The Barrow Social

[McMark]

Danny Livesey also the latest former player who has agreed to come on the social over the summer

Any chance of getting Pete Wild on one

More chance of knitting fog at the minute.

Would be brilliant to hear from Colin Cowperthwaite a true legend.

I'll second that.

He’s someone I’d like to get on so will be making efforts

Question is being put to him via someone I know but been told that it might not be likely but we can only but try

We are trying to limit it tho to a special episode every so often as it would become too much hardwork doing one like that every week with us all having full time jobs alongside - all the prep you need to do just simply wouldn’t have time to do it for every week

Kenny Lowe will be the next one probably in a couple of weeks time, then Danny Livesey will be probably a couple of weeks after that

It was very enjoyable listening to Jonah's look back on things. I would have to think that this fella would rank very highly indeed in our 123-year pantheon of "greats" . . . when I say "great" I'm not so much focusing on ability but the whole package, taking in attitude and commitment. For me, Brian Arrowsmith, Wilf Livingstone, Ray Wilkie and Colin Cowperthwaite are names that immediately trip off the tongue when thinking of those who served us phenomenally well and Paul Jones comes onto that short-list. He showed great personal integrity in his time with us - something that's in rare supply in professional football.

Peter McDonnell is a good shout as well. As a keeper not quite as good as Fred Else, but a great keeper nonetheless. Did he not also have a short spell as caretaker manager? I have an idea he went on to do some refereeing in grass roots and I think he is/was involved in coaching kids in the Kendal area.

Listened to Paul Jones’ and while I enjoyed it I’m gutted we couldn’t hear more about Barrow afc. I think the last 20 minutes or so is what fans would’ve love to hear for 40/50 mins about them times in detail

[Adam29]

We’re looking at doing a 2nd part with Paul later in the summer if time will allow

We wanted to focus on the entirety of his career, just ran out of studio time

If you’ve never listened to the Barrow Social before (use it or lose it!) make sure this is your first one; fantastic memories. You’d run through a brick wall for that man

Just listened today to the Barrow XI podcast. V enjoyable. After seeing only one local picked, wondered if there was any mileage in doing similar but just for those who were local and represented the club. I’ve been following Barrow since early 90s and can think of a good few candidates

Listened to Podcast very good.
Fred Else waa my hero and when ge worked in the ysrd met him alot.
Personally i think Peter Mcdonald was marginally the better keeper

I'd love you to get in touch with Tony Field, I believe he is still around and lives in the USA. My Barrow hero of the sixties. Stayed a short time but scored that goal against Brentford in 67. He had quite a career after us eventually playing with Pele in the states in the late seventies I believe.

Hi Adam
When will you will be doing the Barrow Social?

[behind the goals]

Probably still shocked that Saint Pete was looking/talking to other clubs while on contract.
