The wait is over, its finally here, FOOTBALL IS BACK!

Even though it took Rovers until 2 weeks ago to actually sign a player, things have been far from quiet at the Keepmoat Stadium.  Failed takeovers, players criticizing the club, refusals to play and train and fan unrest is just a snipet of what has been going on at Doncaster Rovers in the last 3 months.  Whatever happened to everybody just getting along?

Anyway, enough of all that, time to get down to business, first game of the season!  Rovers on the road and its one of the longest trips of the season to kick us off.  244 miles, Huish Park Yeovil.  

The Glovers, relegated from The Championship alongside Rovers last season will be looking for a strong start being the home team.  Rovers record at Yeovil isn't good, in fact they haven't won at Huish Park in 10 years.  A late Ricky Ravenhill winner helped push Rovers to the Third Division title.

Its been a tough summer for Paul Dickov, but he has brought well under a tight budget.  The biggest coup probably being the man now regarded as a bit of a legend round these parts, Jamie Coppinger.

I'd love to even attempt to predict what Rovers will do this season but feel its a bit impossible.  Anything could happen, but heres hoping for a good start and we can break our 10 year duck at Huish Park.

Come on you Reds!!
