I'll start wetting my knickers the day we take 3000 to Yorkshire for a normal league game
Yes, that would something. Especially when I remember Middlesbrough away in 84/85 I counted 27 of us on the terrace! (and it wasn't even a midweek game!)

Was that the year when the police did the refreshments?

But at least you wasn't the only person in The Oak this season 20 mins before KO, of a massive Checkatrade game.
Doncaster's ticket sales are poor but i'd guess quite a few of their lot will be waiting to see how they get on in the 1st leg.
If they bring a lead to the Valley then numbers will be good, but they're not going to rush to buy a ticket if we win 2-0. No chance of them selling out by the weekend so most of their fans can afford to wait.
To think what this club could achieve with an interested owner …. Maybe if we reach the heady heights of the Championship we might be worth what our current incumbent is trying to get for a current League 1 side.
Come on you REDS, make the next few games something to remember.....

John Marquis gave his Doncaster Rovers team-mates the ultimate compliment by insisting: Not one of our play-off rivals’ players would get in our team.
Donny entertain Charlton in the first leg of their play-off semi-final on Sunday, with the second leg at The Valley the following Friday.
The Keepmoat Stadium outfit finished sixth in the final League One table – 12 points adrift of fifth-placed Sunderland and 15 shy of the 85 points accrued by both Pompey and the Addicks.
Meanwhile, Donny had just the one player named in the PFA League One Team of the Year.
That player was former Blues loanee Marquis, whose 25 goals helped Grant McCann’s side book a top-six finish.
Yet despite their recognition, Marquis believes none of them would fit into the Rovers first-team set-up.
Speaking to the Doncaster Free Press, the front man said: ‘There is no one in our team I'd swap for anyone in any of the other teams in the play-offs.
‘We're going in there as a unit and we'll see what can happen.
‘We'll take anyone. We're not scared of anyone.’
Marquis, who scored two goals in six appearances for Pompey during the 2013-14 League Two season, was also confident of his side’s chances ahead of the forthcoming play-off games.
He added: ‘There has already been a lot of talk from the other teams, saying how good they all are.
‘Let’s see how good they are.
"They finished with a lot of points more than us. Fair enough.
‘But this is just three games. If we win the next three games, we are in the Championship next season.
‘Charlton are the next team. All we are concentrating on is getting the right result over these two games. Then, if we can, it is Wembley. But we look no further than the next two.’

That was seriously cold that day and glad for the police doing the refreshements

If we get promoted Roly ain't going nowhere
Not true. Everything that comes out of him says that he wants out of football. If we go up, someone might be willing to pay a bit closer to his ridiculous asking price.
If we stay down, we've got most of our squad and our management team out of contract. I dread to think who we'll be watching in our shirts next season, we won't be anywhere near the top 6 if the budget only stretches to a few more Josh Parker equivalents.

Team talk written - use it lads. They think you're shit - show them just how good you are...

No...it was the year Aizlewood got sent off, Ronnie Moore gave away a pen (he was playing centre-back by then) and we lost 1-0.
Season started brilliantly, we won 3-0 at Cardiff (Hales 3) and we went on a decent run. Hales broke the all-time goal record when he scored a diving header at home to Huddersfield but by about March he just disappeared to Gillingham.
The police refreshments out the back of their van, was the following promotion season when we won 3-1 (Mark Stuart with a great solo goal).

Figured you might want something new to do @Addickted
Piece of piss when your opponents arent that far though
