What next? 

Donny are holding interviews today and it will be interesting to see who they eventually choose.

It has been a tough first-half of the campaign and there is no doubt that they will need to strengthen their squad in the upcoming January transfer window.

They are scheduled to play Sunderland on 27th December followed by games against Cambridge United and Morecambe over New Year.

Doncaster won their last game in the league 1-0 at home to Shrewsbury.
