Re: Barrow v Scunthorpe match thread
Great nite at Fortress Holker Street. It's been some time in coming but we look as though we've recruited well. Re: the attendance. We need a new stadium It's as simple as that. York doubled their attendances once they moved. This money slushing around the town development could at least be enquired...

Re: Kidderminster harriers v Barrow match thread
After last seasons regular sacking of managers I'd like to think Murray will be given a fair amount of time.
His perseverance with Walker and Lati-Fairweather is baffling. They alone will cost him his job if he keeps selecting them.

Re: Barrow v Yeovil Town match thread
There's positives to take from tonight definitely. Reid looks good, pity about the two guys out wide who were meant to be supplying him. The defence looked ok for an hour but wilted as the game wore on. How Harper didn't make it in league football becomes clearer by the game. As for set-pieces..we'r...

Re: Adam Murray interview
In my interview with Paul Hornby in the summer he said that we would be going back down the performance centre type route and are looking into having junior teams which would eventually progress up to U21 The 2026/27's ship sailed so we'll have to wait until next year/season now before anything mat...

Re: Adam Murray interview
What do people expect You wouldn’t buy a house built on sand and each manager will have the same problem the club isn’t ran as a real football club. Until these things are sorted and the club is ran by professionals the same result is going to happen and we will continue replacing the managers unti...

Re: Barrow v Hornchurch match thread
Suffolk's comments made above should be read by all of us. We need to have a reality check and ask ourselves where we are how we got here and how do we move on and improve. There's a terrible amount of knee jerk reaction on here, some of it, not for the first time and probably not the last of it, t...

Re: Hartlepool v Barrow match thread
Awful match between 2 poor teams but maybe that is because all the teams in this league are poor. However, based on today, I would be surprised to see either team finish in the top 10. As far as I could see, we have 2 big central defenders who will win almost everything in the air and give fouls aw...

Re: Paul Hornby Interview
Well that was a bizarre listen if ever there was one. He sounded quite smug in his mid-season one following Whing's departure and Galllagher's appointment. It was all stats this, players love him that. Didn't end too well though did it. Not so this time round to be fair. So plenty of lessons to be l...

Re: Charlie McCann
None of the squad came out of that debacle with any credit. But, did you ever watch McCann play, especially in the last dozen or so games, and come away thinking that lad gave everything he's got out there today? Far too many in the self-preservation society and he was amongst the leaders of that pa...

Re: Sam Foley
Do you really think Sam picked the team? Or was he just the front man as the board was too embarrassed to announce another manager in Graham Coughlan? Graham picked the team, Sam was the front man! I honestly think that he did. I could be wrong and you could be right but the club's communication is...

Re: Sam Foley
Great player Foley for us. From his debut away at Stockport which we won 3-2 to his last appearance, ever? But, and it honestly pains me to state, absolutely hopeless at picking a team and making tactical substitutions. Never mind thrown under the bus. Hemmings is most certainly not a league 2 playe...

Re: Barrow v Newport County match thread
The youth set-up needs a separate thread. Back to today's shambolic display please. Is Sam Foley the only guy on the planet who thought starting Hemmings was a good idea? Or did that cardboard cut-out Worrall also agree? What exactly does Worrall do for his money? Maybe another separate thread? The ...

Re: Barrow vs Walsall Match Thread
If Foley isn't injured, and let's face it'd have to be career ending one in this crisis, he's got to get his boots back on. No good having a player of his quality on the sidelines watching. Some pathetic performances out there today but McCann's was possibly the worst. Man of the match? Parents real...

Re: Barrow v Oldham Athletic, match thread
Gordon definitely one of those mysteries inside an enigma kinda players. How did he miss against Barnet? How did score that one last nite? Only man in the ground thinking let's get another straight away! Did he encroach into the Oldham half before the ball was played, did the keepers clearance hit h...

Re: Give 'Em Beans! Match Reports
Fair play to you, good read that. Summarising what we all witnessed last nite, so soon after THE event must've took some discipline and rationale. However, always room for debate. I had a ringside view of that penalty decision and all I can say is I've seen them given. There was contact and certainl...
