Things went from bad to worse for Doncaster Rovers as off-field pressures led to on-field problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Newport County came back from a goal behind to win a comfortable 3-1 over Doncaster at Keepmoat Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kyle Hurst opened the scoring in the first half with a deflected 25-yard shot in the 12th minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the break the visitors dominated with three goals in 15 minutes, starting with Priestley Farquharson\u2019s 64th minute header from a Mickey Demetriou long throw. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seven minutes later, a quick break sent Omar Bogle racing down the left flank, cutting back to Aaron Wildig who converted from just outside the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another Demetriou long throw was headed in by Cameron Norman in the 79th minute, putting the game out of Doncaster\u2019s reach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking after the game, Hurst said: \u201cIt was a tough one to take for the team. I felt like we were on top and then two long throw-ins, set plays, and it changed the game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think we went under – we kept trying hard to do what we do but it\u2019s very disappointing for us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The loss is Doncaster\u2019s seventh in nine games. Recent form and fan frustration led to owner Terry Bramall announcing a \u201csignificant financial injection\u201d into first team resources for next season earlier this month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hurst said there needs to be a reset over the summer, but the results in the next two games will help their momentum next season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not where we want to be,\u201d he said. \u201cWe won\u2019t go down but obviously we won\u2019t go up. If we can get wins in these next two games then that\u2019ll take us into next season with good momentum.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
