| Cant we just say we don't want to play today and then arrange it for a midweek when it suits us better when the injured lads are back? It works for some teams!

| Appointing a charlatan like Thornton was a huge mistake. The only ability he has as a coach is the ability to strip players of all skill and confidence.

| Thank goodness we had a change of heart and had a Family day at home. Obviously very well done Barrow and if they are the side that gets the second spot so be it. It certainly won't be the Dons. Listening to Noble during the semi final broadcast and it would appear that Toronto will be just as good if not better than Toulouse next year. Gawd help us.
For me it has to be a change at the top. Not holding my breath.

| The club is fooked, finished.
Who the hell apart from season ticket holders are going to buy into that crap.
Hardly a pay at the gate supporter will return.
And all of this was predictable.
I feel sorry for Thornton on two levels .... need I elaborate?

| Didn't make it today, but watching the Twitter feed, it sounds like a proper drubbing. Discipline has cost us all season, and you are never going to compete with a man down let alone two in the bin. Can't see what positives can be taken from today.
IMO if we don't get up this year can't see it happening without the big money similar to the foreign two have to secure promotion.

| Hall & Thornton have to take a good look at themselves , couldn't/ wouldn't sign a half back b4 the deadline.
Tom Carr played 6 in attack & on the wing in defence ,couldn't tackle must have been injured . Wright had a stinker & Kes was injured most of the game !
Discipline was shocking AGAIN.
What a disappointment , Barrow showed us to play much quicker .
Only plus was the try at the end. Try of the season.

| Well, the writing was on the wall as soon as the team sheet was (eventually) revealed.
No recognised half backs pretty much results in the lack of any attacking ability and puts all the pressure on the defensive effort which has been sadly lacking against all but the whipping boys in this division.
Presumably the late announcement of the team was to hide the deficiency from the Barrow coaching staff but as a ploy(?), it was pretty obvious from early on that it was going to be another long afternoon for the Donny faithful.
It's been no secret for a number of weeks that we're lacking in the key positions of 6 & 7 but what have the coaching staff done to shore things up? Much as I don't like dual registration, don't Hull FC have any players kicking their heals on a Sunday afternoon? Aren't there any local amateur lads who play in the halves on a regular basis who could do a job for us for a couple of weeks? Surely it's got to be better than sticking Kes into scrum half, a tactic that has already been a proven failure in the Hunslet match.
I'll see out this season, given that I've been daft enough to buy a season ticket, but while ever we're expected to watch dross and have a crappy league set-up which has minimal meaningful fixtures three or four weeks between each home fixture, I think I'll find better things to do with my Sunday afternoons.
If Donny are serious about having a RL team going forwards, there's got to be some serious changes from the top and the coaching personnel because it's just not working.

| Sure I saw someone rip up a season ticket up.
Was it one of many who bought the 4 ticket for the price of 3 deal.
