It says a lot that we've made it to Friday before anyone has given a toss about this game...

They've won six league games in a row I think and unbeaten since start of October, but were called off last week at Gillingham. Would take a point.

The Morfuni era summed up. We'd now take a point at home against BARROW! (I agree, that would feel like a 'good' result...)

Absolutely damning.

I'm going to go against the grain and suggest that we will win tomorrow. If nothing else but the players' professional pride to carry them into a 2-1 win.

It will be interesting to see how angsty the crowd gets should things not go that way.

Wouldn't take a point at home to anybody in this division. Even if we are bottom and they are top. Especially not fucking Barrow. I probably bore everybody when I emphasise this, and you aren't wrong for being sensible in your expectation, but it's shit like this that shows what a state we're in. I can't bring myself down to that level. I'll always expect us to beat sides like this and be disappointed if we don't.

I do get this view, and it's a two level thing - on a broader level, thinking that Barrow are a better team than us is not something I'm happy about. But on a realistic level, Barrow are a better team than us in the present moment (and to be clear, a better team than most in the division).

In my head we’re still as good as Bournemouth & Brentford and would expect to beat them, reality however is somewhat different these days.

I’m hoping we come out & have a go at them and score early, and somehow manage to hang on, however reality is going to kick in and we will capitulate in the second half.

Have a feeling it’s going to get a bit toxic if we concede early

We were worthy winners against Mansfield in my opinion.

So this can be done. We just need to play to our ability.

A Mansfield / Accrington performance will see 3 points.

A Wimbledon performance will be another defeat.

Got an ST, love the pub and banter...going to go anyway.

I always call it in November...and i called it mid table*

So my expectation is very low.

Love to be surprised!

Flying back from Athens. Couldn’t have timer it better.

I hope fans realise we should support the team whilst at the same time not particularly supporting the club.

To be fair, I think it is extraordinary the level to which people are doing just that. Minimal dissent at the moment.

Clem's return, if it happens, will change that I think.
