To all the idiots slagging me off, I’m just stating playing like that is a risk and yes today it paid off, but if your willing to play loosing 72 per cent possession thats not good, it’s shit to watch and teams like Lincoln would be up against it with a few attacks there nothing special

You are speaking through a time vortex and have just watched us get pumped in the experiment season. It's the only thing that makes sense.

You should make a appointment with your doctor, you are very strange.

The most inept piece of frantic backtracking since the Grand Army's retreat from Moscow.

You are aware that being laughed at isn’t the same thing as banter right?

I think that Mr Gibson, if that’s his name is a football fan, but I very much doubt he’s a Doncaster Rovers fan . No doubt he’ll come back on here and start quoting dates and results that he’s just googled.

I think it's brilliant. For the first time in a long time, we are competent at winning games in a variety of ways - play poorer teams off the park with quick, tika taka passing, or grind out result in a battling, defensive, counter attacking performance.

It's f***ing great!

any one starting to see similarities between now and then? Man mountains at the back, captain Tom and butts/the corporal and mccombe, and a genius to magic something out of nothing.. Cotterill and young Taylor? Remind me how that season ended up?

Some definite similarities, the main one if you listen to the players appears to be a real togetherness in seeking to fulfill an ambition - the 12/13 team were headstrong in their belief they could get promoted and this group appear to be the same.

On the field though, we have far more technical ability than we had that season. Times have moved on of course so other sides are the same but I think if you used a time machine to put today's team against that one, this one would win handily.

Imagine corners and free kicks with Rob Jones and Jamie McCombe v Andy Butler and Tom Anderson?

Well I'm sure at no point in a pre match tactical briefing will DM say "right lads, limit yourselves to 28% possession today" so your point is kind of moot anyway. Sometimes its about adapting to, actually you know what, never mind.

The thing is though Rob, fans want to see the team win and we won plenty of times.
I wouldn’t think it is right to say that we all hated watching at that time.

I enjoyed watching us that season. It gets a bit of unfair flak imo. No, the football wasn't great but there was a real sense of togetherness, bouncing back after the experiment disaster, and you just knew walking into away ends that we were coming away with the points most weeks. That team was chocolate, this one is vanilla - both good, just different.

I remember going to.crewe away and going mental when Billy scored that winner.. The attractiveness of the footy wasn't really in question?

That's probably a better way to look at it.
