Pell and Fairhurst

The initial loan deals for Harry Pell and Wayne Fairhurst are due to end shortly.

Pell came to Edgar Street from Bristol Rovers for a month. The deal was announced on Monday January 31st so 'the month' is up later this week. It looks as though his deal may be renewed. If not, then he's played his last game for the Bulls

Fairhurst was signed just before the away game at Cheltenham which took place on February 12th. And so his initial month will run out around March 14th. He should be able to play against Bury, Stevenage and Barnet before he may be wanted back at Doncaster.

Manager Jamie Pitman mentioned both of them in his post match interview yesterday.

"The position is that we have still got them here at the moment. We'll continue to keep working with them.

"At the end of the day we are dictated to by their parent clubs and we'll try as much as we can to keep them here."

Meanwhile it's unclear why Rob Purdie was missing from the squad at Oxford yesterday.

"Rob Purdie, he wasn't here today," was all Pitman said.
