Knights make the most of lifelines
The Non-League Football Paper|March 24, 2024
AN extraordinary game at Castle Park in which there was one red card and three yellows, saw an outstanding recovery by Doncaster who played most of the contest with 14 men and yet surprisingly drew, having been 22-3 behind 10 minutes into the second half.

Knights make the most of lifelines

Doncaster coach Joe Ford said: "We made it hard for ourselves in the first half, but I've a lot of admiration for the team.

With 13 men on the pitch, we were looking down a barrel, but we showed loads of character which is the number one trait you need in a team." Both sides were guilty of a lack of discipline with Doncaster winger Maliq Holden shown a red card in the first half for punching, and later flanker Fyn Brown was sin-binned, so at one stage the Knights were reduced to 13 only.
