Look who put Wood into the position of CEO!

Hornby needs to face the music.

Too easy to make Wood the scapegoat. He’s useless and Hornby put him on the pedestal.

Not been as angry since Turnbull!!!

Easy to just blame Wood gives the board a nice shield but they put him there! They gave him more responsibility and they ultimately sign off on budgets etc....

Not being funny we know Wood carries a lot of blame here but its the players that are on the green stuff and their lack of graft, desire etc is unforgivable

1 win at home since Sept. 2025 when the leaves on the trees were still green.

Connor Brown, Josh Granite, Jason Taylor, Tom White et al. We were spoiled with fighters and battlers in recent memory who put everything into the shirt and body on the line. This lot are utterly pathetic, gutless, con artists. Taking us down without even seeming to care. The recruitment (managers included) has been awful. Got lucky with Evatt, got lucky with Wild, other than that its been failure after failure and that can only fall at the feet of the board. No fight, no quality, hell, no shots even! Seen better football in Furness Prem
We hate Carlisle United, we hate Workington too (and Morecambe), we hate Accrington Stanley but Barrow we love you :scarf:

We had an extra days rest over Bristol, but every team that comes to HS plays like the home team, from Barrowcelona to BarrowedTime

100 % Chris, the board have made monumental cock ups over the last 2 seasons and it's been nothing short of scandalous, I couldn't make it tonight but I'm incandescent with rage ,I'll probably get banned after Friday but I'm not letting this one go !

Absolute embarrassment yet again. They honestly couldn’t get less we already knew that deep down though.

Few lads at the tunnel ask the question of where’s the fight and passion to stay up after all it’s 50+ years now of fighting to be here… meant with laughs from our centre midfielder and silence from the rest. They can’t even bite back.

Soft weak individuals. Same again Sat

Does anybody remember feeling less connected to a barrow team than tonight? In the past ive left fuming about team performances but tonight I just feel numb. Boos from those that stayed but everyone else clearing out shows the disconnect. Very few clapping players off and honestly they don't deserve a single clap tonight. The popular side bar a few on half way didnt even bother shouting or getting the players going, we sinply see no effort and thats the most worrying part for me. They don't want to fight for us, and the fans can see it a mile off. Only going one way sadly

The club lack leadership, a board who are totally oblivious to what's needed in league 2 , we're incapable of picking a decent manager and take too long to make a decision to sack them and then appoint Gallagher let him F**k up the transfer window, then sack him !
I could go on but I'm now like half this team why should I bother!

Poor first touch
No desire
Lacking ideas
Second to the ball
Easily pushed off
Played it like a nothing game
Only one team wanted it
Perfect conditions v southern (soz northern) softies

Not a good recipe for a six pointer.

Harper laughing at his own supporters

What a fan base we have - full of generations from all the decades all with their own stories, their own version of highs and lows. Volunteers from the days where crowds were in the few hundred. To be laughed at by the very people we are relying on to keep us in the football league.

There were people there that clapped that tonight.

If Harper plays on Saturday it is essential every touch of his is booed until he is subbed off for his own good.

Totally and utterly embarrassing to a man.

In Dino’s first interview he said that we might not win every game but his team’s will always give 100% on the pitch. He obviously hadn’t met this lot before he came out with that.

Ready for relegation now. We need a complete wipe the board (probably quite literally) reset.
Get in more local lads who want to play for shirt. Train locally in Barrow again and have some pride for f’s sake.

We've not shown any fight in a 6 pointer yet have we. Ive seen some bad barrow teams but never have i seen such little effort like we have this last few months
