Obviously that person doesn't mean to cause anyone distress especially not barrow fans we all know it is there to add atmosphere which it would if we were in the san siro. Also the minutes silence was one knobhead a friend of mine that was a [SwearFilter] for a moment WE! Them ooligans at the end of the stand shouted him down.Ive been going to watch barrow for 17 years ive watched barrow home and away religiously not so much anymore but work now prohibits that alot. some days we have bumper crowds and some days we have knobheads. HOWEVER!!!!!! not one of us was arrested yesterday! And I have never been arrested at the football either I was detained at stockport for 30 minutes when I got my wanger out(all fans around me at the time found it funny including two females who post on this forum) Not one of us had a fight yesterday! Nothing was damaged by us yesterday! We were welcomed politely by 3 different Landladies who allowed us to sing and shout to our hearts content. So apart from over zealous celebrations after the second goal and one person letting off a SMOKE BOMB not flare there is no burning flame! we can't all be tarred with the same yanawat . And i stood up yesterday and shouted to alot of you that I know personally made remarks regarding atherstone because I read them with my own eyes of "oh wheres the tmf hardmen when you need them" well you can't have your cake and eat it can you. you condone violence or action when it suits you ALL and chastise it when it suits you ALL . When were singing and creating the atmosphere yesterday that drove the team onto a terriffic win. The players came and jumped into the crowd of course its going to invoke that reaction. Something you wont know we all got searched yesterday because someone reported we had knives. Again not a single knife was found. We went to chester yesterday for a good day out watching the team we all love and we bloody well do too. Perhaps a little co-operation from both parties wouldnt go a miss. I will continue to watch barrow so will my mates. I am going to personally apologise for any distress we may have caused to any barrow fans especially the fan with asthma if you think thats what we really go to watch barrow for get your heads out of your arses. You seriously need to rid yourself of the stigma that because some of us wear stone island, drink lager, smoke weed and swear you think we are all knobs alot of you know us personally, talk with us, drink with us smoke with us, have sat next to us on busses to away games before. Stop trying to give us a bad name aswell!
That said in my opinion yesterday was an absolute belter all fans were great in my opinion especially you elaine x

As you probably don't travel to away games due to being sat at your keyboard, let me inform you.
I watched a group of around 30 or so get off the bus at the ground,full of drink,full of bravado,full of male testosorone ?. In the ground they were daft,antagonistic,stupid,but loud and vociferous in support of there team. The minute silence was spoilt by ONE,only one, the other noise was from his drunken mates to tell him to be quiet. During the game I stood alongside them (not through choice) they had been drinking (so what) they let off 2 flares that only really the police took umbridge too,but no harm was done, nobody was attacked, nobody hurt.They created a bloody good atmosphere,and played a big roll in the teams push for a winner,so yes stupid,idiots, yes, but believe me, it was no big deal.
On a football note, we look stronger,more assured, and pretty damm good going forward (and defending) cox is gonna take us on a journey I believe so let's all back Barrow Afc, good and the few (not) bad along the way.

But with bigger attendances comes more hustle and bustle, more aggro, stricter stewarding which as fans we all know has the potential to cause unneeded stress at football. *longshot* but imagine if we ever played galatasaray. Stop the world i'm getting off. As for bingo and moribund you probably think i'm a little tool but i'm actually alright me past all that but my mates are my mates. If you felt intimidated why didnt you talk to anyone or did you? I can guarantee if you spoke to me i'd of done something yes you probably didnt know who i am but you have a mouth and we certainly arent there to fight barrow fans ffs. I did move everybody to the back of the stand when i was asked not a great task i know but i did it to stop hassle. .

No I didn't speak to you or anyone else for that matter about you - when you say if I'd spoke to you you would have done something about - I don't know if that would have been a sorry mate or a punch in the face so I thought best not bother

And I won't ever stop going to watch the team whether we go up or down that's the nature of being a fan

You can buy me a cup of tea at aldershot on Saturday if you want

I've followed Barrow for 48 years.
We have like many other clubs have illiterate ,bad mannered people and when challenged try to claim the moral ground
Yes mate go ask the people of Bradford about pyrotechnics. Enjoy but nr respectful.
True supporters do not tarnish the name of the club
