Ripley???? He had a good game but was he really MOTM?

Can’t recall many saves he had to make.

Just brilliant.

Great game last night, I think Donny are the best league two team to have visited the wham this season, amusing comment in the programme jimmy bell on the one that got away, glenn murray turned up with his manager and asked eric whalley for another 50 quid a week eric showed him the door and he went to Rochdale

Doncaster look like a very good team - passed the ball well, fast pace, entertaining. Probably the best opposition I've seen in League 1.

Makes the victory all the more sweeter. And we deserved it - held our own well, solid defending when Doncaster had decent spells, and some brilliant football - particularly end of first half, start of second.

Barlaser looks like a quality player.

Made up for zanzala - hopefully will go on and score a few more soon

Also, how many late goals do we score?! I think that's 7 now in the last 15 mins of the games.

Roughly a quarter of the season gone, in 5th place, only lost one game, playing some great football at times. Absolutely brilliant.

To be honest i thought Walsall were better, Donny were very good but kept resorting to Dirty play, Walsall played football full stop i thought. how they remained with all 11 on field last night is down to very poor officials imho,

excellent game. both sides produced excellant football and one of the best games i,ve seen for ages. possitive football was played and we did not have a bad player on the pitch. shows what we can do when all the players are on top of their game. far to early to talk about the P word. just need to keep on getting results and just lets see where it takes us.

which game did you go to last night. without his saves and blocks earlier in the game we would be talking about an unlucky defeat and not a great win. wish they would scrap this man of the match though as it was a fine team performance and not an under 11 kids game.

To be honest most of the side coulda been MoM last night and no one coulda complained at the choice, dont understand why some are?

I have to agree that Doncaster Rovers were the best side we have seen at The Wham so far this season.........

Apart from the MIGHTY STANLEY!

Way i saw it TomD, was at Walsall would have not complained if we had got a point, but last night i thought we deserved all 3. imho

Having watched last night from the EW Stand, I agree with others, fantastic view, felt like an earthquake when everyone started stamping and clapping along with the Clayton end. Thank you Andy Holt for helping to make this happen. My only query is where will the ramp go for wheelchair supporters? Fantastic match played by 2 very good footballing sides. The longer it went on, the more I worried that Donny may nick it, then the inspired substition. Not doing my blood pressure any good, but who cares. On Stanley on.

Lord Didsbury · 03-10-2018, 20:12

Donny had 3 shots on target. One of them was when Wilks shot was deflected behind off Ripley’s legs. That means he might have made a couple of proper saves. Is that MOTM stuff?

Lord Didsbury · 03-10-2018, 20:15

Actually, all three saves are shown on the highlights. Nowt special about any of them. Ludicrous award.
