Got away with one there. We’re much better when Whitfield is on the park. I think Garner is a waste of space . We seem better with a back 4. Where was Spence ?

Spence is injured came off after taking a bad knock at Morecambe

This from an MK Dons fan on twitter.

"Forget tuckers mistake, the Dons were played off the park by Barrow particularly in 2nd half. They deserved to win never mind equalise late on It really is poor. It’s like they had an extra man. Apart from Harrogate that’s how all the home games have been. It has to change"

There first goal was offside and a blatant hand ball in build p and there second was [SwearFilter] poor defending from the full back apart from that dons were second best throughout apart from a 10 minute spell where barrow looked like they’d given up. Feels like 6 points dropped with that and county last week

The first goal was very avoidable if Farman used his hands to save the ball and not his feet to put it out for a corner.

Pretty sure we've not dropped 6 points.

Spence limped off at Morecambe
Once Whitfield is fully fit he has to be back starting games, out wide

Gotts was on a yellow card. Can’t risk him getting another and losing him for two games
So you take a player off every time he gets a yellow. Absolute nonsense. If 7 players get a yellow every team would end up with 9 players after 5 subs. !!
Farman was on a yellow, why not take him off as well !
Robbie didn’t play much at the start of the season but recently played a lot mins so ( I’m guessing here ) that the gaffer janked him to keep him fresh & being on a yellow just makes it more sensible.

Apparently 5725 in the ground 👀 would love to know where they were all hiding. Like rattling around in an tin can

Never ever write off life when it comes to springing surprises . . . . . a lot can happen in 3 or 4 minutes (as those who remember the Tranmere game at Holker Street a few years back will testify) . . . . .

Fantastic emotional commentary from Adam was loud & passionate, Blew my brains out but fantastic to hear, What a comeback that was.

Those calling Wild are either thick as or no nothing about football, We will get better & will be in contention this season I’ve no doubt.

Mmm, I respect your opinion Mick.But he's a young kid who was having a blinder of a game. Let's face it anyone can get a yellow or red in the blink of an eye. You don't take everyone off with a yellow just in case ! You can't run a team like that. It's negative. Anyway, a great comeback and rightly deserved.

Yes indeed PJ, remember it well.

After 90 minutes we were up 3 - 1 or 4 - 1 (can't remember which) and into injury time, so I left the ground and headed for my car at Asda, knowing we had WON.

Driving away on Park Rd. I turned on Radio Cumbria Sports and couldn't believe my ears when they announced the game was DRAWN.

It's never over 'til it's over....

Notts County took both their booked players on yellow cards off last week after 65 minutes. Its a very common theme in todays game. Wild did the same with Caravan away at Newport late in the game for fear of him getting sent off. He said as much after the game .
