The financial implications must be huge. For us fans, the away games are dull as f**k. Maybe the reason we don't fill the stadium as much as we should because we think we're better than those teams you list. Do we want more of what we've just experienced? Give yourselves a teamtalk! Eh, I'd rather be up there locking horns with Rotherham with 12 to 13k there than playing Barrow.Even GM said this club shouldn't be in lg2. Yes, we have no divine right in bring in a higher league but looking at the stature of our club, the infrastructure and potential, it has to be at least lg1. We have to earn the right to get promoted I don't get excited about who we play as such, I get excited about supporting Doncaster Rovers. You must be able to see the irony of the Lucky Pint threads titled 'TLOD' Did folk turn out in their droves to watch Barrow or Crewe, or to watch Donny? So you don't get a buzz from the big local derbies?You know Barrow at home is not the same as Rotherham at home, nowhere near.

Fleetwood is the proper kicker. Worse away day in the 92? Must be close.
Give your heads a wobble.12 weeks ago it was highly likely that we could be up against Solihull Moors, Braintree, Eastleigh, Wealdstone, afc fylde.At least we still have some local games against Chesterfield, Grimsby and Bradford

Who failed?Yes we didn't make it through the play off semis. At the end of January we had 29 points from 29 games and sat in 22nd place.So losing in the play offs is a failure? Jesus wept.!!!!!As for the 4th division being crap, it isn't. It's just the 4th division and all clubs are here on merit. OK local derbies and bigger crowds are great, but why can't games against the other sides be entertaining??

OK local derbies and bigger crowds are great, but why can't games against the other sides be entertaining??I've been impressed with the quality of football by a good number of clubs in this division. Clearly there have been some very strong sides and they have reeped their rewards and gone up. Well done to them. Comments like, this league is s**t is justification to many to not go regularly and try to put themselves on some sort of moral pedestal.
No we shouldn't be down in league two, but we are where we deserve to be and so does every other club. But until the club and fans want us fighting hard to win all our games it's where we will stay. Most of us had high hopes for last season, but the end result is we are still here. Hope continues that we will do better next season.
IDM, don't mistake my post as a criticism of GM and the players. It's more of a pragmatic view of it.I have had so much fun this season, apart from Notts away.I'm already looking forward to the fixtures coming out.
Next season is going to be completely different from what we have been used to. the kick off times days we play are going to be dictated by the sponsors of the league for TV and broadcasting. Travelling to away games could become quite a different experience with the variation of kick off times dictated by others and most games being available to watch.
