I take it her mum took a shine to you then? "We've now been married for 40 years" Wink

Just looked through our home attendance for the last few season and it’s incredible how far we’ve come this year, even under Wellens we were getting nothing like this. The season under Brown we only got above 6k a handful of times. Long may it continue and up the bastard reds! COYR

Latent support. All people needed was a reason to come back - and to feel appreciated and not fleeced.

Obviously, I hope we go up but it’s not really for the prospect of higher league football, it’s because I feel everybody connected to the club deserve it.

If not this season, next.

I spent 3 weeks there in the late seventies working on my first Manpower placement, with about a dozen others from the Swindon area. Rhys Neal is the only guy in the group I remember, a fairly well known Face. We stayed in a B&B on Walney Island and worked 10 hour days at British Cellophane. We were out and about every night in Barrow, there was a wide choice of clubs and pubs, mostly with "Turns", singers, comedians and bands. a memorable night was had in Barrow Supporters
Club. One of the guys by chance met a girl he'd known from working at Butlins, me and him and one of her friends went back to her place and had a couple of drinks and her parents made us sandwiches, very hospitable! There were a lot of good people living there then, seems unemployment may have dragged it down a bit. Shame.
Happy days.


Great story Munich it's amazing when a place is mentioned there's always a story of someone with a connection many years ago.

I'll stick with my pessimistic prediction approach which seemed to have worked so well recently. Think it's going to be the case of after the Lord mayor's show today and we'll be ground down and eventually bored into submission and suffer a 2-0 home defeat.

I'm still on hols and there is a big screen and party down at the sea front tonight showing what they expect to be Tranzonspor's title winning match. Oddly even though Trabzon is miles away from where we are there is an obsession with them. Might have to Don the Swindon shirt and get involved if things go well today!

Barrow sold nearly 200 tickets + pay on the day, good effort from them.
