Behind closed doors

Reading what Ian Evatt said before about playing games behind closed doors - he said if that happened barrow fans would turn up anyway wanting entry thereby involving policing/stewarding costs etc. Really? Would you? If that was how the league could continue and thereby hopefully resulting in our return to the football league, would fans not have the common sense to abide by the decision?
Whether you would or wouldnβt doesnβt make you a better/worse fan.

If it was the match that could see Barrow return to the Football League, then yes, fans would turn up, even if only to soak up the atmosphere outside the ground, home or away. I certainly would.

But shouldn't the snatch squads be self isolating ?

They have already had the virus and have immunity.
Protective clothing worn too.

If Barrow could win the league somewhere there would be Barrow fans outside

Lucky you, the place is closing down before our eyes. People seem to have evaporated.

I wouldn't turn up, but I'd certainly buy a ticket on-line to help the coffers.
that could be the challenge.. try and get the biggest 'non-attendance' through online ticket sales we could.
