Hate the rec Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 5 minutes ago, Death to the Rah Rah's said: 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 don’t have to travel down again to replay the game Heard someone saying it went off at training this week as well, someone been fiddling with the meter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were saying there was some electricity in the stand which I would have thought kills that excuse. 1 The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet!

Saw something about only one phase tripped, do if true then still having power for other parts makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider91 Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Was at the game today and was very impressed with your number 17 Kirkup. Big body, carries well looks like he has a short pass in him too. Centre Hurst looked a solid player too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grandstand would probably have a back up generator supply for emergency exit lighting etc 1 I’m not prejudiced, I hate everybody equally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The floodlights were back on before we left the ground at about 4:30. Town lads played well together & defence was good. All Barrow's trys were in the left corner which we struggled to cover. Meat & tatie pies with gravy were lovely! Edited January 23, 2023 by Nero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting that Barra cut the power as they thought Town were about to steamroller them and grab a win? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm yeah that's quite an assumption from what I wrote. The answer is no I wasn't suggesting that at all... 1 2 The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but thats the way to bet!

Left Winger Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Had nothing to with the Barrow was a local outage affected some of the stores across the road too. Was enough light to carry on think the ref wanted an early dart. Good luck for the season ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivans82 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Nothing out of the ordinary power cuts......just look back to the farce at the World Cup opener when the opening ceremony with the Kaiser Chiefs was held in total silence.......these things happen .
