For those who didn't hear the commentary, the best line was from John Goodwin in mid second half: "At least if it goes to penalties, we will see 10 shots on goal - though not necessarily on target"

(before I am corrected, it is of course possible that a pen shootout can end before 10 shots - eg when we have missed the first three!)

I was relieved when Jordan smacked his in from 35yards

It would have been the most pointless penalty shootout in football if it had come to it

Great goal to win it. I suspect he wouldn’t have took it on if this had been midway through the match, which leaves me asking- why not try these from range more often- are we guilty sometimes or not taking these on often enough? Many times we’ll look for the extra pass instead of just going for it.

Nice one, I hope Mr Morecambe (wherever he may be now) would appreciate that twist on an old classic . . .

Their disallowed goal looked harsh. The ball came back to him off a Barrow head. Didn’t see anything wrong with it. Looks like it would have made it in without his touch as well.

Goody has a wealth of great one-liners!

Adam and Goody said as much in commentary - if the lad had left it alone it was going in anyway. Bit of inexperience, probably.

Don't think inexperience at all.
The lad couldn't have been offside as the ball ricocheted to him off Hutton.
He was only making sure it went in the net.
Poor late flag from the linesman (who may have not been sure who played the ball goalwards) and an even a worse decision from the referee who must have seen clearly the ball went goalwards off a Barrow player.
