Grown into this one. Feared for us early doors with Amos keeping us in it with an excellent save. Got our counter attacking going well now though with Hackford looking dangerous. I don’t mind us sitting in if we have this pacey counter attack in numbers that we’ve had since scoring. 

 

Hackford isn't much of a footballer but he's made for the counter attack. I also think him and Stockley up front together would work.

Yep, Tolaj can’t seem to get in to the game. 

Not a classic, but we are winning. I genuinely don’t think we were playing any better in some of the away wins early on in the season. Notts County, MK Dons, Morecambe for example.

Again, the game is based on small margins.

Amos looks really impressive. Calm, good distribution, organising the back line, a couple of great saves.

Done brilliant since he come into the side 👍🏻 

Clark, Croasdale, Hackford playing well. I would definitely switch it up and get Chislett and Curtis pushing them back. They look shaky at the back and slow.

Hackford brilliant the lads stretching them superbly.

At times we are a bit braindead though as allowing players free shots especially there right back .

Henegan great block and if Amos saved it fantastic

Goals a good un but we need  to improve second half for sure .

Sharps a massive danger lots of  work to do to get a point never mind 3

That's true now but Osh was dead right when he said it.

We've certainly picked up since the goal though and he looks a lot more confident. 

Keep this up and we've got every chance.

Don’t give these a chance by losing shape, as they are knocking it around a bit without going anywhere then just smashing it long.

Not a particularly good first half but going 1-0 up against the run of play will hopefully bring some confidence back in to the team. The new lad seems to have slotted in well and Hackford is causing some problems with his pace, just wish he’d be a little bit stronger when challenged. 

3rd now.

It's not just the Doncaster fans that are getting frustrated. The players are too. They are getting over the half way line and have few options so they have gone backwards and sideways. They were hitting the big diags early on but our shape since scoring has blocked that off. Need to keep the threat on the break, bring on pace at the right time and we have a chance here. 

Just watching goal again what a brilliant move Lowe involved new lad involved Clark involved Smith involved hackford the way he takes off past him.brillliant and Croasdale finishes it superbly .

Very similar to Notts County away.

Back to basics, we look well organised.

Superb save from Amos. Ive been really impressed with his distribution since he came into the team.

Hackford did extremely well for the goal and a lovely finish from Croas.

I think we need to pass the ball better in the midfield and would like to see a bit more from Tolaj to keep hold of the ball.

Very big 2nd half for the season.
