Crewe losing to Vale is good news, though unless we win today don't think it'll mean much.

Oldaker is off.

Offered new deal but turned it down to go elsewhere.

Not really bothered, me sen'.

Duffy's nailed on next season but players such as Colclough are being offered an opportunity.

Big nine games for the lad...

Great to hear the legendary SPIRITE chant of AUM RESHNI CHAAT echoing around Barrow today.
Peace, love and POSITIVITY to all SPIRITES.

Can see Oldaker stepping back down to one of the top end NL sides who don’t make it up this year. Oldham or York

Off to League 1 pal. Obviously we aren’t good enough for him.

If, by some miracle, you turn out to be correct, don't think he really needs to be crucified for joining a club in the league above, does he? I feel like he gets grief he doesn't deserve, but I wouldn't be particularly gutted were he to leave, either. So if he jumps a division (somehow), fair play to the lad.

Should always receive a warm welcome as part of the squad who got us out of the pits but I won’t lose any sleep over him moving.

If Carlisle lose at Doncaster and Morecambe lose to Swindle today we will have officially achieved priority #1 for this season - survive back in the league (Carlisle would be 21 points behind us with only 7 games to play including us and Morecambe would be 22 points behind with only 7 to play including us) They've also got to play each other.

Comical, almost, start where Barrow can't get a kick but under no danger. Then one error and we should be behind but escape !

Good covering by Mandy saves us from going behind. Barrow 2 attacks could have been 2 goals

Story of the season. If we’d scored in games we dominated we would have 20+ more points and be top.

With our injuries we have done fantastic, without them we would safely be in the playoffs

Gordon and Colclough not having great games. Metcalfe good. Got to get Pepple involved more. Banks has passed it to their players more than ours. Barrow have some tidy players to be fair.

Interesting re oldaker, fair play to him. Can see why he would be attractive to a few clubs. However fair play also to the club for not being held to ransom.
