As mad as it seems, win our game in hand we are out the bottom two. …I am heavily sedated so don’t really know what I’m talking about.

Reminds me of a song “comfortably numb” Pink Floyd, is that the Barrow fans now or our strike force?

Just got back from the game.

Just another expected result for me. This team is scared of trying. Completely given up. Nothings changed.

Just an extra little kick in the [SwearFilter] for the way home

If we could win a game or two we could still stop up. I’d get Paul Cox in for the last 8 games

It’s not working is it we are getting worse a couple of wins is all we need the spirit of 1999

Stopping up on paper at least with a load of local players

Barky missed our big chance two mins in. We just couldn’t recover from the shock of that!
Eight more nails left to be hammered home, I mean cup finals to play.

We’d be better fielding a team of local players instead of these spineless [SwearFilter] who are robbing the club of a wage. Even if we pull off a miracle and stay up, these players are an embarrassment to the club
everyone is entitled to their opinion, deal with it

This relegation battle must be the worst in a number of years. We should have been cut adrift weeks ago and staring mathematical relegation in the face by the Easter weekend. Inexplicably we are going to linger until mid April.

We've all been through hell this season but how sad is that observation Chris, I never thought we'd ever be in a situation like this so sad !

Exactly, it's the lack of quality elsewhere that somehow is still giving us a mathematical chance.

Cheer up everyone, we've only got Bromley next weekend 😆 they'll be licking their lips at the thought of playing us now.
Literally 1 win and we go above 3 teams but we are garbage. Starting 11 changes every match and don't think Foley knows what to do team wise. I do feel sorry for him because I don't understand why the club thought it would work because 1 point in 4 matches ? But conceded 8 this week alone is awful. A couple of 1-0 and I'd still believe but we have such a tough run in.
Sadly I do now think lads are or have given up and its just a few weeks away from the inevitable.
