Market25 Feb 2036

Tommaso Mola has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Doncaster Rovers they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

The dugout25 Feb 2036

Miguel Mota: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Doncaster Rovers have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Boardroom25 Feb 2036

Doncaster Rovers to lose Tommaso Mola for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Tommaso Mola has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Squad25 Feb 2036

Tommaso Mola in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Doncaster Rovers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad25 Feb 2036

Joel Ndala falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match23 Feb 2036

A bad afternoon for Doncaster Rovers against Norwich City

1‑2 to Norwich City, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout25 Feb 2036

Interim Coach faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Interim Coach after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Squad25 Feb 2036

Robert White stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Robert White and Doncaster Rovers agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout25 Feb 2036

Doncaster Rovers keep their word to Nick de Groot

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Player ratings11 Feb 2036

Simone Negri beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 30. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Market11 Feb 2036

The Fleetwood Town deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Tommaso Mola reports back to Doncaster Rovers with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

The dugout11 Feb 2036

Jack Carter keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Doncaster Rovers may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Market11 Feb 2036

Only the photograph left for Gnadou Gohi

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Gnadou Gohi will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Doncaster Rovers the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad11 Feb 2036

Words exchanged at Doncaster Rovers

Tommaso Mola and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Too dear: Doncaster Rovers walk away from Rayan Aït-Nouri

$64.0K was the most the club would pay and Liverpool were asking for more. Deals like this are revived in the last week of a window roughly half the time, and everybody involved knows it.

Squad11 Feb 2036

A row about effort at Doncaster Rovers

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Michal Ševčík was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets11 Feb 2036

Door shut on Dani Ángel

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

Market11 Feb 2036

Robert White steps up from the Doncaster Rovers academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Robert White has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
