Barrow v Grimsby Town, match thread

[Big_Bluebird]

Grimsby were the worst I’ve seen since we came up. Awful

[mickmike wilson]

HUGE THAT....

[_bluebird_]

Feels like a big win today especially in terms of playoffs. Solid as a rock all over the pitch. Hang on the shoulders of the play offs and keep the pressure on. Sometimes better to be the chasers and those being chased

Delighted with the win, but disappointed that we didn't really control the game second half and gave a poor Grimsby team more of the ball than they should have had. At 2-0, I was always worried that the ball would fall for one of their attackers (as it did later for their goal) and then we would really be hanging on. However, we did enough to get the points and possibly conserved a bit of energy for a more intense game on Monday.

How can you be disappointed 3 1 without breaking a sweat with a massive game coming up Monday. They scored a fluke goal apart front that they never threatened

Yes, we gave them opportunities which we perhaps shouldn't have but at this stage of season, I dont suppose it matters how we get the points, so long as we get the points!

Mom Stockton for his two goals and some great touches, thoroughly deserved and what a loan signing he's turned out to be! There were others too that played their socks off which is just great to see!

Solid performance, this is our best 11 and it shows some of our interplay is absolutely brilliant, as for Stockton what can you say ?!, top 3 is still on Morecambe will be tough but win that and we'll be flying!

Gotts had his beat game of the season for me even without the goal, recycled the ball really well. Never broke sweat all game, beat morecombe and we are absolutely among the automatic talk. Mansfield on the last day looking more and more like the biggest game of the season

First time I've really watched Barrow on ifollow. Thought we generally dominated the game and looked solid everywhere. They key to any teams success starts at the back - just look how vulnerable Grimsby looked today at the back. However, Grimsby aren't that bad going forward so to snuff them out except for an unlucky deflection at the end speaks volumes for this Barrow team. How can anyone be "slightly disappointed" with a 3-1 win for your team!

Was thinking the same.. beat Morecambe and we might just sneak an automatic spot but keep getting the results and it will be out best finish in a generation regardless!!

Ffs, please get autos...not sure my heart can take a playoff..

And nice to see an attendance of just over 4000 - hopefully another 500 or so more Barrow supporters will turn up for our last three home games of the season.

Please, Radio C, it has just gone 5.45 and I want my tea, waiting to hear what Pete Wild has to say, and you are still going on about Carlisle. Must have had 35 minutes of the 45 so far.

Same every week and may as well re name it Radio Carlisle. Absolute joke of a station!

We could have done without Wrexham and MK winning.

True but they have some tough fixtures coming their way. The way we’re playing now I’m sure we’ll get a chance at some point to capitalise

Yep... Feel sorry for Adam as he is stuck in middle but jeez, Carlisle are down and out and we are on a cusp of something nobody could imagine YET it's all about them.. sorry RC but being biased is now beginning to [SwearFilter] a lot of folk off!!
