For all things Barrow AFC. Keep discussions civil and fair, we're all Barrow aren't we!

The local Derby has arrived.

Post by 32mile_cul-de-sac » Sat Mar 30, 2024 11:44 am

Barrow backed by 1600 fans should create a fantastic atmosphere but as we know local derbies don't go to script, Barrow bang in form but Morecambe had their first win in 6 last time out after going 5 games without a win. Overall, 27 games in league and cup competitions between the clubs have seen 12 wins for Barrow, 9 for Morecambe and six draws. One change definitely for Morecambe will be Ged Garner absence as he is illegible to play against his parent club. Junior Tiensia and Luca Stephenson in contention for Barrow but no Niall Canavan who may come in contention next Saturday against Swindon Town. A cracking game awaits the hoards from the north, lets hope Barrow come out on top.

Stokes went off injured yesterday and is may be doubtful for Monday. Am sure Morecambe will be cheered up by yesterdays win but Accy are not playing well at all atm. Morecambe’s home record has been dreadful recently and they have now more points away than at home.

It’s a Derby so anything can happen. As PW is fond of saying - we just need to be the best version of ourselves. If we are’ I’d be disappointed if we didn’t get something from the game.

Can remember going to Morecambe and winning 7-3, 5-1 and a few 4 goals scored in wins. Always used to be a good day out and must have the best record away to them.
Saying that I’d happily settle for a scrappy 1-0

A point tomorrow would be good, beat Swindon and Bradford and we are in the playoffs. The perfect place to finish outside the automatic places is 5th, away first leg on the Monday, home second leg, on a Friday night, WOW! We need to keep performing of late.
