All home wins

Also I’ve just seen on Crusaders website that they have lobbied the council and attendance has been increased to 500 to allow away supporters who had booked accommodation to attend.

I was about to post the same but you just beat me to it.

Here's the link for our friends from Keighley, we look forward to seeing you on Sunday.

I agree.

[Rob Nash]

When it comes to a game like this I don't like to make predictions. A lot depends on how Doncaster start the game. Barrow have Ritson out but Shaw back. 3/4s will be fine. Halves will be fine and we're picking from strength in the forwards. If Taulapapa is on his game at FB then Dons have half a chance.

[fearnowt]

It should be quite an occasion in Colwyn Bay today, with our first home game in front of fans for 497 days, and the first League 1 game in front of fans in North Wales for 22 months.

It's been a long wait, and I for one am looking forward to it.

Happy home crowd so far too… 26-0. 

[mickmike wilson]

Lower crowd expect at Barrow today due to a few factors

Horrendous weather forecast, lots of hangovers from the Euro’s, Back to back home  games, way less travelling supporters  etc

guesstimate 1600/1700 

[Derwent]

Town 66 Raiders 0 full time

 

[mickmike wilson]

HT Barrow 12-0 but Dallimore straight red which seemed very harsh as it looked a genuine attempt at trackless, Yet a few high shots have gone in without even a yellow in sight, Going to struggle now with a man down for the entire 2nd half.

 

arm wrestle until late in the half where Jamie ( Raheem Sterling esq ) dribbling skills saw the first TD & a well worked 2nd followed.

Hope Barrow see this out.

How have Barrow got away with naming Nathan Mossop in today’s team ? He was knocked out cold last week and by his own admission couldn’t remember anything of the game. I thought that was supposed to be a mandatory 14 day standing down ?

Shame

[Johnny Ringo]

12 man Barrow are really taking it to Donny. 18-0 

[mickmike wilson]

I’m not one to slate Refs but….He seems to have a different rule book for  each team here, More high head shots by Donny go without a talking too yet gives us the penalty wtf Ref, Dally got sent off & several worse offences go totally unpunished??

 

Barrow 19-6 atm

True Im getting the same take as you on this ref , Donny look nothing special really a sluggish team with sporadic  flashes of skill, very lucky not to be down to 12 men. 

[mick wilson]

FT 31-6 

Can't see anyone stopping this JUGGERNAUGHT.....Barrow are only going to get stronger as our injured strike players return & add even more quality to this team.

Attendance 2005 is another top draw attendance all things considered.

As for this ref.........no more comment besides grrrr.

That’s a fair hammering .
