Barrow v Scunthorpe match thread

It comes down to online marketing but, sadly, the club is full of people that went to school before computers existed.

To be fair the online marketing by the club is greatly and noticeably improved this season. Upcoming games both home and away coach travel hospitality at games are regularly promoted online by the club way more than previously

Come and see us in the Trust office on the weekend and and we’ll give you a load of fixture cards for your friends so they don’t need to ask you all the time.

It was a superbly helpful whilst amusing retort indeed from Richard.

Excuse my ignorance, but where will I find the away coach travel arrangements?

we got less cards than Scunthorpe

Thats not the point I'm making. 80 and 85 minutes on a yellow is a risk, especially with the way we play.

Didn’t seem to do us any harm on Tuesday. Looks like another imaginary problem.

Well we had free milk and were allowed to run across the pitch before kick off to the end the Ziggers were attacking!

I think last season and the poor start this season put people off.
There is also financial constraints on people.
The no cash on the gate will put some off.

Yes they are improving, the way to get the gates up is to continue in this vain and importantly have a good cup run.

Suprising how many turn up if drawn against a Premier League team.
Really doing well just have to continue and they will come.

wish I had your optimism.

Don't you go accusing Pedro of optimism!

Without going into new ground debate, atmosphere at HS can be very flat. There’s no denying that. Fans likely to return to be part of a big match day atmosphere. If we could create half the atmosphere at home matches as I know our away fans do then that creates something fans want to come back to.

I’ve actually thought the atmosphere has been better so far this season than usual; lads in the HS End been giving it a go

To be fair there’s quite a good atmosphere in the main stand best it’s been for years, it’s also nice to see the players and manager recognising this as well.

Not everyone uses Facebook and there is nowhere on bafc main page where you can buy away tickets and book a bus together. I can't find it if there is it would be much better if there was

It's also on the clubs Instagram account and X account so three different social media accounts have away match travel info. Rightly or wrongly join one or miss out its 2026 now.

Fixtures are also in the sports pages of daily newspapers. Does the Evening Mail still do a preview of the match on a Friday night? I think even the majority of the free school milk generation have a smart phone and/ or an iPad or computer. You would have to be a cave dwelling hermit to be unable to find out whether “the soccer” were playing at home on a Saturday or Tuesday night.
