Considering BBC say Notts Co. had 80% possession that would be a fair comment.
72.5% at the end of the first half and we still looked the better side could easily have been 1-3 at halftime.
We rode our luck a bit second half but they got the bit between their teeth and looked a very good side. Jones is some player.

Probably a good point on paper but it’s another 2 dropped from a winning position.

I couldn't listen today but checked the score when I could. When I saw the Notts equaliser on 45+1 I cursed! After that, I feared the worst, but was happy to check the final score.. Nothing lost in the table. We are slipping a bit behind in the race, but everyone is dropping points - including the impressive Crewe losing at home. As Pete says, we are having our blip in what he terms "horrible January" (self-fulfilling perhaps?) and I think we will improve as weather and pitches get better.

More than happy with a point with crewe and Mansfield losing today. Frustrating to lose from a winning position but to be 4th after a tough run is great. Stephenson lucky to stay on the pitch, not surprised he was subbed off soon after

FORZA BLUEBIRDS, for me that’s good day at the office as they say, Crewe and Mansfield lost and Notts County not an easy place to get points.
Sets us up for a cracker next week against MK dons. Finally going to get over to see a game, Crawley away, not most glam of fixtures but can’t wait for it!

He sounds like he's losing it.

Fans need to remember we are Barrow ? WTF it's that mentality again we shoukd be thankful of getting a point because we are who we are. We are 4th in the league with one of the best away records in the league- why shouldn't fans be disappointed when we can't hold onto a lead.

It's that little old Barrow mentality creeping in and the reason why we won't win anything this season.

I'm delighted with a point and I don't drink beer. I am just saying we won't win anything if we don't believe we can or have a right to. Successful teams have to have a cockyness about them

Upset we lost at Maidstone in the Cup, but in light they also beat League 1 Stevenage and today Championship #2 Ipswich at their place, not feeling as bad. Good on Maidstone. Interested to see who they draw in R5.

Another point on the board, can't grumble with that at all.

Didn't see the game, how did the new boy look and did he look hungry?

That is an excellent result ...and one that I feel not many other teams will be able to match .... Yes , you could argue that with more concentration , chance taking or whatever ...we might have won ... but the good thing is that against some of the better teams in this league ...we have , yet again shown that we are capable of challenging them for a top spot . ...which , to me is most encouraging ...as long as we continue to build ... our playing staff ( by improving them rather than adding more perhaps ) ...our supporter numbers ( and here I mean 'positive supporters')...and our general positivity ( see point 2 ) towards the club and what we might achieve . Well done again lads ... we are getting there. Keep it up ... What a season ( with more still to come ).

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