Fathers' Day fun. Poster for the weekend's game (not by me).

I went on the train to Donny. Walked it to the ground but then caught the bus back into town after the game. Ended up chatting to a bloke in his 70s who was a former Doncaster die-hard but now picks and chooses his games. Worst team to play at Doncaster for years was how he described us. That's us. Oldham, founder members of the RFL. I bloody hated hearing that. We're better than that performance. I've played enough sport to know that stuff like that can inexplicably happen but we need to get over it. Ten games — win them all and we'll probably finish top. We won 14 on the bounce in 2015, so ten is a cake-walk.
