Saunders sets Doncaster target for Championship survival

Doncaster boss Dean Saunders has set a target of 30 points from the remaining 20 games of the season to secure their Championship status. Rovers are currently second bottom on 23 points - three from safety - and travel to fellow strugglers Bristol City on Saturday.

"I still think if you put 30 points on to what we've got we're alright," he said.

"We've got to win probably nine or 10 games. There's 10 home games left, we've got to keep the home form up and start winning away again.

"We beat Peterborough and Ipswich. We've not had much luck really on the road in the last few weeks so hopefully we get a bit of luck. Sometimes you can win games without playing well if you get a bit of luck."
