Sadlier Seals Victory But Moore Keeps Lid On Hopes

HIS team may have enjoyed a superb start to the season, but Doncaster Rovers boss Darren Moore is in no mood to make predictions about where they might finish this season.

A win over an in-form Posh saw Rovers bounces back from a first league defeat of the campaign in some style, with first half goals from James Coppinger and Kieran Sadlier sending them on their way.

Despite being appointed with a mandate of challenging for a top-six finish in League One, Moore has refused to even suggest his side may be capable of achieving that, in spite of the form they have shown so far.

“It’s been a good, solid start to the season,” the Rovers boss said.

“We keep working and the reason I keep saying that is we’re a relatively new team.

“There’s only two players on the pitch from last season. It’s a new team. Let’s have a look at it as the season goes on and see where we are.

“At the moment, the message is clear – it’s about performances.
