Some good saves from Lawlor in there, as well as the 4 goals.

The football we played leading up to the second goal was particularly outstanding.

"Doncaster have ripped Middlesbrough apart"!

Not even in my dreams did I ever imagine I'd  hear that on television....

Funny that Sky showed every moment that Boro had and made it look like a game where we were hands to the pump and pinched 4 goals. For those who didn’t see the game let me be the one to tell you…. They were well beaten. Ef sky.

Wow.
Im sure i read boro changed 6 of their winning side from the weekend & we changed 11.
The competition for places is the best i can remember, even Lawlor made some great stops.
Poor Joe tho, how did he miss that ?

Well I’ve watched it several times and still can’t get my head round it!

The 11 v 11’s at Cantley must be good to watch.

I'd buy a ticket. Maybe the club should do an end of season Rovers v Rovers game at the moat. It would be fascinating.

Well he was being manhandled even before Bailey got his head to the ball, one of the pictures in the gallery on the website shows their no5 with both hands pushing Joe when diving for the ball.

They had some chances but Gibson and Ironside had some decent should score chances too.

Watched the highlights and the whole performance was awesome. Massive quality all round but what is particularly pleasing is the genuine pleasure shown by the players in what they are doing and the togetherness and team spirit just shines through.
Like Bob G - I can't stop watching it and wish I had gone to see it happening.
