Molyneux on for Kay

FT 2 - 2 not sure what to make of that, after being 2 up at HT.

We seem to disappoint too often when we come home after some good away performances. 'Twas ever thus!

Sounds like they played very well until giving away a farcical goal just after half-time with an equalising goal almost as bad.

Played well today just unlucky giving away one of there goals away still lots of positives the play offs a step too far this season but hopefully if we can keep hold of the majority of this team an add a couple of decent players and keep hold of evitt we could improve again next and maybe challange for a play off place but this season has been a drastic improvement on last season

9 players out against a play off team, yes we let it slip but wasn't bad.

Taylor had a dreadful game today, which was surprising, and was probably responsible in some part for both goals. That aside, we dominated a play-off contender and had plenty of opportunities to grab a third. We suffered from having no real attacking options on the bench, but it was a good effort from a massively depleted squad.

Rooney hardcastle and young Reece were a joy to watch Jennings bossed the midfield and if we hadn't gifted their first goal I couldn't see them scoring but I really enjoyed the game nobody can complain about today's performance thought philpot had a decent game he just ran out of steam!

Had a stinker but is in credit with his performances this season
It's football

Felt more like a loss than a draw walking out of the ground, but all things considered not too bad, apart from two errors from Taylor, compounded by Jameson for the corner leading to the second goal. I like Taylor, but errors in defence lead to goals. His lack of pace shows up in defence too. 10/10 for effort always and hopefully he’ll be back in midfield soon.
First half we were excellent, and at half time I thought a win was inevitable. They weren’t a bad side, but I can’t remember them troubling Dixon. A ridiculous ricochet, a stupid corner followed by a free header did for us. We thoroughly deserved to win. Stand out players today - Hardcastle, Norrington Davies and Rooney. The new lad Pollitt(?) was impressive.

Ian Evatt sounded a very frustrated and disappointed manager in his interview. Wasn't there today, was it tiredness or lack of concentration for their goals, or one leading to the other! We have put a heck of a load of effort in of late with a paper thin squad due to injuries, it's bound to of taken its toll.
Good to hear that the crowd increased hopefully we will keep the u-16 incentive until the end of the season.

A great game of football played at a frantic pace. The first Barrow goal was us at our best, the Harrogate goals were us at our worst! Evo sounded really disappointed post match but there was so much to be positive about with that performance. Proud of them.

Absolutely - mine and many others' player of the season. He was out of sorts today, but at the same time, he's in non-league for a reason.

The lads behind me second-half thought we were shite, that Philpot was the worst striker they've ever seen (cos he only scored 3 goals for Woking), and Jennings was dreadful too. Guess people read the game differently.

Very frustrating, every time we get a big crowd in (was genuinely shocked when that figure was announced) we just manage to somehow mess it up. Dominated for 80 minutes against a play off chasing team and undone by two shocking bits of defending, first half especially we were excellent. Evatt must dream of getting a full squad out one week, we’d beat any team in this league
