Next up is Grimsby as well which is another 6 pointer. Unbelievable run of games we have had. And something that doesn't get enough air time is the 10 out of 15 points we have taken.

I would have bitten your hand off for that in December.
And on the 7th day god created football

Massive win
Biggins had his best game for us. Eardley looked solid. Jones got 90 minutes. The goal was a well worked move. We looked mostly sound at the back until that last ten minutes or so.
10 days now to get at least a centre midfielder and crucially a centre toward to start alongside Quigley

Pretty solid throughout that extra 15 minutes and no last minute equaliser to concede yet another two points. Both teams playing like they deserve to be in the lower half of the league but a good battling performance to get the job done.

thank god we held on , Quigs needs to calm down and Angus needs to stop trying to get free kicks instead of keeping the ball , thought defence looked a lot better just struggled a little bit at the end but let's not forget lewis jones and eardley haven't played much football so they did well, at least we seemed to know what they all had to do, onwards and upwards!

Great result today.Thought Neil Eardley made a difference with his placing of the ball.Hopefully before the next game we will have somebody to help Quigley up front.A bit nervy towards the end.Overall a better performance. Onwards and upwards. Come on the Bluebirds. :scarf: :scarf:

We’ve played better this season and got beat... so, I’m delighted with 3 points! Makes Saturday nights much better!

Terrible game, fantastic result. Keep the same back 4 and they'll just get better.Eardley did well and will only improve our defence. MJ's intention is to get us out of trouble then look to play more attractive stuff, good start. Onwards and upwards.

Quigley is diving more and more needs to concentrate and his control instead of trying to con the ref every time he has the ball.
Well done barrow a great 3 points well battled doesn't matter how we get them onwards and upwards

Spot on result.Well done to all. Is there a specific reason pre match that we engage the sprinklers? Seems like a week of shit weather plus to me.But if it works---why not.Let it sprinkle.

Awful game to watch, but at least it wasn't side to side passing going nowhere. Eardley excellent, seems to be a few milli-seconds ahead ahead of some of the team, they need to practice set pieces and know where the ball is going. Quigley has got to stop diving (or going down with the slightest of challenges) then getting upset with the ref when he gets nothing. Why do we play struggle against 10 men?, wont be long and teams will suss this out and have someone sent off in the first 5 minutes.

🤔It brings the worms to the surface and then the opposition look to the skies in distraction to see the Seagulls that visit to feed on the worms. Clever stuff really!
