Thank you for those kind words sandbee.
It has been a long old journey with some highs but even more lows but we have battled on and Kept the Faith.
However this season ends it is one that will live long in the memory. For the way the owners, management players and fans have become as one and we give grateful thanks for that. It has given us hope that anything is possible.
As Paddy said "We're all Barrow aren't we".

I remember Barrow (and Workington) - with great fondness. I really wanted to get to Barrow for the first time since the 1970s to see you play Barnet - failed last season due to the rail strike and this season due to a bereavement. Although in truth the fixture last month was a good one for a Barnet fan to miss!

Anyway, I've registered because I wanted to say just how pleased I am for you. You lost your place in the Football League due to the unfairness of the Old Pals re-election nonsense ( as did Southport who like Barrow didn't finish bottom when they were voted out). Your current success has been a long time coming but I really hope it continues ( apart from when you play Barnet next Feb!). If you can keep up what you've achieved so far this season through to next April you'll be worthy Champions.
Kind words and again, even our rival clubs supporters are keeping one eye on what we are achieving which shows as a club we have come on loads over time! Thanks for that.
Nice but true words from Graham too, words that all of us would share too.
Loved the bit from.roma "Forza Barrow"
Exciting times but memorable too and for all the right reasons.
All the best to the greatest bunch of lads n lasses a club could wish to have.

It's nothing short of staggering. I also want to say thankyou to ALL the people behind the scenes who put so much hard work in, it was beyond belief. But a special thankyou to our brilliant manager Ian Evatt. What can I say that already has'nt been said. He has brought a smile not only to my face, but to everyones.
As a fan for around 50 years, I have never looked forward to games like I do now.And I have never told so many people how good we are and get there themselves. We now have a BAFC supporters branch on the Isle of Man courtesy of my 18 month, 6 and 8 year old grand children πŸ˜‚ Top of the league at Christmas with games in hand, not bad eh!
Happy Christmas to ALL at the club and fans everywhere, you are magnificent.
I need a drink now πŸ˜‰
Wait till you have been a supporter for 74 years. :roll:
