People are allowed to have their reservations - Exeter fans seemed to regard him as an absolute disaster of a signing.

I am sure we will have had a few "disaster" players over the years who have gone on to do well elsewhere.

Sean Mc Con-man for one

You aren't allowed to have an opinion on a player other than if we sign him he must be good!
If only that were true!! Certainly, in my many years of following Barrow, the number of bad signings hugely outweigh the number of good ones. Otherwise, we would have been shooting through the leagues instead of normally fighting against relegation for most of our years!

Some subsequently spoke well of Danny Rowe...

He's not even guaranteed to be playing. Seems a little quick to be spouting the negatives already. Just my take on it of course.

When is the right time to "spout the negatives"?
Can we not discuss concerns if we are linked with an absolute crock or a notorious bad apple? Do we have to wait until someone has played x amount of games before they can be discussed in a negative light?

Whether he's playing today or not, it's fair comment for people to say "nah, I don't think he's the sort of player we should be signing".

1-1

Romeao Hutton with the Barrow equaliser

18 players used plus 1 trialist.

looks like James Jones, Mike Jones, Luke James, Josh Kay and Zanzala were all missing and Sea went off 20 mins after coming on as a sub.

Nice to see Bobby Burns play the last 30 mins.

17 + 1 trialist - Hutton went off on 60 mins, but came back on to replace Sea after 65 mins

Mike Jones had a operation yesterday.
