Doncaster-born defender Sam Hird joined the Club following a successful loan spell from previous club Leeds United, signing permanently in July 2007.
The young central defender, who spent early days of his career with Aston Villa, was a squad player in his early months at the Rovers, however a loan spell at Grimsby Town proved fruitful and Hird played a vital part in the final months of the League One campaign - starting against Leeds United in the League One Play-Off Final at Wembley.
Hird earlier stated that he would have taken playing for Doncaster Rovers in the Play-Off Final against Leeds United over playing for Leeds United any day of the week.
In August 2009, Hird extended his current contract by another year, keeping him at the Club until the summer of 2011.
