This is the time of year when Rovers fans are filled with anticipation, And this season is no different, except the Club havn’t added any exaggeration, We’ve gone about our rebuilding in a quiet and determined way, John Ryan wants us in the Championship and he wants us there to stay. We’ve got a keeper that some Clubs would die for and with him came Hird, for good measure; Then we brought in Hayter, Wellens and Woods, I’m sure watching them will be a pleasure. So, when you combine the new boys with the likes of Coppinger, Heffs and JJ Price, You can see why us Rovers fans are quietly thinking that this season just might be rather nice. The first team potential line-up starts with Neil Sullivan in goal; A defence more or less the same as last year – if you know the new centre back – don’t tell a soul! The midfield’s made up of Wellens, Stocky and Woods and whilst they’re not, by any means, flops- We’ve got Greeny, Griff, Wilson and Nelly trying to get in, not to mention the magical Copps. For the strikers we need look no further, and, whilst McCammon looks like the terminator, We’ve got something much more deadly than that, we have the ‘Heff n Hayter’ Pricey sits out the first few weeks, with Kevin Horlock on the sidelines for a mate; Now, when you consider that lot above, when you come for the first game, don’t be late! Millwall is the first match up, another team with reason to hope; When faced with our new midfield set-up, they’ll be asking how they’re going to cope? If we get another goal this season, like Wellens' against Retford on that Tuesday night, They’ll be changing the name of the Keepmoat into the 'Stadium of Fright'. Forest fans are already believing that they’re going to be in the top 2, And Leeds will be taking the other spot, so that leaves the rest with nowt to do- Except grapple for the play-off’s and whilst the bookies seem to agree with that, My message is “underestimate us at your peril”, unless you’re a bit of a pratt. With the likes of both Manchester Clubs descending on us and Hull to make a return, We’ll soon find out about the new boys and they’ll have little left to learn. Whilst we may not have a Ronaldo and that Wayne Rooney’s a bit of a lad, I’d much rather support my Donny, ‘cos when all’s said and done, we’re not that bad! So, we’re almost ready for the big kick-off and it’s great to be a Doncaster Fan; We’re going to try and make the Keepmoat a fortress, ‘cos we’re an exceptional ‘12th man’. Come on, get behind the lads this season and if anyone moans at you “get a grip!” Tell them there’s no room for detractors, JR’s Quiet Revolution leads to the Championship.
Arrogant pikey inbred knobs Just where does this big headed arrogance come from? I hate the whole lot lock stock and two smokin... and to think i was glad when they got promoted back into the league. Nothing would delight me more than to see them back in the Conference!
