Another good 3pts for Barrow.
Carlisle lost so Radio Cumbria will be interesting again

Excellent win against a team in form. Should stop any doubters on here. Sounds a great goal and performance from Campbell.

Just got home, seen the result. Sounds like the usual inquest going on at Radio C though!

Well done guys ...that is a brilliant result against a team who , I think had been on a good run before meeting us .

It is doubly commendable given the last result at Wrexham ...and suggests we have overcome any 'mental slump' that might have followed such a result ... Credit to the staff and players for that.

The victory was triply well received given the Mansfield result . Overall it puts us right back in contention .

Good also to note that the crowd was over 4000 as well which maybe suggests that people are beginning to believe this team can achieve things this season ... and that they are a team worth watching and supporting regularly . So ...overall ...not a bad day at all, I'd say.

First match : Barrow v Northampton Town : Sat. 24th Sept. 1960 ... won 1-0... ( which was nice )

Thought young mazeed did well. Seemed to get better and more confident as the game went on

Yeah tough game but we need to be taking our chances defence were immense although Chester had a terrible first half!, Campbell was back to his best !
Crowd were very quiet today!

4023 attendance, excellent given that the away end wasn’t sold out. Not a bad away attendance, but it shows how well we are doing to get over 1000 to Wrexham and over 500 to Crewe. We are now getting very solid home attendances, 2000 up on our average non- league crowd.

Good performance, we deserved to win, but can someone please tell me what Proctor brings to the team? If you say pretty much nothing (ditto Garner) you're spot on IMO. Acquah and Telford should always be ahead of him in the pecking order. I thought Mazeed was excellent, considering he hasn't had much game time.

Did you not see Proctor’s hold up play, lay offs, aerial challenges with flick ons? He probably does this better and more consistently than Acquah IMO, though admittedly Acquah is more of a handful occupying the CB.
