Always manage to get it wrong

I look back on it all with great fondness me. We achieved what we set out to do and more which wouldn't of been possible if it wasn't for the great support we already had.

This. And still are, though we are down to the diehards. It's in everyone's hands, all of us on here love the club. Each support in their own way, as it should be. If we disagree, that's life, but anyone who follows Barrow gets my respect.

Lets not dwell on this Tony. You took the kiddy thing a bit to heart mate. And i have a close connection to Sue Boyle she is actually related.

Im off to have sex now, enjoy world of warcraft.

Hope your boyfriend is on form for you tonight then!
I'll actually be enjoying a nightshift so Warcraft can wait! I will respond to your request to be added to your guild when i get home in the morning ( after I've stopped off at your mams first!)
Once again a top effort with the grammar, well done lad

Dont mention my Mother! Dont use my family name like you have. I hope to god you work in BAE and my Dad can find you as you have crossed the line T.

Im happy to meet you to talk about ultras but not taking the [SwearFilter] out of my close family. Many nice folk on here know me and my family. I apologise if the kiddy thing was wrong but it was aimed at your poke at the young ultras.

DONT bring my family name into this Tony. Dont do the mother thing.

PM me and we can sort it out!

I personally believe toko is a moron, but I'm going to have to agree with him on this one. The original idea for the ultras was fantastic, adding colour and really raising the roof at holker street and also raising the morale of the team. But like toky said, too many young hooligan wannabes jumped on the bandwagon and used the ultras as an excuse to get [SwearFilter] and act the big men! There is no way for the ultras could make a comeback without encouraging the wrong crowds again.

Just to quote boyley, "The march was immense, 2/3 cars full of folk driving round Barrow putting flyers up to get people involved." 2/3 of a car isn't a lot boyley (maybe 3 people, dependant on the size of the car is suppose...)

Who says we need something like the ultras to get behind our team? All we need is to turn up in our numbers and let our voices be heard, starting at Lincoln on Saturday! See you there boylo (leave your che Guevara flag at home though...)

the banner for the Fleetowood game was pure genius - the atmosphere around the ground, when that came up from the Popular side (I was on sitting in the stand) was something I wont forget - it set the whole evening up - awesome night by all
FAN BLOODY TASTIC - WELL DONE TO THOSE INVOLVED IM THINKING AND MAKING OF THAT BANNER

PS could that banner be sold for auction? along with the others made? If they are not going to be used again? now there's a thought!

Pretty sure he ment 2 or 3 cars full of people.

Attract the wrong crowds? How were the ultras a 'wrong' crowd. Barry Pos was earlier saying how he hopes they come back in force. Pretty sure he wouldn't be saying that if they were the 'wrong' crowd.

Ok i understand what you say. Some folk join in who will be a problem. However the vast majority of us had nothing but the best interest and many many hours were spent preparing things and many of us put time and effort into displays.

i think you knew what i was on about regarding the 2/3 as mentioned. It was an evening where we created a buzz more than it would have been!

You mention about not needing the "Ultras" and folk just need to turn up, i agree to an extent, however before the Ultras we had that anyway. All that we did was make HS and away games more visual, vocal and positive. To go the extra yard!! To go beyond what most other clubs cannot do!!!

Im proud of what i contributed to the group and some of the displays were brilliant, i recall a group of us at 10am on the day of the York game throwing ropes over the top of the pop side and hoisting up the "smash the vikings" display. It took a lot of effort to do and most folk appreciated it.

Thanks for the "Boylo" one its new to me and the Che flag is certainly not in a fit state to pop up again.

Whatever your view, and Toko et al i dont want to carry on with any negative stuff here, we all want the best for the club and lets try and push to do this. Together.

:UB:

Fair play ruins, lets stop the negative stuff.
We've had a good win the other night, lets rock on from there.

Deal.

Sorry for bumping this thread, but I thought we'd need something like this for the new season.

Where have the chants gone? I know I haven't been going to Barrow games long but since February I've not heard any chants. Isn't that what fans do? Sing, shout, support their club? We need something like this again. Possibly setting something up like a Facebook page, saying something like 'Bring Colour and Life Back to Barrow Football' or 'Bring Back Ultras Barrovia'. If we had many people liking it and sharing it, etc, then people would actually come together with some sort of arrangement for flags etc.
I have a couple of friends - and not hooligans before you ask, who have flags and banners etc. I'm pretty sure other people do too, and with the devotion of many Barrow fans this summer I'm pretty sure more people would like to take part too! I hope some of you take what I said into consideration because Ultras Barrovia is definitely part of what boosted the players morale to help them win the FA Trophy - imagine stepping out onto the pitch and seeing that!
Come on guys...

PS: Maybe we could have rules, something like no swearing and throwing things, so its safe but fun!

Maybe that was a bit far fetched haha as I hear people swearing all the time possibly no violence and throwing things on the pitch and stuff

There's been no violence from this group and indeed any Barrow fan that I can think of in recent years. The flare throwing was also an isolated incident lid.

There is nothing to stop you creating a group and getting your friends to join you it could work out it might not. Good luck

I agree, and there's stuff under the stand you can access to add a bit of colour, help yourself.

However, that's not the same as an ultras group so don't use that name
