Barrow v Bromley
The question I would like to ask is are our players going to turn up tomorrow against Bromley and fight to stay in this league or are they just going to give up?The Barrow supporters deserve to be a shown a lot more effort and I for one hope they do start tomorrow.
It will be tough against Bromley but that is no reason to give up when things start to get tough.As long as they try I,ll have no complaints,but if they let the opposition drift past them without making a tackle I along with a lot of other people will not be happy.
Thoughts below please.

'Canavan has called on the players to try to find self-motivation from wherever possible as he contemplates the "stark realities" of relegation'.
The skipper believes that something drastic has to happen quickly within the group.
As you say Methuselah, the fans hope for, and deserve better!

Love Canavan or loathe him and yes he’s struggled as much as others within the team this season, we have to back him as Club Captain just as much as any player that dons the Barrow AFC badge for our final eight games.Sonofsam wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2026 12:46 pmAnd that coming from canavantheotherbarrow wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2026 12:33 pm https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/ar ... 2l4zx2n58o

We have definitely got to stop feeling sorry for ourselves though and roll our sleeves up and crack on with it as time is slowly running out and the only people that can ultimately change our form and put the points on the board are the players.

Absolutely Mark, I’d add to that one more thing though….we have to do our bit as well - yes yes, I know we have already but this one final push.McMark wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2026 1:37 pmLove Canavan or loathe him and yes he’s struggled as much as others within the team this season, we have to back him as Club Captain just as much as any player that dons the Barrow AFC badge for our final eight games.

Let’s not give up, the escape is possible. A decent forecast, no PL games….lets get a good sized vocal attendance and cross everything.
1-0 Barrow.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Another massive game. Bromley aren’t exactly free scoring at the moment. 21 unbeaten for them, nailed on 1 nil to us.

Re: Barrow v Bromley
Bromley a team of big lads who aim to win every first and second ball then work from there, up against our bunch of fannies. What could go wrong…..
Hope we get Smith, MJ and McCann in midfield

Re: Barrow v Bromley
I think they need to apply a few of the dark arts against these big lads.A trip,a push in the back a few feigning injury to slow the game down and then catch them on the break,but what our players need to know is where the goal is and make it count,then who knows what might happen.

Re: Barrow v Bromley
You’re absolutely right!! I hope the fans turn up in numbers and are in fine voice to back the team from the first whistle, we need the sort of atmosphere usually reserved for away games.farington blue wrote: ↑Fri Mar 27, 2026 3:48 pm The fans have a big part to play.

No one expects us to win tomorrow, so let’s rip up the form book, it’s 8 cup ties and 5 are at home.
And if we get beat tomorrow, so long as they have given it their all they will keep the fans onside.
It’s still all to play for. We can do this!! UTFB!!
Still searching for the Young Soul Rebels

Re: Barrow v Bromley
All the signs are there for a big upset - like the time we took on the mighty Oxford. If you are going - be prepared for the shock of the season.
