another poor game.

Cov had a 10 min spell of football and that was it. 2 poor sides who will both be relegated.

Says he don't know why Thorn didnt bring on Platt with 20 mins to go. Worst game he seen Juke play. Cody looked a threat but yet again midfield didnt create much.

The cov following was good as ever. Hoffman and Joe Elliot both there again. He spoke to him afterwards and said takeover is still in the pipeline but going to take time.

Let's hope that it will not take too much time. We could be relegated by that time. I know that Hoff. has no money himself and that he will need backers but I would trust him to make the right decisions for the future of our club.

Wasn't a great game. Murphy was vocal, blameless for the goal as I saw it and made a couple of decent saves. Christie didn't offer much, Hussey went off. Needed to change to something more like 4-4-2 earlier as we had a fair amount of the ball, just didn't do much with it. Juke had an off day, McDonald buzzed around but had a one on one saved and we didn't threaten their keeper much. Cameron had a pretty good game, their goal just looked a bit like a shambles and I can't understand how their man was left to score if he wasn't offside. Point against a struggling team doesn't do any favours to either team, but a draw was a fair result. I couldn't go to the Burnley game, although I understand a good few on here are thinking Thorn isn't showing nearly enough nous. It wasn't great today, but he changed it somewhat. The players who should be doing more with the ball aren't helping him out. I can't understand the logic in bringing Bell on with 25 seconds of normal time left, when more effective changes could have been made earlier. But, on today's performance alone, I can't have a huge amount of beef with Thorn. Fairly dire stuff, a couple of questionable decisions, but I think it is the former - down to the players - which has contributed in the main to a point away at Donny.

I was at the game, 10 minutes?? Seriously??

We were more like the home side first 45 mins, they defended deep and played 4-5-1. Admittedly we tried to pass them to death and rarely threatened but we were certainly on top for more than 10 minutes.

As the home team down by a goal at halftime they were always going to come at us second half. No team will go anywhere and dominate a home team. We're a poor side but nobody has dominated us at the Ricoh.

We have a squad given to us by SISU that we are stuck with, if anyone expects them to dominate teams they're foolish and after being at the Keepmoat today I think saying we only played for ten minutes is, to be polite, plain wrong!
