Transfer targets

Door shut on Ephron Mason-Clark

Doncaster Rovers asked and Coventry City said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Transfer targets

Ivan Zlobin will not be coming to Doncaster Rovers

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Famalicao is saying, and nobody at Doncaster Rovers is enjoying the guessing.

As if he never left: Harry Clifton returns

Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Harry Clifton is a Doncaster Rovers player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Transfer targets

No deal for Luke Woolston at that price

Doncaster Rovers offered $320.0K; Middlesbrough said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Doncaster Rovers

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Match

A bad afternoon for Doncaster Rovers against Stevenage

1‑3 to Stevenage, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Christopher Henderson is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Joseph Thompson has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
