Re: Solihull Moors v Barrow match thread

We've got three management team appointments right since Kenny Lowe. And Rob Kelly. Got to hold our nerve. We tried the revolving approach last year and it was cataclysmic Totally agree here.. we all want the same thing and that's a winning team. It's been a poor start but waving the white flag now...

Re: Worthing v Barrow match thread

I was at the game on Saturday, The 2 thing that let us down (In my Opinion) 1. was when we were 2 up we persisted with the ridiculous high press & 2. The constant grabbing, and shirt pulling which gave away far to many free kicks which helped their momentum, the amound of space behind our back ...

Re: Worthing v Barrow match thread

Three draws in four away games is not bad going and it is only the two aberrations in losing two home games ( one of which was a travesty of the balance of play)that makes our start look poor. Start winning consistently at home and keep our away form going and we will be playoff contenders at least...

Re: Worthing v Barrow match thread

15 am Wasn't the best watch by a king shot but away from home and actually "going for it" is a far cry from the walk in the pitch and wave the white flag like we did last season. In the last few minutes they broke and had a 3 on 1 they should have scored, what would you and others said th...

Re: Some things the manager does not do

Would rather have the high press and try to win games by simply scoring more goals than getting a one nill advantage and sitting back defending for the rest of the game that's for sure. Whatever manager manages at barrow, the snipers are always out. Is it just a barrow thing? Do we constantly just l...

Wasn't the best watch by a king shot but away from home and actually "going for it" is a far cry from the walk in the pitch and wave the white flag like we did last season. Pitch was bloody awful and should be banned, you can't play decent football on surfaces like that and yesterday showe...

Re: Kidderminster harriers v Barrow match thread

5 games 2 against newly promoted teams and we’ve got two points and still making mistakes game after game. Get your eyes tested Eyes work fine. Ive never said things are great and we are world beaters. Just an overreaction from most on here. Quite the norm unfortunately Have to agree.. if it's ten ...

Can definately see a half decent side,
So we just need to change the half of the side that is crap!

Easier said than done with existing contracts and presumably lack of new money getting in the way!
:lol:

Just need to start scoring goals. The rest will follow

Re: Barrow v Yeovil Town match thread

Jonty there's a fine line between adventurous and stupidly! If we were getting outplayed every week I’d be more concerned. We are not, but scoring goals remains the biggest issue. The only way is up Nigel! So keep smiling! Totally agree. We are not getting battered, we just haven't started scoring ...

Re: Our goalkeeper

Think back to the 80s and 90s, think back to the season we were bottom and made playoffs, think back to the trophy runs, the promotion season.. They were sometimes not pretty but the team were united, they fought and showed grit and determination! Show that this season and if it means grinding out ...

Exactly - it's especially quiet in the Brian Arrowsmith stand - and the Pop side - far too many passive supporters - get behind the team - make some bloody noise - no more football in a library please - a fortress full of mice - we want tigers , lions, hyenas - Bang on.. it's like we have lost the ...

Re: Our goalkeeper

And then when Murray mentions negativity running through the club, he's not wrong, we as supporters need to start being a bit more up beat and start doing what we used to be good at and that's getting behind the team and being the ones that help push the lads on the grass on. The games in the COVID...
