The bloke is an absolute prannock. On an absolute high after that.
Brilliant stuff, two goals and three points.
Added bonus is maintaining the points differential with Carlisle.
Spot on.

Will make interesting listening.
Even better - Garner got a red card, as well!
Don't let the old man in.

That game was lost mentally before it was even started with their managers comments about the “huge journey” and the forfeit bullocks, those thoughts can massively influence players motivation and commitment, but once again our geographical outpost proves to be one of our strongest assets 🥳

Garner got a yellow
It was their captain Dion Conroy got the red

I dread to think what they would have to say if Workington were in the EFL, as well as us and Carlisle.

Barrow and Holker Street at its best in the last twenty minutes or so there. Players were pressing every ball, fans were contesting every decision. If only every opposition manager could try and get his team beat the day before a game that would be fantastic.

Much deserved win that, we were the best I’ve seen us for ages even before the goals. Same again Wednesday night, downpour included hopefully

Loving hearing this. Couldn’t be there today but this is how the place should be every game.

Our midfield were brilliant second half I'll have to watch highlights but when gotts was fouled it looked a nailed on penalty, Tom White has made a massive difference coming back it gives Robbie gotts more freedom and today we saw him back to his best ,Swindon fans causing trouble outside!, their team didn't help surrounding the referee at full time it was a disgrace!, well done lads a brilliant effort!

Do they check these things out anymore? Once over that would not have been allowed. He looked the same as the others in the melee of goal mouth incidents.
The other week at a home game both keepers were in that fluorescent green Farman had on today.

Love it when a scumbag manager thinks he is charge of a BIG club and it all goes wrong

Absolutely brilliant performance today.The team seemed to have a never say die attitude and kept going right until the end.Things must surely start to get better from here on.Robbie Gotts was fantastic.If they all play like this on Wednesday we may even come away with something.It showed the effort the team put in as they looked like they were all done in at the end.The football today was a pleasure to watch.

Hopefully that lad gets a hefty fine and a decent ban. Imagine if he had hit Farman with it. Glad to hear the holker street end giving him abuse as he was marched past
