Battled hard first half and more than deserved our lead but awful defending lead to the equaliser and we just had no answers second half we were well and truly rolled over. Yes the referee was inept but so we're our players at times.
We can tell the players what we think of them herein will it help.our plight?? No not in the slightest, we simply have to stick with it.This is the greatest time of need since our owner took us over. There are points there to be earned, can we do it, who knows but I would hope we are not just going to roll over as supporters, we must live in hope. United we have a fighting chance, divided we don't have hope in hell. Luck changes at the drop of a hat in sport, I urge our supporters to continue to give their all. Have your say when the season is over by all means, but we have one hell of a battle for the rest of this month, it really could shape the very future of our club as we know it.
Totally agree let's have it.. We can still stay up it is in our hands and the 4 of the last 6 are winnable games
Our problem is we don't win the winnable games so expect to only pick up points in 2 games

To win 4 from 6 would be some achievement. We’re no way near being in that kind of form. I hope I’m wrong but I can only see us winning 1 of of them remaining games which will see us being relegated.

Will be making my banner for the next game, to show my frustration with the players. Hope they all fall over tonight!
We actually played well today Ref wasn't great again and we made a couple of mistakes. Jones was unjustly sent off never a foul let alone in card

We have what we have and need to get behind the team till the end of season at least, we are not down yet and till then back the team and sort it out at the end. I was there on Saturday and thought we played ok in the first half and should have scored early in the second half, ref never helped but we have had this problem all season and never had the run of the green. I can handle us getting beat if the team try's and are not good enough(this has not happened a few times this season)but on Saturday I felt they were committed but fell apart in the last twenty minutes. I was like to add what a friendly place Orient is and is a good awayday and hope against hope I will be there next season.

Don't think they are in the catchment area of the NPL!

We are all passionate about our team but to wish players ill is beyond reason. Yesterday after going 2-1down the tactics will have been to get something out of the game and send everyone up the park but you always risk getting caught on the counter attack which is what happened. The season isn't over till the final whistle at the Chester game so let's get behind the players for the final games

4-1 completely flattered Leyton Orient, a half decent barrow side battling backs against the wall would have won that game, and for the first 20 minutes we were ok, but once they equalised we just didn't look up to it, no real ideas or quality.
Very harsh sending off, i think the ref forgot he was on a yellow, hence the delay between the two cards. Not that being on a yellow should influence whether another offence is a foul, but we all know in reality it does. Don't think it would have changed the result mind.
Solihull have Maidstone and Guiseley up next two, should win both which will put them on 50 points and probably safe. Relying on Woking, who themselves have Guiseley and are already 4 points ahead of us. Need to win the next two, at a time when we can't buy a home win for love nor money. Can't really see anything but relegation now for us.

Actually there some really smelly ones. I once remember reading that Cardinal Richelieu (the scourge of the Musketeers) suffered from an anal fistula and that his minions would often "gag" in his presence. In fact any malignant growth can smell and other diseases particularly involving bacterial infection will give rise to a nasty niff. Its simply that, unless you are a dog, the body conceals the smell.
I simply used the term to describe the feelings expressed to me after yesterdays game by a few old lags that had experienced these events before.

Must be the first time Cardinal Richelieu has featured in a debate about Barrow AFC!

Keeper (who captained the side) was as much to blame as the ref 2nd goal was abysmal. That lad Cook wouldn't get in Holker 1st team. Holt should be donating his wages to charity if he's going to carry on like that in a Barrow shirt. Absolutely shocking contribution.

I think quite a few of us are suffering from anal fistulae at the moment, with the threat of relegation hanging over us!

We’ve not won at home since October; why would we suddenly win 4 out of 6??

Home win has to come sooner or later (though knowing the way things have gone, it will probably be v Chester when relegation already confirmed, just to really annoy us).
