What happened to George Miller that went there from us? Scored a few goals for them last season, but since disappeared.
Wouldn’t have been bothered if they’d gone down tbh. The so-called Donny fans I knew took great delight during our Admin struggle days, beating us was one thing, but wanting us to go out of existence is another. They tried and failed to create an intense rivalry with us then the Sheffield clubs, but laughingly their ‘ sleeping giant is awakening’ rhetoric (or rather ******) was short-lived. As you can tell from this post, I don’t have much time for them
Pretty much sums my feelings up on them too. I loved seeing them do well, then one day they rocked up at oakwell calling us every name under the sun and really appeared to hate us. Couldn’t understand it at all as I didn’t even know Donny had a team until 2003.
Am wi Jay. Nice bacon roll wi brown sauce... always thought of Donny as poor neighbours and wi odd exceptions they av bin..
Those results were soon put to bed with the 10 man massacre at Oakwell, even recently - our first half mauling by our toddlers on their own park. Feel for me, l had a Donny girlfriend when they turned up at Oakwell with a mens team - I'd only heard of the Belles.
They have never been a well supported club. I remember going the under stendel on a Friday night on sky we took 4k and the total attendance was around 10k if I remember right. Edit just looked and it was over 11k the total attendance my bad.
Remember that game well. 0-0, Ben Williams in centre mid after Kenny Dougall broke his leg (and tried to play on!!), and an £80 parking fine. I’ve had better nights.
