Peter Winthorpe Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 We seemed to defend well and seemed to threaten when we got into their half. A first try for Sabutey and some impressive play from Marwood. Why do they not get one from each side on commentary of a Cumbrian Derby.Ā ā· Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Voodooguru Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 So the travel shy Raiders can't even put a full game on. Pleased I didn't make the journey on Cumbrias worst road and I feel for those who did. I think we can feel a bit hard done by from our two derby games. Haven robbed us blind on the gate and Barrow can't see the game out. On the positive side looks like our lads had a good dig again against a championship team. Looking forward to next week against the bulls. Surprised the Jam couldn't beat the Wigan kids. š«¢ 2 2 The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet!

I think he'd just come on when the lights went out!Ā Good performance by the lads today. Our right defence was terrible with no Mossop but apart from that we coped well and the introduction of Kirkup, Stephenson and Key made a big difference and we started to get on top. Sabutey's somersault finish was worth going for! No predictions from me this year..i've been burnt before but it was good to see more attacking flair than last week.Ā Edited January 22, 2023 by homeandawayer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrow fans saying it was a power cut in the Hindpool area so not much they could do about that, if they had kicked off at 2.30pm they would have had it finished by the time the lights went out. just one of those things, at least it was a friendly and we donāt have to travel down again to replay the gameĀ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
