I would have liked to have seen Donny stay up after what happened with the abandoned game and I also thought they were hard done by yesterday, never a penalty in my view. Also impressed by how Dickov took defeat. They deserved better.
It was only down to the pitch Donny went 3-1 up. It was pretty much impossible to defend our goal at times. I have no sympathy for them. As others have said its a 46 game season. Still would rather it had been the scum from down the road that went down
Donny are down,get over it,bet they were not bothered about Brum going down,and I wonder if Donny have got any good players we could pinch for nothing from them
My initials when they appointed Dickov was tosser of a player/manager, like seeing him get beat. However, changed my opinion after the re-arranged home clash. He came out and said the original fixture didn't matter and that we were the better team and deserved to win. Fair play to his reaction because I always associated as a player who couldn't help but get involved. He was the type of player like Robbie Savage who you knew would use gamesmanship throughout the match, and I thought he'd be like that as a manager. But he took the defeat to us in good dignity.
Very dignified in defeat and relegation yesterday as well.

Just watched FL show, who mentioned the game. Always with a dig, as bleedin' expected. If you go down the route of blame, also blame the ref for the dodgy looking penaly on the day against Leicester, looked like a dive and Neil Danns missing a sitter against Birmingham for Bolton at 2-1. Dickovs statement said it as it it is, it is because of performances over the season. Agree with Brian that Dickov was very dignified.
It was JJ's fault! For pouring his water bottle onto the pitch. That tipped the balance from 'soggy pitch' to 'abandoned game', and Doncaster went down as a result. What a tangled web we weave!

Nothing to do with 'gamesmanship', to do with him being a dirty **** with little man syndrome who looked to injure people.

Would have preferred Donny to stay up as they would have been more likely to get relegated than Brum next season
Good luck for Donnie for next season.
