No defending that shite, how people can clap that off is beyond me. Embarrassing stuff at times, Gordon hand balling it after missing the ball completely, Carlisle's second goal, Rooney's free kick in injury, endless amateurish stuff.

Considering Barrow can't win a home game and struggle to score a goal it's hard to believe they are still effectively 7 points clear of the drop. What is it with playing at home? Even shit teams usually win a few at home. Barrow would be better playing away every week - stop annoying the home fans and more chance of points. Bizarre.

God awful again that, embarrassingly bad. Farman is a liability and worse than Dixon and we have some completely pointless footballers who offer virtually nothing as an attacking threat (Josh Gordon springs immediately to mind).
I think we'll probably stay up but I'm edging into a Cooper out mindset after not feeling that way for most of the season. He's making some increasingly bizarre decisions and it's been a weird season at times with some of the stuff he's done.
Really poor today and feeling very annoyed tonight.

Don’t be fooled by that late rally. We were terrible. All the build up all week, great backing from the fans and once again we fail to deliver when we needed to give the fans something to cheer. As passionless a first half performance as I’ve seen. Some players totally out of the game and not wanting the ball and looking like rabbits in the headlights.

Sums it up perfectly for me.

It is because they are set up every game to avoid defeat (often unsuccessfully!). Most teams have a go at home, get the crowd behind them and create some excitement. It is just not practical to sack Cooper (a) financially and (b) without someone waiting in the wings. Carlisle were luck that an old favourite was available. As someone said on post match, if Evatt was suddenly available then yes, but you can't just sack a manger with nobody else to turn to.

Absolute shite. If you can’t get up for a day like today I’m speechless, so disappointing.
Don’t see us getting more than 3/4 more points this season.

What the hell has happened to a Brough? He’s a shadow of himself lately.

Only positive is that sea actually looked good today, I'd be starting him over Gordon if he's fit to play a full game.

Our run in not the best compared to some around us. Desperately need a couple of wins this month, should have been at least a point gained today but for a totally preventable goal. Carlisle first goal was a good effort but that should have been their only score.

Chris Lumsden thought he was the only one to come out of the game with any credit for us, so that tells you how absolute shite the rest were!
