Great result. New forwards looked lively enough to suggest plenty of promise there. Think Cooper must have told them at half time Colchester are crap get after them, we came out firing after half time and got the result we deserved. 12 points off the play offs……

Brilliant result to start the second half of the season. Well done, lads.
Adam was excellent again, particularly as he was on his own. Thanks, Adam, the best commentator I have heard.

Fantastic result. Probably worth a bit more than the three points in the long run. Barnsley bounce!

Great result, poor game but both players and support tried hard and battled away.

Good last 25.

Never, never must we rip the soul out the club snd go to play anywhere like that.

He said pretty much that in his post-match with Adam (who sounded a bit hoarse after his solo stint). Said both sides were poor first half but we played with more intent second half. Good interview from Adam, worth a listen as always. Some interesting insights into Cooper's thinking in team selection, role of Kay, substitutions and response to Colchester changing shape in second half.

Great performance by the Bluebirds today.Who would have thought it 2-0 away from home and from open play.it looks like Mark Cooper's plan is finally coming together.Let,s hope they do the same against Mansfield next Saturday.Onwards and upwards.

Yes listened to alternative programme when it switchs from Radio Cumbria Calvin Andrews on singing the praises of the club.
Adams commentary against Barnsley was raised and how good it was.

Nice to see some positivity I do not think the Irish guy on Quest gives Barrow much credit.

2 goals in an away league match, unbelievable.
Accordingly to Adam, Barrow had not scored an away league goal since the 2nd October.
