Does that throw suspicion on the manager and squad of players? We're they just faking it to get the odds up? XD

Well if I were a Donny fan I would be enjoying the moment but I’d also be asking why were they so bad and battling against relegation for most of the season.
What was the problem

An amazing run,I thought our 8 wins in the early 80's was something special, but to ho from relegation fodder to the play offs is unbelievable.
Good luck to them,no one will fancy playing them at the moment.

Flour, same Manager same players apart from Adelakun and the added signings late on, a classic being Maxime Biamou the former Coventry City's forward.

When I saw how many players Grant McCann signed pre season, it was a no nonsense 'get em in early' approach, akin to Evo's set ups. Something told me to back them early but, for whatever reasons and injuries it all looked a waste of time. We fast forward, all their players are fit, additions brought in to strengthen the team and bang! lift off.

Take a look at Donny's set up, it's a proper close knit club with many old player attachments that understand the fabric of a small homely club.
They've definitely got it right this season and good of them.

I thought manager McCann was cannon fodder after Christmas, & bound for the exit door,
but he has turned the side into promotion hopeful's, which is no mean feat.
I thought my £50 on em getting promotion @ 4/1 was money lost.

Hopefully they will get through the play-offs, & Woody & co enjoy a wembley win.
