Will it be a Good Friday for Barrow? Barrow's resurrection under Whing has been amazing but we have failed to win ANY of our local derbies away since our return to the FL. Yes if Carlisle is a derby then Fleetwood must be. A big following from Barrow and hope our fans go Wild with hopefully a win against our old boss.

Fleetwood could be the only derby next year!

Their captain out for the season

Just announced 600 tickets sold

Probably closer to 850 by Friday. Hopefully more.

With a average just over 3,000 home fans that would be a remarkable effort.

If you’ve got five minutes spare take a look at Pete Wild’s interview with Fleetwood TV regarding the forthcoming game on Friday. It’s free to view and you can access it via the Fleetwood official website.

A lot of quite deep questions asked about his time at Barrow. If you are a wannabe psychologist, some of his answers are quite interesting. Pete was always an honest guy and even when he tries to deflect an answer you get little echoes of the truth that lies beneath. Good watch.

Mmm, that is an interesting interview. You can feel that it hurts him a bit.

Wow. Evidently some pain there . Wish him well but I hope he’s still feeling it at 5pm on Friday.

Yes - the words 'the owners and the Director of Football' were interesting, coupled with his facial expression!

He didn’t allude to anything we didn’t know . We will never know the nuts and bolts of the reasons he left due to the NDA agreed by both sides. His comment regarding him knowing 85% of the players because he brought them in isn't quite correct. Only 3 players he brought in started against Walsall and only 5 of the squad of 17 were players he brought in.

PW Very respectful towards Barrow- fair play to him no matter what went on. He's moved on and so have we

Bit disappointed he didn't say " bumps in the road " but at least he got " best version of ourselves" in there.
