James Hayter scored the only goal for Doncaster Rovers against Leeds United in the promotion play-off final , " which was nice " lol :dance::dance::dance:

 

His dad , my cousin Richard , who lives on the Isle of Wight , left a message on my phone this morning to tell me he had a spare ticket for me . But I`d overslept :slap:

Anyway , watched it live on Sky 2 , so I`m well-chuffed for James , the team , and his family .

First time Doncaster have been in the second tier ( The Championship these days ) for fifty years !

 

Over the moon , my son !

 

Far cry from young boys in the park , jumpers for goalposts , mmmm ?

congrats bud

Thanks , mate :D

excellent stuff!! must be a proud moment for the family and certainly one to talk about in the pub!

Sure is , Saz :D

After he`d scored the goal , the commentator told (part of ) the story of when he scored the fastest hat-trick in League history : He played for Bournemouth at the time . His partner had given birth during the week , and he hadn`t had much sleep , so he was on the bench as a substitute for the next (evening ) game . His parents , Richard and Mary , left the ground to catch the Isle of Wight ferry , with about ten minutes left to play . James was brought on in the 84th minute and scored three goals in 2 minutes 30 seconds . It was in all the papers the next day , and my cuz and Mary had various TV bods interviewing them at home lol :D
