1-2 it was, Lancashire Cup. Lee O'Keefe put Holker 1 up, Billy Kenny got our winner from the penalty spot and I think it was Peter Smith that got our equaliser.
Told you it was misty ;) Yeah I remember it now, seem to recall one our players may or may not have been under the influence of modern chemistry that night.

The Holker OB match was my first away game incidentally, took me less time to get there than it did to get to FBS/Holker St.

How many of you are likely to travel to see yet another cup upset at the Snakepit? Id expect for a club of your size around 200?

Probs take around 100 down to that reptilehouse of yours.

Lot of dispair and bitterness around the club at the moment and Atherstone is hardly a glamour tie...

Enjoy your big day though :)

All i can say lads is yes if you look at the league difference you only have to turn up to win. Redditch and Coalville both thought that and now there sitting at home looking on. Atherstone have a fantastic team spirit, all in saying is dont take the victory fir granted or you mite get a nasty surprise.

Lets be honest... My 2 year old and my 9 month old would probably walk into both Redditch and Coalvilles sides. They probably had players who couldn't afford their subs that day so you got lucky. If you get lucky again you may get a late consolation goal. Anything less than 6/7-0 to Barrow and ill consider that a true upset.

You should really get them kids signed up then, some of the redditch lads are on 250-300 a week. Wonder why there dad turns up to pay to watch barrow then when his kids are ghat good as surely theyve inherited there dads genes. Maybe they have though and there real dad maybe playing at a decent level. Makes you wonder.

Very easy bait Cartman :D

I'm going to end up having to go to this :lol:

I've watched football in an awful lot of places but no-where that has been described as the most hostile place in Midlands Non League Football.

Can we save costs and put out our Under 18s? They battered Macclesfield so Warwickshire's answer to Guy Heffernan should be no problem.
