I'd like to think there'd be more than 1,100 at Holker Street if the soccer got to the 5th round of the cup. :shock:
It all comes 'round again.

Difficult to compare; that game was like us playing a team from the national league in the fa cup

CORRECTION to my original Post.

Undefeated at HOME in 23 months.

Slip of the tongue, sorry.

Have a HOME record like that and you'll never be close to being relegated.

The rugby have won 3 from 12 in league and challenge cup including two victories over Sheffield Eagles. Not that good.

This forum is about Barrow soccer.
I can understand comparisons to the other side will occur but we are not and I hope never will be part of the 🏉.
I wish them well but we are an association football club. Quite different.

Yeah, we got beat at home 2.1 in a must-win game to stay up, by an already relegated side fielding a few new youngsters. True grit.

Fighting spirit (in the last few games) and Woking being shit kept us up.
