from todays Yorkie post -: "the manner in which we lost that game (to Arse reserves) took its toll mentally on the players more than we could have imagined at the time. As a result of the cup run everyone is also aware of our capabilities and they seem to raise their game when we come up against them" total ***** mate - losing to Arse reserves shouldn't knacker your season. And other teams raising their game against the mighty Donny when there are such small teams as Forest, Bristol City & Huddersfield in the division ? Dont think so somehow - just the fact that Donny are an average team, albeit one with an uncanny knack of making us look bollux. Dave Penney - man under prsssure ????
They have lost the last four if you include the Arsenil 'C' team game.</p> An FA cup exit down at PV tomorrow and their season is just about over.</p> </p>

They always raise their game against us because we are a much bigger club than they will ever be. That's why we lose to them regularly.
