| A
surprisingly good run would see this match at
Doncasters new stadium be a battle between two
sides slogging it out for a play-off spot.
On a cold Tuesday night in Yorkshire, with many
fans saving their money for Christmas
shopping, Robert Jones made his Crocs on
Tour debut as we were honored to watch Brighton
and Hove Albions first ever match at the
Keepmoat |

and black stockings.

| Dean
Wilkins Attire: |
Mr
Wilkins chose to wear a suit coupled with his
trench coat. Special note must go to opposing
manager Sean O'Driscoll for combining brown suit
trousers with a training jumper in one of the
most fashionable hybrid managers uniforms seen
in recent years

| Weather: |
Light
drizzle blighted the journey, but it was a
clear, if not something fresh evening in
Doncaster
|
| Stadium
Rating: |
The
Keepmoat Stadium has followed the basic
principle of the 'Southampton-Derby-Leicester'
new ground look, being fully enclosed on all
sides. However, the smaller size of the stadium
and the delightfully positioned floodlights on
the roof add some character to it, and set it
apart from the ones listed above. 8/10
|
| Food
Rating: |
The
burgers were slightly moist, but this did not
prevent Jones dominating two. McCarthy was happy
with the standard of his lubricated penis,
although the bread was slightly stale. Haribo
and Ribenna inside the ground was an added
bonus. 6/10
|
| Entertainment: |
Superb.
Scantily clad cheerleaders with delightful legs
were on offer both before the game and at half
time. Surpassed Gullys Girls by some distance
unfortunately. 9/10
|
| Friendliness
of Locals: |
As
we found last year, Doncaster fans are
particularly friendly, as those we spoke to
enquired about our new ground and other issues
surrounding the club. 8/10
|
| Standard
of Local Females: |
Yorkshire
has long been established by the Crocs as a
breeding ground of some of the finest women in
the country, and once again we were delighted
with the specimens on offer, including one very
hot programme seller. 8/10
|
| Steward
Rating: |
Very
friendly, especially in their assistance with
our erection. 8/10
|
| Flag
Attention: |
The
flag was positioned over a set of disused seats
that provided segregation between home and away
fans. Unfortunately, we managed to tie it at an
angle so that it faced away from the pitch, but
the stewards were fond of the pink seagull. 5/10
|
| Match
Report: |
A
cold night in Yorkshire saw Brighton and
Doncaster cancel each other out to produce a 0-0
bore draw in their first meeting at the Keepmoat
Stadium. Doncasters nice passing game proved
ineffective, while the visitors hit and hope
tactics didn't threaten Doncaster much either.
The best chance fell to Joel Lynch, who saw his
header well saved by Neil Sullivan

| Thought
of the Day: |
If
you met an attractive black girl who you wanted
to sleep with, but wished to make her white
beforehand, what would be the best substance out
of talcum powder, tippex or emoltion?
