Carver only played as he's better in the air than Howarth/Pilks.

Either one of those 2 would have come on if it wasn't for Paddys Paddy

Dreadful football served up again, bizarre team selection, long ball and tinkering.

All 10 players put in a shift today....Lacey gives the team nothing if on or off field .Game we should have won imo.

The people who support this club through good times and bad and the ones I see at away games are a credit to the club
The photos I have actually show some prominent member of this forum, I'm sure they won't want them posting?
I actually agree with you, the fans that follow Barrow AFC are a credit to the club, but it's these willybrains that spoil it for the proper fans.
Sounds like you are talking shite post the pictures or retract your nonsense lies. The away support today were a credit to the club.

On paper it was and still is a good point but they were there for the taking (even with 10 men). Lacey is a liability and I hope he's shown the door in the summer. We could get someone in to do his job without the petulance. How long is he banned for?

Each team had few clear cut chances yesterday, still end to end football where we both cancelled each other out.

Hope you win the league as I don't fancy our chances against you in the play-offs.

Good luck in the future.

On a slightly different note, very impressed with chorleys programme and deffo think barrow could do with producing something like it. As well as the managers bit there is a captains bit, fans q&a, good advertising, facts page about the opposition but in the form of a numbers game I.e facts by Relevant numbers to said club. Just little bits but worth a read
everyone is entitled to their opinion, deal with it

If someone has already mentioned it then soz,but it seems to me that Edmo picked this team to suit what was a heavily used shi*e pitch.

I agree, they should be able to. Bad workman and tools?

Don't know how the likes of Brian Pilkington and Roy McCarthy managed on some of the cowfields we played on the sixties. But there again the middle of the field often resembled the Morecambe Bay quicksands.

Somehow, we coped, playing virtually the same side each week. Oh, and we got promoted.

That's exactly the reason he gave in his pre-match interview. His view was that the flanks were so bad they weren't conducive to creative wingers so he decided it wasn't the pitch for the likes of Pilkington.
It all comes 'round again.

Won't be many games these types of players play in this league then as every pitch is virtuall a cabbage patch! I don't buy this reasoning and was amazed Carver stayed on the pitch for 80minutes and wasn't replaced with some creative width.
