Re: What has gone wrong, Who’s to blame
We all want the board to keep paying out, wonder if we could find 100 fans to give the Club £10,000 to help, otherwise we are just dreaming that new investment will just appear, we are heading towards the NLN. I remember Bill McCullough doing similar many years ago. Then he asked for £500 and In th...

Re: Worthing v Barrow match thread
So just make signings?? Don't they have to have quality? I questioned this because the original team we needed this season has to have quality to get out of this league, what then is your assessment of them ? It might have escaped you but we're on a greatly reduced budget signing all these players ...

Re: Worthing v Barrow match thread
Yeah itsad Mall but Murray has made a rod for his own back!, constantly saying high press etc, then he talks about mentality and the players will come good, no matter how good you are as a defender if we keep playing so high up ,you're going to be exposed,it's at best reckless, with about 20 minute...

Defeat? I thought it was a drawLewisBAFC1901 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 12, 2026 5:02 pm No accountability or responsibility on Murray for the defeat listening to him it’s all the players fault.
He set them up to play like that , they got ripped open doing what they were told.
Bring back Ady Pennock

Re: Hartlepool v Barrow match thread
It got us to our highest position in over 50 years. With a certain John Rooney pulling the strings and scoring goals! We've no one of that calibre! Rooney had left by then. But it’s not the system that’s necessarily wrong, it’s the personnel. Starting with a midfield made up entirely from last seas...

Re: Hartlepool v Barrow match thread
Why did we not start with the proven goalscorers Rose and Reid?,Cameron wins balls in the air but that’s it and his record is poor but Reid and Rose have scored bag fulls of goals particularly Rose at a higher level.Cameron couldn’t get a start for us last year yet plays all game and when we needed...

Re: Well that’s it- thoughts ahead of the season
If we get a half decent forward and a midfielder who creates chances / dictates play ( easier said than done) then it's the playoffs, passion tackling, effort is 70 % of what's needed it's the extra 30 % needed easier said than done but I'm sort of optimistic 😉 We need the Non League Messi - now mo...

Unfortunately he is unavailable. Currently working undercover for the BBC on an exposé into an illegal betting ring that amassed over £3.89, whilst gambling on Barrow’s relegation.

Re: Missing Goalkeepers
Very selective. We may have been the lowest scorers in the league but we let in 78. It’s not like we didn’t have one of the leakiest defences in the league. You are making it out like our defence wasn’t too bad and our relegation was just down to our lack of goals. It was a collective failure. Is i...

Re: Missing Goalkeepers
They all make mistakes, unfortunately because of our consistent failure to stick it in the net often enough at the other end that put enormous pressure on the defence and we’ve lost a lot of close games. Lowest goal scorers in the league. In a better team he be a better keeper. I think he’ll be loo...

Re: Players we should keep.
As bad as they’ve been this season some of our players will be well above average in NL. Stanway, MJ, Smith, McCann, Rose, Whitfield if fit, Fletcher, Raglan. Would even stretch to Jackson and Shipley. Plenty to get rid of but need to keep some. Signing a whole new squad is a recipe for further dis...
