They were both on pay as you play deals, and only brought in towards end of season. Schofield has a lot of talent, but was a scape goat down at Cas when face didn't fit, at cut after under 16's.

Like I said though he was a scape goat at Cas, and his confidence took a big dent. That's why he was on pay per play. Think he has a one year deal now see if he gets it back.
I was with Thomas Holroyd this morning. Very nice lad, with his head screwed on. Training with under 19's fully at the moment.

Really entertaining game today. Leeds took a good lead into ht though always felt that doncasters physical advantage would get them on the front foot if they stayed at leeds middles and that was exactly their plan in the second half. Baldwinson once again put big minutes in and lead as the senior pack member, lilley controlled and kicked well with Aston looking more involved than id seen before. The young lads didnt take a backward step and from the 19s walker and JJR stood out for me. Big metion to the 17s who will have gained so much from the experience, Keidan will be especially pleased scoring an 80m interception and showing good speed in getting his second.

From a Dons perspective have got to agree with Seth's analysis. Your young No 10 and 8 carried the ball well and were not intimidated by our much bigger pack. Thanks again to the visiting supporters, we lower league clubs need that support from gate receipts.
