Barrow put up a real good fight, even looked at one point like could go on to win it. Good day though and all the supporters from both teams were a credit i thought. Great day out

Greens thanks for participating on this forum since the draw was made. Hope you stay on here for some time. I didnt go but 20-32 seems a good quality game which shows how good Barrow are becoming in NL1 and how far they have come.

Fantastic atmosphere, and a great group of fans - hopefully that performance will see their attendances increase. A bunch I was chatting with on the way out said they were unlucky not to beat us, and I had to agree with that!

Wonderful day out! Great ground :doz: great fans (both) and sunny too! Not sure about how good we were and whether we deserved to win :( BUT-have to say I was choked when we clapped and sang Barrow at the end. Fantastic Wigan fans you were all great! :D

Not a good performance from Wigan. Barrow were far more inventive and highly committed in their performance. I thought both their half backs and number 12 Ostler played particularly well. They gave us plenty of problems keeping the ball alive and a number of our players just didn't stand up and be counted today. Doesn't augur well fior Saints though at least we were able to give a couple of key players a rest.
Brilliant fans at Barrow and Craven Park is much like it was last time I went some 20 years ago. Going for a pee is like Knowsley Road - ancient and stinks. A great day out and hope that Barrow can use today's performance as a stepping stone to better things.
