i'm certain the league will have something to say about that - get 11 of us on the pitch and do a camp "mauled by the tigers" dance,
They can look at it 2 ways - the first 10 mins are normally cagey and if they stick someone on the wing it'll have minimum impact. Take him off after 10 and they have 85 mins left (with injuries) to make up any impact of this mental decision. OR.... Do they wait until they're losing heavily and then stick someone on for the last 10 when the game is beyond their reach?
What if a rich fan of one of their opponents pays to do this and then spends the 10 minutes trying to score own goals / essentially making it 12 v 10? This can't be serious can it? To answer the original question I'd specify that I wanted to play against Liverpool, spend my 10 minutes playing off the front 2, running around like a headless chicken probably not even touching the ball and then as the board for my substitution came up I'd run up to Steven Gerrard and kick him in the balls as hard as I possibly could. Money well spent.
That must be a personal thing or an age thing rather than a collective thing. As far as Iâm concerned, Macc have never been anything to us. They probably did beat us a few times in the late 90s (but then everyone did) but I don`t recall ever having any regard for them either way; nor there being any collective thoughts about them apart from them being rightly regarded as a tiny club. Plus, Iâm sure I remember us thumping them in the cup and also seeing City comfortably beating them away around this time.
I think id put this question to dragons den. 'may I borrow £20,000 please' For ten minutes on the pitch in the lower leagues, in return you will receive 20% of all future football income subject to receiving a new contract having scored 4 goals inside said ten minutes.

Maybe so. When i started going to City (late Boothferry Park era) they always seemed to beat us. And we always played crap.
I think I remember more about City from when I started going than stuff that has happened recently. So, on that basis, maybe you’re remembering things more accurately than I. Those times seem a bit of a blur to me and kind of mingle into one. We seemed to lose to virtually everyone at some point and regularly. We had **** kits made by **** companies, **** attendances and I was well used to travelling to **** places like Shrewsbury, Torquay, Hartlepool, Rochdale et al and see us get brown dicked over easy.
I'm pretty clumsy; if I was the Hulk, I'd have to be wrapped in bubble-wrap to stop me annihilating everything I came across.
Really weird seeing this on Ceefax earlier. Me and a mate were queuing for a EuroMillions ticket yesterday, and I said if I won the full whack I'd be on the phone to a few Conference and League Two clubs offering £100k for 45 minutes up-front in a league game. Strange world, eh.
I'd pay £20k to be the ref,in the Villa v Hull game. It's the penultimate game of our season,and iv'e just got a weird feeling,it will be a premiership survival decider.
They beat us in 2011 in the League Cup - the season they ended up being relegated to the Conference. Definite bogey team.
Correct me if I am wrong but didn't the Doncaster chairman register himself once as a player and took part in a league game for about 20 minutes. I believe he was about 50 at the time.
I recall them thumping us 3-0 at Fer Ark in the FA Cup back in about 2002. I think three bald blokes scored, and something tells they were Tipton, Lightbourne and Whitaker. I could be wrong though. Also, that's a pretty disrespectful way to talk about a football club. I don't like your tone, young lady
