Proud to be Barrow AFC.
It is a measure of how far we as a club have come when the praise from other clubs fans are repeated over and over.
Our reputation is high and mirrors the efforts of the team.
Stating the team are the best they have seen is a great accolade too.
I am a member of the National League forum on facebook and to read repeatedly from various clubs fans how well they are treated when visiting our club, from stewards, catering staff and home fans can only mean we are getting things right.
This is important if we wish to increase the away attendances and help the clubs finances.
More importantly is the praise for the travelling fans to away games. I always regarded myself as an ambassador for the club when attending away games
and it looks like this ethos is being carried on by the present travellers. Keep up the good work lads and lasses and Keep the Faith.
Well done all.

Thumbs up from me Elaine. I know how hard you and others work at the club out of hours.
Re: Proud to be Barrow AFC.
Very well written. Such fine words, they give me the (chur)chills.
Re: Proud to be Barrow AFC.
I brought a new work mate along to the game on Tuesday night. His first Barrow game. He absolutely loved it, the Crossbar, speaking with other fans in the bar, the ground, the pitch, the standard of football, the game itself, everything. On the way out he told me I’d totally undersold to him. He said it had way exceeded how I had described it to him. That’s my fault, I totally underestimate just how good it all is. We’ve got a new fan on board!
So proud of where this club is right now and how far it has come. A long long way. Match day is buzzing, the atmosphere is getting better and we have a club to very proud of indeed.

Our club as a whole has changed many views on the pitch and us as fans!
We are not thugs, we are very amazing and friendly folk who are simply passionate about our club.
It's a great time to be part of this revolution and a great time for new folk to jump in the bluebird bus!
Re: Proud to be Barrow AFC.
what would the barrow bootboys think of this lovey drivel

They will be loving it of course! Especially one erstwhile bovver boy now a lay preacher in Australia. He truly does move in mysterious ways. Alleluia Alleluia.
We will foller the soccer, over land and sea...
