Doncaster 0 Addicks 1 After what happened yesterday in the financial markets, particularly in relation to one (now not so huge) insurance company, today was always going to be a challenge, especially my ability to follow events at the Keepmoat. Despite spending the bulk of the day with people in my office or on the phone, I did manage to check the score periodically on the BBC website and a text from my Mum at the final whistle brought a smile to a feverish day.

Upon checking some reports, the result although welcoming and hard fought doesn't appear to hide the team's deficiencies, particularly those involving holding the ball or creating chances. Donny like Swansea play some sweet football, but only our third away victory in 2008 provided both 3 points and a nice lift to us all.

Cranie even got a decent postscript, but not Youga, although palpably it was a superb rear-guard action that gave us the victory and not forgetting Andy Gray's 4th goal in 6.

A word from Pards: "Bounce back."
