Games like this are fast becoming must wins at home now if we are serious about top 7
I thought we looked a little leggy against Exeter, and after a bright start we faded, so I was glad with the point come the end
Showed character as we looked off the pace second half
In my opinion Coutts was fantastic, he doesn’t stand out in terms of fancy play or mazy runs, but he does the hidden stuff really well. Multiple times he was there to cover and block, do the messy stuff, and that was needed second half
The 2 centre backs looked accomplished, and Hoole was very impressive for a lad so young
The big disappointment for me was Billy Anderson and Nicholson. Both struggled to take the game by the scruff of the neck, and maybe they need a rest tomorrow?
Exeter were a good side and we matched them, if we can kill teams off early we should be good enough to sneak into the play offs. Automatic is a step too far I feel, but you never know!
It was great to be back anyway, the atmosphere was good and the standard of football a refreshing change.

Absolutely buzzing for tomorrow’s game, as I am for all our games lately.
Good luck Joey and his never give up boys, you can do it!
The Gas are coming!!!

If you don’t get chance to eat before the game, why not enjoy a pancake at the stadium 😃  |

It was great to be back anyway, the atmosphere was good and the standard of football a refreshing change. UTG Finley's been the central midfield link for those two, w/o him performing at 100% those two struggled as well. Not sure about us only sneaking into the play offs, I sense it will be disappointing if we don't make the play offs now, assuming the likes of Belshaw, Taylor, Connolly and Finley stay fit. |

Not mocking them at all, but I’m genuinely intrigued, could tomorrow night see the lowest away attendance we’ve ever had for a league fixture? I remember a 58 in the last couple of years (never remember which club it was), for a midweek game, but this could easily beat it. Barrow to Bristol on a Tuesday night, hardcore! From my incomplete records the lowest I can find is 34 v Accrington Stanley (who are they...?) on 28 Jan 2014. In our non-league season Braintree managed a paltry 23 on 24 Feb 2015. |

Excellent stuff, cheers for that Bamber. 23 to beat then! We shall see. |

Think i read that the Barrow players are going to pay for a supporters coach for this game.
So expect a minimum of 50 fans ,so the record will still stand i expect.

Up till Saturday they only had 11 adults booked so didn't know if it would still run. Can't find any further update if they reached the minimum of 20 bookings. |
