“No,” Hull boss Liam Rosenior said questioned if he could sum up his feelings, as per Hull Daily Mail. “It was unacceptable. It’s the first time I’ve felt like this since I’ve been manager of the football club and it will be the last time, I can’t put into words what I saw. A lack of movement, a lack of desire, it’s everything I don’t want to see in a team what happened tonight. Credit to Grant, credit to Doncaster, but for us, we’ve got a lot to work on very, very quickly.
“I’m not going to hide behind the changes and the minutes we (the players) need or things like that because as a group, we provide ourselves on the values and culture fo what we’re trying to create, and I didn’t see any of it today and that’s the thing that upsets me the most.
“I’ll be honest, I didn’t see it coming. That’s why I trusted the players to make the changes I did, because in training they show me every day in terms of their work ethic, their energy and their application and their support of the players who were starting the game.
“To see that, and to be in the stand as well, it was the longest 90 minutes of my career by a mile, watching a game of football, being involved in football, sitting up there and not being able to affect anything, it was a tough one tonight, it was a tough one to take.
“Now we’ll see what I’m made of, what the group are made of and I already cannot wait for Saturday, I can’t wait.
“Deserved,” he said on the boos. “The performance hurts. The boos and the jeers are from our own doing, from my own doing and I say us, we’re in this together.
“I’m never going to throw the players under the bus, I’m not going to single out individuals in front of you, I know what needs to be done and it will be done.
“I’m telling you we’re working really hard on how to strengthen the squad, but right now, we deserved to be booed and jeered for that performance, I’m not going to hide behind that.
“Let’s make sure that on Saturday that doesn’t happen again.”
“I thought we were excellent,” Donny boss Grant McCann said. “Probably after the first ten or 15 minutes. It’s difficult to play against Hull because they’ve got a unique way of playing and you have to make sure you get the press right, the triggers right and the set-up right.
“I thought we did after the first 15 minutes and that wasn’t because we conceded. That was us trying to be brave and play and we got broke on.
“It was a good evening’s work for us.
“We came here to try to brave. We could easily have sat off them and tried to break on them but we got after them and I was pleased with the boys, in and out of possession.”
McCann told BBC Radio Sheffield:
“I thought we were excellent after the first 10-15 minutes because Hull are always difficult to play against.
“We came here tonight to try and be brave and I was really pleased with the boys in and out of possession.
“We wanted to win the game but don’t get me wrong, I’d swap tonight for three points on Saturday because the league is our bread and butter.”
