There might have been Wellie fans there as well as other neutrals.

Definitely Wellie fans there

If Dearne get promoted, they'll probably be playing Wellie next season.

[DearneValleyRover]

Hope so

[Pancho Regan]

Who are Wellie? Is that Armthorpe Welfare?
Excuse my ignorance.

If that crowd is correct and even 50% were Dearne supporters, that is 400 fans supporting Donny City.

I find that quite amazing to be honest.

My second team is Steeton FC, my local team.
I think they are level 10 in the pyramid. They average 100 attendance at home games.
844 at Doncaster City is incredible by comparison.

I’m puzzled.

Yeah, they currently play at Armthorpe's ground.

Just seen the highlights. Seem to be Dearne fans in one section near the entrance. Seem's pretty even to me.

I've looked all over for the highlights. The only ones coming up are the highlights of the first game between the teams at Dearne in August.

Any pointers?

Thanks, WR. I enjoyed it. The crowd running on the pitch was hilarious.

[Metalmicky]

Are they sponsored by Pukka...?

[silent majority]

I’ve had a look at this league and there’s some very local derbies Harworth Col, AFC Bentley and  Rossington Main RESERVES, it’s step 11 of the football pyramid. I just think it’s another of McKay’s pie in the ideas, remember that sports village he was going to build at Bawtry, it was supposed to going to be a rival to Bisham Abbey

Sometimes you don’t have to build what you say you’re going to build to realise value in something that might have been pretty much worthless before you announced your plans.

But sometimes it doesn’t change anything either.

If you see what I mean.

[DonnyOsmond]

They're still planning on building it, aren't they?

[Sprotyrover]

Mulgrew 37,Hoolahan 41and MCCormak 37, aye aye Willie MCKay!

[DearneValleyRover]

The latter was close to 37 stone

[roversdude]

Seems like it’s all geared to make the land more valuable to me

Parking facilities and a new access road to the greenbelt site are also mentioned

Hmm wicked Willie wants the Council to engage!

[NickDRFC]

I bet Hoolahan could still do a job in League Two now, even at 41. Unbelievable player.

[Chris Black come back]

Unlikely. He last played a professional game in April 2022.

Hardly noticeable to be honest

[WheatleyRover]

They have put up the proper highlights now

[Sammy Chung was King]

Never seen so many pitch invasions. Sad to see McCormack playing in that shape, shouldn’t have gone on the pitch, couldn’t do himself justice. Hoolihan you could see still had the first touch and time on the ball. Dearne looked a good side, but ran out of steam. The pitch was terrible. Nice to see all the enthusiasm for the game from the supporters.

[TonySoprano]

Wouldn't feel sorry for mcormack, if the rumours are true, he pocketed £3k for his appearance

All 4 of the ex pros did, that’s how scared they were of not getting the win

[drfchound]

A bit of an experiment then.

[TonySoprano]

Can see them in the national league sooner or later

[Jonathan]

You can see them before then if you’re wanting to.

[Draytonian III]

They’re in Step 11 now I doubt it they’ll get as far as Step 8, perhaps it’s not all about football

[mushRTID]

Cant believe I have sat and watched them.

I dont know what I was expecting but they are absolutely shite!
