Subs  Cartwright, Green, Waterfall, Pyke, Gnahoua, Andrews, Mullarkey

Cartwright starting AND on the bench, eh?! The ultimate vote of no confidence for Eastwood then.

No Khan, i notice.

Let's hope Cartwright is up to it big game for him and us .

Can't see how Green doesn't play - maybe still not 100% fit?

Let's bring those 3 points back

433?

Looks good and a strong bench

🤞 for a good performance

Regardless of all the speculation let’s get behind the team and the manager at least until full time

Who will be the first to call fck out of them at 90 mins.

Old habits, I have now amended the post. Thanks for telling me.

Come on town, we need some cheering up after the last few weeks
Lets be havin yer

I hope we play better than that kit. It's excrement!

I like the kit

Brave to give Cartwright the nod.  He's gotta make the most of it.  

Playing well. Even the ref is good.

Bratfud losing to Sutton

Quoted from Badger57

Tut tut !! Your opinion respected on here BUT are you aware
It was designed by a junior  mariner.

10 mins gone and were looking OK

Looking bright so far . Hopefully they won’t collapse if Donny score

This ref is rubbish, Rose was pushed over several times as well as Amos.

Eisa needs velcro on his boots. The ball keeps bouncing off them.

Comforting that Carwright has barely been mentioned

Rose is a very good player, a really poor diver though.

He's had very little to do, the defence are doing the job

Good save from Cartwright.

Quoted from DB

Town playing well. Rovers have come into the game it bit more, never the less looking good.

Unlucky there by Gav, not much space and at full stretch when he hit it

Good effort from Gav, nealy scored

Why are all the fans opposite in black?  Some kind of cult?

Half a clean sheet!

So far so good

Quoted from Mayaman

Why are all the fans opposite in black?  Some kind of cult?

It's coal dust

Town look more organised, especially at the back.

Genuine contender for the worst half of entertainment you'll ever see.

Two incredibly poor sides.

Some observations on the first half.
Doncaster are sh1t. Town started well but seem unable to score when they are on top and got progressively worse as the half wore on . Why are we so crap at crossing and set piece delivery ?
Same old story !

Plus points, Holohan and Conteh playing well.

Decent start but steadily gone downhill as the half progressed and Doncaster came into it. One decent chance each but overall pretty dull fare from two poor teams with Town although slightly having the edge, Donny looking a little more dangerous going forward.

A much more Hurst like performance this - everyone holding their positions ,grafting and maintaining concentration (barring one Amos slip up on the left ).

Frustration is if we had setup like this the last 5 games we would not be in the mess we are  and won a few .

Need another 45 of the same or better and we will get a point ,maybe all 3 ; like we say most weeks the opposition are not any great shakes .

Did well for the first half of the half, not so well for the second. Looked to be a couple of relatively-close headed chances but hard to tell from the other end. Felt like Gav should've done better when through, but again, hard to tell. Completely unnecessary booking though, gotta hope it doesn't come back to haunt him. Good save from Cartwright and far too much space down our left at times. Amos dozing almost gifted them a goal when he just needs to clear it. Our weak link in that half I'm afraid

Stop hoofing it.

We can only play what is against us. We need the points, so entertainment not a priority

So near so close, nearly a goal

Holohan is playing like man possesed

Quoted from GrimPol

Absolutely. It was an observation of the game and both sides in general, not a criticism.

3 out of the 4 teams below us are winning

Quoted from Captain Sensible

Try reading it again

I've changed my mind about the ref,

Ref didn't see the foul on Wison, knocked flying, nor the one on Gave seconds later.

I think any half decent team beats this Donny side quite comfortably...

Donny look like we do deep midfield, slow sideeays passing that leads to a hoof to an issolated strike force

The ref is going to cost us here

This ref goes from bad to worse, Efete drops his head for the ball , against a foot and Donny get a free kick for the foul

Penno for Doncaster

Pen to Donny

FFS easy pen for the ref to give

Inarguable penalty. Has Holohan put Hurst out of a job?

1-0

This stinks, gave them a pen.

1-0 :-/

Only another 19 minutes until we make an attacking sub

Proper pen that Cartwright had no chance saving that

We're actually pish aren't we?

What took so long!
??) ??) ??) ??) ??) ??) ??)

Can't blame Cartwright, it was a good pen 1  0 down

sodomist.   Great cross from Clifton nobody attacking the ball - again?  Bleeding pen few mins later. No way cartwright could stop that pen.  Hurst's noose must be tightening.

.. And we are losing to a very, very poor Doncaster team.  :o

This is starting to get ridiculous.

21st at the moment! Hello non-league unless somebody grows a pair and takes action NOW!!!!!

