The unofficial Barrow AFC fans forum

Seems as tho we murdered them second half but failed with a killer pinch. Too much up in the air stuff for a side that has cost so much to put together. Edmo still the man but for how long ?????? A day is a long time in footballI've just watched the highlights too and, although the Bradford winner was very well hit,I agree that the keeper shouldn't have been beaten by it. The first Bradford goal was very close to being offside. I've looked at it several times and I'm still unsure whether it was just onside or just offside. Certainly, if the video was an accurate reflection of play, Barrow completely dominated the game after the equalising goal but created very lettle for all the attacking. Several things stuck out to me. The first was a distinct lack of pace in the team. Although doing most of the attacking, the build up is so slow that Bradford had almost the whole team back defending before Barrow reached their penalty area. When the moves broke down and Bradford managed to clear the ball Barrow seemed to have no midfield as they obviously couldn't get back once they had moved up to attack. Consequently on the odd times Bradford managed a break there was an absolutely huge gap between the Barrow back 4 and the rest of the team. The recurring thymes that I'm seeing from the highlight videos is that whilst regularly having most of the play, the build up is very slow and the finishing abysmal plus the opposition seem to be getting very easy goals from very little pressure.orpheus wrote:Just watched the highlights. Well McMillan beaten again on his near post. Not good enough. He had nothing to do and made a mess. Thought their first goal was offside.
