MJ Williams absolutely different gravy in that midfield, Mahoneys best game for us. Now can we back it up……

Harrogate slightly adrift now - and with us, Crawley and Newport winning Tranmere have been dragged in to it too now.

Shame about Newport and Crawley winning but in a way the set of results today puts extra pressure on an already fragile Tranmere.

Report on game.
Then Foley's interview and Bromley Manager Woodman what a proper football person he is giving us the credit we deserved.
Really good interview.
In which interview he said "if I was the Barrow owner, I'd wonder where they've been all season", or words to that effect.

At the start of the season, it's always about us.. we've been crap but lucky too..

Let's just focus on us and hopefully do what we need to do!

We have shown today we Re more than me capable so let's take today's result, let's run with it and make sure that WE do what WE have to do.. we CAN do this..

We MUST make our 1 game in hand on the other 3 teams around us pay-off. It is crucial we make the most of it, ie: 3 points. Will make all the difference.

Cheers, think this is the link, it’s about 49 seconds in. Woodman does have a point there.

We MUST back them in their last seven games no matter what! Peace out spread the word.
Today was but a small step on the crazy paving we have endeavoured to walk on this season. Great strides need all the positivity we can muster as a Barrow AFC collective.

Unless the club post something, don't believe everything (anything) you read on here
On Radio Cumbria last night Adam said Graham Coughlan has not joined Barrow but is there as a advisor.
I've followed him when at Boston since before he got the sack he consistently threw players under the bus as desperation set in

If you look at his record at Mansfield 14% win rate,Newport 35%
and Boston 37% quite worrying .
Not sure why McCann is not in the team and why Harper is in is worrying.
On the previous commentary Dior Angus said he has a good football brain and not showing as he is playing with poor players!!!!
So he has joined Barrow AFC but the board wish to keep it low key. Understandable given where we are and what has gone on so far this season. Not interested in the slightest in what he’s done in the past as long as it remains legal an above board. It’s what is achieved from now until the end of the season that matters now. And beyond that let’s just wait and see.

:scarf: So what have we learned today? That, with support, we have a group willing to fight; a group who when they play 'on the ground football',can keep the ball and create chances; that we have people who will score goals given support and reasonable chances; that conceding late goals is not at all 'inevitable' if we all work hard to prevent them. Most of all we jhave regained our pride, and confidence and belief that we are as good as any teams in this league when we all turn up and work hard to support one another.We have learned that we have given ourselves a chance to survive, a situation which we have a chances to build on and avoid falling back into the wilderness. We now have the supporters back with us, and can see how much success means to them. We now know we can survive with performances full of effort , clear thinking, collective plays and a determination to score goals.So come on guys ...let's do it .

I think it was the players that picked the support up today for once. That equalising goal gave the supporters something to believe in and the supporters responded. We were unified as one until the final whistle for the first time in an age.
In unity we draw strength and that has to continue no matter what.
We do this together or not at all.

Tranmere not playing yesterday probably helped them tbh; 4 point buffer away from us is a hell of a lot at this stage of the season

Yesterday was the first time practically all season that I have left with that “buzz”. Every player put a shift in. If we get something at Notts County on Friday, I will truly start to believe.

If we can get something at Notts and MK Dons at the same time then we will all definitely start to believe! :D
