Workrate was fantastic and showed today that there's little between us and a top 3 side. I actually thought we finished the game the stronger side. Just need to bring some pace and width into the side.

That ref though.

Anyone else stood on the popular side by the woman that was shouting absolute drivel every 5 seconds in the 2nd half??

A great start to the game with a Diarra goal and he was unlucky not to follow up with a bullet header which was cleared off the line. Wrexham got into the game after about twenty minutes and equalised shortly after.
I thought we gave them too much space in the middle of the park, but overall I suppose a draw was a fair result.
Makoma has got skill but I don't think he is ready for this standard of football yet. Dunne was my MOM and the referee was inconsistent.
I thought we were robbed of a sure penalty in the second half and if the ref missed it the liner on the trust office side shouldn't, unless of course they thought it was ball to hand. :o
Thought we might have reached the 2000 mark today with the away support, but nowhere near. Have to wait for the FA Cup next year and a good league side for that.

Dreadful, dreadful decision re pen not given- up there with when they got one in the last minutes about 6 years ago.

I thought we pressured them physically well, broke well and just about deserved to win, although between 10 and 40 minutes they were the better side,, Holroyd looks a player for them.

Was annoyed at their playacting and a little at Ady Pennock for making us give the ball back during this and hugging Jennings at the end- wants to read up on his Barrow recent history regarding that man and I couldn't give a monkeys if he was at FGR

But in the round, a spirited performance with both centre halves superb

Queues t bar a joke, keeping a proud Boxing Day tradition which has stretched way back further than the Cassons

If we replace Makoma with literally anyone (but preferably a proper midfield general) and bring two wingers there’s a half decent team there.
Absolute shocker not giving the penalty, as blatant as you can get
Would have hoped for a slightly bigger crowd but wasn’t helped by yet another poor away following at Holker Street

Said exactly the same to my mate, it was a dreadful, dreadful decision and both officials (the liner and ref) should be made to answer to whoever looks after these things as to why they both missed it.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

They came for a draw no wonder the Maccs put 4 past them.

I was...had to move out of earshot 10mins in

On the pen, I think if the shoe was on the other foot we would be saying ball to hand. Certainly seemed to be by his side from my angle...need to rewatch on the highlights
