Barrow v Sutton utd match thread

[Suffolk Blue]

Well there you go. The club should be celebrating a magnificent win and instead having to put out statements like this. Absolutely sickened. The shine goes right off from a magnificent performance and a great win.

The risks and penalties to Barrow AFC and the damage to the reputation from incidents like this. Absolutely sickened.

Sickened? There’s a primary word in all this “allegation” it’s a huge day for the club, Oldham game due to be restarted, if it is true , why should one idiot ruin it all for an entire town? Answer is they shouldn’t and won’t. surely someone who was stood over in that corner can clearly all this up

Whilst I share your frustration Jonty, we should probably leave that discussion for another day.. Our survival (again) looked truly improbable only three games ago so we should at least be thankful for that.

Agree though that whilst this a glorious day it hasn’t been a glorious season. A lot of questions will be asked before the beginning of next season. Just be happy for this stress busting respite.

Na, imo it was just made up by a Sutton player to break Barrow's momentum. Sutton had tried every other trick in the book to no avail and so-played the 'race' card as a last resort. (and it didn't work).

I was in the small araa he was pointing at, I'd like to hear what he thought he heard.
I can repeat all what was was being shouted at him, might not be nice but wasn't racist

Edited. Although others have quoted it. So, can still be seen.

Might have been it bit harsh in my comments after a few pints.

So pleased for the Club staying in the EFL it is massive and for the younger supporters many more seasons to follow the Club, the board have a big decision to pick the right manager for next season, before the FGR game we looked doomed 9 days later we are staying up, well done to the players for finally turning up the last 3 games can now enjoy the summer and look forward to another season in the Football League.

You have been very thorough in interviewing hundreds of people already to find out what they say about the incident.

As for your own view, perhaps the way you have addressed Jonty rather undermines your credibility in judging whether or not something abusive was said.

Also seeing our police officer assault someone like he did last week, then leave ground in the drunken state he did today, he's got no grounds to ban or
approve a ban for anyone else again.
Not saying he shouldn't get drunk and enjoy himself but don't harass other for doing the same. But if I or any other fans mixed both his actions in last 2 weeks together wede be banned,

There was no racist comments made i agree. But I find our police officer is firm but fair and i think he has policed matches well this season.

[walneyroad]

Who said the remark or remarks were racist? The statement that was read out on the PA is the standard one that is usually read out before each game. Everyone is assuming it was racist and yet nobody seems to have heard racist remarks.

[Jon D]

The Sutton player is a lier. Barrow afc should press charges against the player.

[walneyroad]

Presumably the police will be interviewing the player to get his side of it.

[boyliegladbach]

Presumably the police will be interviewing the player to get his side of it.

And hopefully the accused and them in the area.

They'll certainly be interviewing the person involved. I hesitate to say 'accused' as he night just be helping them with their enquiries.

A forum is a place where we can all express an opinion and views. Its a serious allegation that is being made. The fact that we are even at this again and the nature of the allegation is sickening, is it not? People care about the situation and it’s the second time we’ve been here this season. You can have an opinion on it too, but why resort to abuse at me as well?

Absolutely correct. You made a very reasonable point in a very reasonable manner and it is completely out of order for you to get abuse for pointing out the concern.
