I agree Jonty, the high press from the front players backed by Foley and Harrison is amazing. Actual enjoyment from watching BAFC…again!

Whitfields awesome. When he’s in full flight he’s unstoppable. So lucky we’ve got him.

Very much so, I bet Stockport are rueing their decision to let him go now given their start to the season!

Absolutely outstanding.

That second 45 was one of the best I’ve seen at Holker St in….??
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

The difference in fitness levels was absolutely unbelievable. Doncaster were out on their feet after 20 mins and barrow just got stronger and stronger. Some work has been put in by the lads the get in this shape

What was impressive for me more than anything was that we dealt with everything Doncaster had and we were able to step it up a notch when we needed to. Totally bossed that last half hour. I also don’t remember us every having such good squad options. Kenlock coming in for Brough and he did brilliantly. A very good side here.

Excellent game tonight. Fantastic crowd especially on a Tues (Champions League) night. In for a wild season I think.

Female steward searching a male under 16. Disgusting behaviour. Absolute nonce behaviour from Barrow afc. Just shows alesha Dixon isn't qualified in her role.
