
I had cause to speak to Paul Goodwin this week following the Free Press stories in this weeks edition. Very misleading. It states that the Mustangs have recently come under the Sporting Club banner. Well I can categorically state we haven't. We haven't even been approached. It actually relates to the Juniors but I won't bore you with the full run down suffice to say I put him straight.As for the RL forum, just looks like one bloke talking to himself

As someone who has supported the Rovers since 1950 and the Dons since 1960, and actually worked for the Dons in 1990, I think I have a right to ask why Rovers supporters think they are better than anyone else. Put the boot on the other foot, would you take kindly to having a blue and yellow away strip? Wouldn't you be on here complaining?The truth is that as has been said we have three joint owners, the Dons have Carl Hall and a couple of local businessmen. In the end they will do what they feel is best for both teams whether you, I or anyone else likes it. However, to come on here with the tirade of bad sportsmanship shows a complete lack of understanding of the position ALL Doncaster sporting clubs suffer from, apathy. Rugby, League or Union, will never have the support the Rovers have, but how many on this board keep going on about potential Rovers supporters travelling to Leeds, Sheffield and Barnsley. Face it, Doncaster people are fair weather supporters of anything that is successful. Where are the 25,000 who went to Wembley or the 5 to 7,000 who went to the Dons when they were in what was to become Super League. In the long run, the only way Rovers running the Keepmoat will succeed, is for all users to be united.
Maybe they should accept rugby is shit.
Shame on you Red Baron, I thought you should have noted this! To all those moaning about us playing in blue and gold - what colour was Rovers first kit?http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Doncaster_Rovers/Doncaster_Rovers.htm

Before Don Revie decided to make Leeds look like Real Madrid, they used to play in blue and gold. I rest my case!
Dons will be wearing red and white hoops next season as their away kit!Why not get Wigan to play their home games at the Keepmoat?
