Definitely the shoulder.

Agree, just need to convey that same message to the lads and we’ll all be fine

We look tired and scared

Nice place Rochester. Charles [SwearFilter] Museum well worth a visit

I wonder what he would have wrote concerning yesterday's debacle?

A couple of members on here have stated that it's a 'mentality' issue with the players. I have to agree. Their 'bottle' seems to have gone. Luckily, for us, other clubs in the promotion hunt, are suffering the same fate. Crew beaten 3-0 at home by Grimsby. Crawley losing to Colchester on their own turf. Nervous tension is now setting in at five of the top seven clubs.


I believe victories at Crawley and at home to Bradford will seal a top seven finish.
Time to 'Man Up' Barrow - show some guts and fighting spirit!

One small point about all the criticism of us losing after going down to ten men: if the positions were reversed and we played for an hour against ten men at Holker St, I'm fairly certain all the critics would expect us to win, so let's try and keep a sense of proportion!

I'm not one of those critics but expectation and reality when it comes to us v 10 men are frequently not the same. In fact, I recall a particularly embarrassing drubbing at the hands of 10 man Solihull (I think it was)

I remember that too and we do seem to struggle against 10 men sometimes.
