VIDEO: MANAGER REACTION

Manager Chris Kinnear has his say following Whites’ 2-0 defeat at Aldershot on Saturday.

DEFENDER JOINS ON LOAN

Defender Bradley Barry has joined Dover on loan from fellow National League club Chesterfield.

A right-back by trade, Barry, nephew of Premier League veteran Gareth, is also able to play at centre half and as a right wing-back.

The 23-year-old Barry joined the Spireites on a two-year deal in May 2017 after leaving League One Swindon Town.

He made over 50 appearances for the Robins during his two years at the club.

In his time with Chesterfield, Barry has made 32 appearances, including one (pictured above) against Whites in the 0-0 draw in Derbyshire earlier this month.

He will wear the number 21 shirt for Dover and go straight into the squad for Saturday’s game at Aldershot.

Welcolme to Crabble Brad!!
