We absolutely must win on Saturday. All the players know what is needed.
If they don`t know by now then we`ve had it !, come on stop defending the player`s it`s about time they showed something on the pitch because at home we`ve been shocking.
We needed a striker who has been used to putting the ball in the net. I’ve said this before, I’d rather have taken a punt on someone from National League or Nat League North who had been banging in some goals. Goal scorers will score at any level with the right service. We have created the chances but the players we have up front aren’t ‘goal scorers’ and have neither confidence or the composure in front of goal because of that. It’s not rocket science.Main Stand SeasonTct wrote: ↑Wed Mar 30, 2022 11:54 amWe were desperate for a target man with EFL experience and he was the only one available who was prepared to come to Barrow

I do agree with you that we need much more desire and passion on the pitch, I just feel Fridays a good opportunity to share constructively with players how much survival means to the town, hopefully this can help towards galvanising for the next 8 games, we might even come away surprised at how much the players want survival as well! As Jonty rightly points out it’s very much still in our hands and the 12th man could make all the difference, especially if it comes down to fine margins
I agree with the above. You cannot fault those in charge regarding funding but how it’s been used is questionable.Both on and off the field we we have been well off the pace. Poor managerial appointments. Training facilities fiasco, poor player signings and poor CEO appointment have kept us constantly on the backfoot.Rtw6095 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 30, 2022 3:52 pm My honest view is that Barrow have never settled into league football. Over the last 2 seasons we've been well off the pace of teams in this division. Whatever will be will be. I hope we stay up but if we go down it's because we don't deserve to be in League 2. The table never lies.
Into Saturday and for the remaining fixtures I will support the club and next year I'll be supporting them too whatever league we will be competing in.

And Hitherto lies the problem. Appointing a man to that role whose football experience is little more than local amateur football.McMark wrote: ↑Wed Mar 30, 2022 6:40 pmhttps://www.barrowafc.net/viewtopic.php ... 98#p466998
Would imagine he has been instrumental in helping bring in some of the signings since his appointment.
Scored one good goal. Gets injured a lot. Goes missing, literally. Our saviour.HenneysKnee wrote: ↑Wed Mar 30, 2022 2:52 pm I’m assuming those that want Sea up front have actually seen him play?
