Wouldn't get too excited, Barrow isn't a nice place at all a that's putting it nicely.
We went to the pre season friendly before Covid & we found the places we visited okay.
The exterior is Josie, a lot of the inner areas are not as good, suppose it's like most big towns and cities though, When I do visit I like to leave as soon as possible, I't's a 52 mile/hour and a half round trip from Millom, I've been known to stay for only 15 minutes before coming home :D , quicker by train but then you have to walk and end up on stuck on the wind tunnel that is Barrow station :lol:
We drive there.

I take the coast road turn left at Ulverston and go through Bardsea a pleasant journey.

Not for me - got a whopping speeding fine coming back from there when I was younger. I was speeding but felt they took the piss with the fine… never been back and that was around 15 years ago :lol:

I’ll listen in thanks!

Some tough exchanges in the forwards so far, and Nsemba breaks through but the move fizzles out

Miski in at the corner after good work by Mago, O'Neill, Astley and Eckersley.

4-0 after 33 minutes

Good sweeping move from Barrow and they equalise on the hooter, 4-4 at half time.
