We'll scrape a 2-1 win to send us four clear, with Pilkington netting a late winner.

A must win game that will give us a 4 point lead and put massive pressure on Fylde against Tamworth on Saturday.

Stockport in melt down also. A good time to meet them.

Worcester really laying into Stockport today, slam dunked one of their players after a poor tackle. (Stockport video) (Worcester News Story plus video) Unbelievable scene. Sounded like a very heated game with both teams giving and taking a lot which led to that situation.

That is absolutely crazy.....and funny! Got to say though, I can understand why because that was a bad tackle.

danny hurst is a good shot stopper but i hope we put a lot of pressure on him at set pieces because we all know he doesn`t like crosses /players crowding him!.

think if we go with the right attitude we will just shade it!

3pts would be great but they're pretty good on their own patch. I'll go for a 1-1 draw.

I think it had about 4K or 40K (not sure which) views when I first saw it the other day, now 1.1million and climbing. They even showed it on MoTD2 last night which is probably why it has got so many views.

Hope Stockport are still thinking about that incident rather than playing football come Tuesday night. Another massive game (as they all are now) for Barrow.

A win just a win! Be tough but 3pts would put pressure on Fylde. 1pt would be good, but Bluebirds can come home with all 3!

Good game to win. See it as a draw or loss to us.

Jesus, it really is bad at Stockport..... Time for Haworth and Guy to attack the fullbacks.

6 weeks ago I thought that we had the makings of a half decent team, unfortunately since then we have gone backwards with area's that were once our key strength now becoming major weaknesses.
There are three areas that worry me, both fullbacks are struggling , one is out of form and the other is just not fit, ( how this situation was allowed to happen I really don't know).
The centre midfield is critical yet has been sh@t for years, Tunji is a good stand In but lacks the mobility required to dictate games , Churchman looks a good prospect but shouldn't be starting every week. Baker, Wilkinson, and that guy we had on loan all appear to be the same player ( comfortable on the ball and slightly creative but lacking power pace and any sort of aggression).
I assume we have no money left to bring someone in as its so obvious that we need to fill this gap, having said that we brought in Wilkinson ( when surely this money should have been spent on a different type of player ).
Finally we have the wide players ( or lack of them), we have no one who fits this criteria , Wolfe is an average winger at best, wingers normally have at least one stand out attribute , pace or amazing trickery or sometimes an ability to get great crosses in without having to beat man, I haven't yet seen what our wingers stand out attribute is !, having said that his attribute might be the fact that he's the only winger at the club. ( in the land of the blind etc).

This brings me back to Tuesday's team,
With the personnel we have I struggle to put together a team capable of winning ,
I would consider playing 5 at the back but given the form and fitness of our fullbacks I would suggest this could be suicide , maybe we could play 4 or 5 in midfield and a pacy powerful striker upfront on his own ( oh sh@p we don't have one ).
Maybe we could play two wingers to fire in crosses for Dennis and Glover to score a hat full ( nope, forgot we only have half a winger ).
Therefore we are left to play our way through the middle of the park which relies on having very good all roundcentral midfielders; do we have those players ? Hmmmmm
I think the answer is no so I would just pack the midfield.
Play Tunji, churchman , wilkinson In the middle glover and sharp out wide and Dennis up front ( and cross our fingers)
