Had to smile when the Donny fans all cheered thinking they had scored.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Their number 9 is lucky to be still on the pitch, it's a friendly FFS

Pollock doesn’t look out of place at all at the back, looks like a big presence. This is the most physical town side I’ve ever seen with the front two bullying their centre backs

Good performance all round but Whitehouse has impressed me so far.

The Donny team coach driver asked to go immediately back to his coach, surely not.

Half time report...0-0
4-3-1-2 formation with Hendrie and Gibson pushing up slightly when we have possession.
Whitehouse..Clifton and Hess look solid and grafting but no finesse.
Gibson looks solid and quick in the tackle. Promising.
Full backs not progressing far enough up to give us real width in attack which has left us looking for channel balls for Green or diagonals for Hanson.... Hanson has a gorilla on his back so not winning enough to be effective.
Moses seems to be in a hole behind the front two but is getting bypassed so looks anonymous really.
Hard working....solid....but no player looks capable of skinning their opposite number and therefore we are relatively non threatening.
They have used our lack of width effectively to gain yards and crossing opportunities which Pollock and Ohman have dealt with ok so far.
One good effort from Whitehouse saved by the keeper for us.

Need some flair from somewhere to get some alternative attacking options.

Ogbu isn’t impressing me so far, still time for him to adapt but his touch just isn’t there right now. Hanson has been very slow to get up and support Green when he’s had the ball at his feet in the box, I’d like to see how we’d do will a quicker striker up with one of those two. Sick of seeing their number 9 having a paddy every five minutes!

Quoted from Les Brechin
Is there any specific reason why this game kicks off at 12 noon. I'm working til 1 so can't make it.

Surely it can't be that they're expecting trouble.


Making sure all the fans are in the ground on a Saturday morning for a “friendly” is overkill as far as I’m concerned

Had it been a 3-00 pm kick off I’d have been there but I didn’t want to set off mid morning to come over for what in essence is still only a practice match

I wonder what effect the early kick off will have had on the attendance today? Can’t imagine the South Yorkshire contingent being massive.

At least the score at HT (0-0) means there shouldn’t be anything to spark the bitter rivalry between our two clubs ( my tongue is firmly in my cheek as I write that 😁 )