Quoted from It Bites

Spot on

We might be 1 0 down but the fans are in good voice. Well done

Quoted from DB

Spot on

Tbf Gav should of let the player go but the ref couldn’t wait to give it

So we didn't get a pen for the foul on Harry. Refs a Sh!t hole

I’d say make some subs but there’s not a lot on the bench either. He bought so badly over the summer

To be honest we are rubbish but the ref is a shite. He had given us nothing all match and never was going to and he couldn’t wait to give them a penalty. He is a bald tosser right male masturbator and absolute shite ref and had a reputation of a shite ref

No pen. Wishful thinking.

Eisa was scoring for fun in his first few games.. and now he has descended into obscurity. What happened?

Rodgers goes down in the box, no pen. Refs crap

Quoted from DB

Rodgers goes down in the box, no pen. Refs crap

Come on DB. Both appeals have been extremely hopeful.

So we’re relying on a soft pen to get us out a hole . He’s got to go tonight. Come on 1878 earn the fans respect

Is this the same ref that head butted an Ipswich player?

Some miss from the Doncaster lad there

Apart from Conteh the recruitment has been diabolical

Quoted from smokey111

Come on DB. Both appeals have been extremely hopeful.

Yep, but I'm optimistic hopeful and all for Town

Quoted from Chrisblor

Some miss from the Doncaster lad there

Looked like if he didn't touch it, it was going in. Could be just the TV angle.

Finaly with 4 minutes left Hurst makes a sub.

I can understand the argument that we've sort of done ok, hence no changes. However, the injection of energy must be a needed after 85 minutes

Losing 1 nil 3 minutes left and we make our first sub.

Criminal.

I'm sorry but we are excrement. Donny are really poor and we've created one good chance which was well saved. The crossing and last ball has been abysmal throughout the game.
I'm afraid it's not just bad luck or bad karma, It's not even lack of confidence, the lads have put in a shift, it's just being inept.
We need a change. Mr Hurst must now be relieved of his duties or it's the unthinkable of non league again.

Colchester and MKD both winning again after sacking their managers

Does anybody know the gate figures please?

What a save Cartwright

We are utterly toothless. No threat at all, this is a  really, really poor team

Brilliant save by Cartwright

We ain't been right good this season so far but neither have we had the rub of the green.  Donny defender headed out for what looked like a clear corner, and his teammate extended what appeared to be telescopic legs to stop it going out. WTF?!    TBF Cartwright has had a steady game althouth not much to do.

One positive:- Cartwright has played well. Congratulations to the young lad, pleased for him. 👏

Quoted from HerveJosse

Colchester and MKD both winning again after sacking their managers

  He's got to go , I've had enough of watching this sh*te!

We’re not a poor team as early season form showed . Just a management team who have clearly lost the players

1 shot on target (according to BBC)

JT keeps saying another game when we've played well... wake up John for goodness sake.

JT keeps say img we have played well BBC stats says we have had one shot on target.

Dear me . Every ball in the box has been aimless

Fine margins, but not in our favour, again.

Quoted from Ruston AT

  He's got to go , I've had enough of watching this sh*te!

The winner of the first one to say "shite " after 90 mins.

I'm almost speechless after that. We have just lost to one of the worst sides I've seen all season. I would love to hear from some of Paul Hurst's supporters as to why he should remain in a job this evening ?

Totally toothless, crap crossing and set piece delivery and no substitutions when clearly improvements were needed.

I'm sorry Paul but time is up.

FFS !!!!!!!!!!!

Hurst has to go.

What's JT on saying we played well. Must been watching a different game to me.

Donny were not great but we were toothless and offered nothing

If 1878 don’t pull the trigger I’m losing respect for them as custodians of our club .

A firework with no bang.

We must not forget our travelling fans who put up another good show, unfortunately the team didn't. A safe journey home to one and all.

I hope no one mentions fight, bottle, getting stuck in, not caring etc
That's not a problem
Its an almost total lack of quality

Time after time when you either watch live or listen to commentary the final cross/ball is woeful, shite, awful

In a game we dominated we have had 6 shots and 1 on target - not good enough

Ironically the defence sounded as though it was very sound

But Donny were crap and we've lost

Heavy heart time...

Been a big Hurst fan but it is time for a change - fresh face, fresh ideas, fresh voice

Honestly bigger budget worse team.

Losing some big players in the summer now showing. The loans we had also played a massive part last season, the quality just isn't there atm .

Need fresh ideas and quick.

He had to go.. football was so booooring   under him  no go just all defend orientated.. Winged he needed this backroom staff and that backroom staff and none of it made any differance.. Wasted the bigest pot of cash we have probably had and gone backwards  faster than hollowhead ran out of town
