Well predicted.

I thought if we reached half time without conceding we'd nick it, as for once the wind was a big factor. Very solid performance despite making it harder for ourselves.

I'd love to hear Barrow Aberdeen's version of the "crowd incident " he seemed to be in the area and seemed annoyed that an accusation had been made.

Delighted for everyone connected with Barrow AFC whether it be employee or supporter. It's not been an enjoyable season but at this moment it doesn't really matter as we kick off next season in this league.
As for the game the conditions spoiled it as a spectacle but it was the result that mattered and we bagged the three points. I wasn't sure about the Phil Brown appointment but I like the way he has us playing and the interviews he gives. A tough decision for the board to make.
Anyhow the trips to Exeter and Swindon will be a lot more relaxing now thank [SwearFilter].

A forum is a place where we can all express an opinion and views. Its a serious allegation that is being made. The fact that we are even at this again and the nature of the allegation is sickening, is it not? People care about the situation and it’s the second time we’ve been here this season. You can have an opinion on it too, but why resort to abuse at me as well?

Firstly we should thank Phil and Neil for coming in and sorting it out.
Fitness and attitude were lacking and they sorted it after a few games.
Secondly the players responded and showed their abilities. You have it lads so move onwards now.
Lastly but by no means leastly our Board.
Difficult decision to allow Mark Cooper to leave but it was the right one. Thank you for your insight and loyalty.
Now offer Phil and Neil the job. They will not us down .
All Bluebirds are happy tonight not blue.😅

Where would we be if Cooper was still in charge. Holding Scunthorpe's hand no doubt.

Well, I confess that after 3 defeats under Phill Brown, I was resigned to the fact - or at least the probability - that we would be relegated. I couldn't see where goals or a win were going to come from. I care so much that I was living under a cloud - a nagging sadness in the back of one's mind, that feeling that something unpleasant was going to happen,.

I was even happy to be doing something else on Good Friday rather than listen to our game against FG. My sister texted me and asked "are you listening or watching", to which I replied fascetiously "No, are we 3 up?". She replied "No, but 2 up at HT". I still expected our usual second half capitulation, so was delighted when I saw the final score!

What an amzing turnaround in the space of 8 days. Listening to Brown's interviews, it seems that he identified what was wrong,reorganised tactics and increased fitness, and while it took a few games to gel, it has produced amzing transformation. Cloud now lifted. Just hoping that this time next season I can feel a bit less stressed!

I'm afraid the racial abuse is becoming a bit of a problem. If we are not careful the fines won't be small and before too long we could be looking at points deductions etc. It's all well and good people coming out saying it didn't happen, they made it up, I never heard anything blah blah blah but this has now reared its head far too many times.
Back to the positives - safe for another season, well done Phil and the boys. :scarf:
