Sunday 09/08/09 v Barrow : Sun Aug 09, 2009 4:20 pm  

Gave em a game for about 30mins. Barrow played some nice football & ran us ragged in the 2nd half.

Luisi had a good game at 13. andy Ellis also played well. Well done Barrow & your fans !

And the Ref`s 3 or 4 forward passes he let go, Barrow were always going to beat us but the Officials had an absolute shocker today

Didnt want to mention the officials .

Stuck with them for about 30 mins but was outclassed.
The officials were pathetic again mainly noticing the things the Dons did wrong but not what Barrow did wrong forward passes a plenty and consistantly offside at play the ball.Couldn't have a game without officials but think they are here for the money. when you are struggling everything goes against you.
Have stated it before but one of the reasons people have walked away from the game is the standard of officials.Mr cummins does not seem to improve things probably it is time for a change and stop the creeps progressing before the game dies.Match commisioners must be a complete waste of money

Interesting that the referee greeted the Barrow Chairman thus in the bar after the game ... 'Hiya Des Mate all right'.

Not an accusation but a fact!
(and I am not on my own in witnessing this).

YEAH doncaster are absoloutly dreadful and thats what you will have to take, iv never seen a team as bad, on the other hand there are reasons and next year you can re group, hopefully get taken over and bounce back up. Haven were nearly down and out and so was Widnes but it takes time

Good Luck

I remember going to Barrow only a few years ago and seeing the Dons paste them in front of a few hundred fans, so what comes around comes around.
