Derby   0 - 2   Doncaster

Derby 0-2 Doncaster

Derby 0-2 Doncaster

In-form Billy Sharp grabbed his sixth goal in six games to set Doncaster on their way to a fourth straight victory.

The striker, on loan from Sheffield United, opened the scoring after John Oster robbed Robbie Savage and fed the striker to slide home from six yards.

DJ Campbell brought a good save from Neil Sullivan in response, while Rob Hulse headed over when well placed.

But Derby rarely looked like grabbing an equaliser and James Coppinger sealed matters with a low 12-yard shot.


Derby manager Nigel Clough told BBC Radio Derby:

"Our first 45 minutes was extremely disappointing, on the back of our last four performances and results.

"When you put such a poor one in, and give a goal away as we did, it makes it extremely difficult to get anything out of the game.

"There's no excuse for not doing the basic things right. That is the reason we didn't win the game."

Doncaster boss Sean O'Driscoll on Billy Sharp:

"He's here until the end of the season unless Sheffield United get an offer to sell him, they accept and Billy decides he wants to move.

"I would love to make it a permanent move but any bid I put in would have to have a couple of noughts added on to get it accepted.

"But you have got to be pragmatic about it. It's a win-win situation.

"Billy has got his career back on track and he's scoring goals for us.

"If it works out for Billy I will be delighted. And we will send him on his way and say thanks for the memories."
