They are the lowest ranked team definitely in the 3rd Qualifying (one other in a replay). The highest ranked team they've beaten have been Redditch United, who are in the relegation zone of the Southern Premier (level below us). There's no excuses with this one.

I don't remember playing them under Halom but we did meet them in the Wilkie era, in the 1988/89 FA Trophy (so the season between the one when we reached the semis and the one we won it). We won 4-1 away.

I am sure I went to see Barrow play at Atherstone years ago, and Barrow were something like 4-0 up after about 10 minutes. Strange game because although that 10 minutes was great, and the result was great, the last 80 minutes were actualy pretty boring.
I felt sorry for those who didnt sup up fast enough and missed ALL the action.

Not sure on your friends from Nuneaton and Tamworth and there verdict on atherstone being a scummy place full of scummy people. Sure we have a few of which you wont see at the game but im sure barrow has its share of the same kind too. What you will find with our support is its very working class honest people who will get behind there local team.
Yes you should beat us but then so should of rocester, redditch and coalville. Magic of the cup I suppose. How many do you expect to travel?

There's a sentence I didn't think I'd ever be reading on here.

Looks like feeding time at Dalton zoo.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.
