    This will be a very tough game tomorrow, Barrow have a tight defence and we need to start scoring goals. However we setup, the need for others in the squad to step up has never been more important. There is a lot of talent in this squad but GA needs to solve the age old issue of how to get the rest of the team scoring.

    1-0 to Barrow. A (16 club) Jamie Proctor screamer (including City). Man of the match to Niall Canavan saving two shots on the line.:unsure:

    And not getting sent off for handball ? Not there tomorrow (In Manchester) so we are guaranteed a win. Canavan v Cook will be like the Titanic and the Lucitania squaring up against each other.

    Should be somewhere around The Pev around KO time.

    I imagine for Barrow it means they can compete for players. If they don't have to live in Barrow and can train in Manchester it's better for the players.

    So the chant for tomorrow’s visiting team should be ‘Do you even know where Barrow is’?

    Yes, they've trained in the North West for several years. It allows them to get a better quality of player and they don't need to move up to Cumbria. It's worked really well for them.

    Apparently some of their players, not knowing the area, have been lost in the Grange-over-Sands, Newby Bridge, Ulverston triangle. As mysterious as Bermuda!

    He really isn't.

    International career[edit]
    Having previously represented the United States at the under-17 level, Tomkinson was called up to the United States under-23 national team on October 8, 2023, ahead of friendlies against Mexico and Japan.[10]

    It's good to see so many of us optimistic, but for me it just feels like another 'here we go again' and I'm really short on enthusiasm for this match. I'm actually dreading going to be honest.

    I feel like we're at the point where Rupp and Sparks need to go for this club to seriously move forward.

    I would personally prefer to live in somewhere like Kendal or Newby Bridge than Manchester

    Part of me is looking forward to it.

    The other, dreading it.

    I'm going into the game ready to laugh and take the piss out of the city players. Again. That way I won't be disappointed or angry...

    Had a static caravan for a few years just past Grange, Flookburgh. Grange is a funny little place tbh.....
