His dummy almost took the eye out of the young lad stood nearby. Not a steward to be seen or when they threw the flare on the pitch or the pitch invasion after they scored.

Brilliant win today not a great first half but in the end what a finish, how the ref didn`t give Crichlow a second yellow following the foul on Gordon is baffling, the never say die attitude from the players is fantastic, keep Ben Whitfield fit what a great signing even Gordon looks far better under Wild, Ray injury not to bad, all in all a great day to be a Barrow fan.

In Wilds interview said Ray turned his ankle not much swelling, you must know better.

Was if Foley who raced back and took the ball off Cookie who then flounced big style, It’s that type of commitment that wins you games as he made up sooo much space to make sure he sniffed out any chance.

Limped out in front of us in fan zone

Great win again
But biggest plus for me is Mclellan thrown in at right back last week, in early today, the lad is excellant.
Our other loan Neil is the same. We have two brilliant prospects.

IfI’m wrong I’ll be more than happy to apologise. For information you don’t tend to get swelling with a break. More so with a fracture.

Hopefully it`s not to serious, if he was seen limping after the game, that`s well over 2 hours after the injury, did he go to the Hospital.

Agree two very good loan deals.

For all the folk who are writing us off or backed us to go down, get it right up ye.

Early days but we have plenty heart and organisation. Brilliant atmosphere and great to share with family. Thought front 3 and Foley immense.

A wee moan. Is it beyond the wit of parents to stop their offspring standing in front of folk in wheelchairs? Not hard is it?

Anyway, cracking day.

Neal was my MoM today he was superb. Got about the park, picked up a load of second balls, played it simple when in possession looks a real find, reminds me a lot of Ryan Yates and look how he's turned out. Fair play to Wild so far he's got all the decisions right, I'm intrigued to see what CF we sign and who leaves the squad as he stated in his post match interview on BBC Radio Cumbria.

Better manager, better squad and better results, but I didn't expect six points from those two opening games. Long may it continue.

Is that the first time he hasn't been subbed against Barrow? Great ploy by Hughes - put him on late so he doesn't have time to be sufficiently rubbish to have to be subbed.

I am sorry that I didn't notice the tantrum. Perhaps it will feature soon on ITV4.

As good a day at HS that I can remember. Toe to toe with a favourite for promotion and coming out on top. Great heart, organisation and skill. All on show in Barrow.

*SPOILER ALERT* Hate to be the bearer of bad news to you, but please take it from someone who reports on X-rays for a living…a break (layman’s terminology) and a fracture (medical terminology) are the same thing.

Really surprised that our game is one of the very last on ITV's highlights show. 5 goal thriller - would have expected to be in the first couple. Seems to be a bit of a shambles now though with tech issues
