Saturday August 5th Fixtures

Glad we’ve got grimsby in a fortnight than today, not sure that away end would last in this

 

[PuB]

Who’s getting rained off today then?

 

[PaulHaddock]

whats ironic about it, out of interest?

Our pitch is pretty impressive now.

We all remember the waterlogged pitch before the Liverpool game…

 

[Casey]

A bit moist around here.

That old saying 'it will take a stud' change to 'it will float the Ark Royal'.

We relayed our pitch this summer but I was driving down the m23 this morning at 30mph as the rain was coming down so hard.

Should be on.

Touch and go for us. Being hit by Storm Antoni by the looks of it.

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

Rumour is that Croasdale is out injured which means we’re screwed.

We have our best centre back (Masterton), Jonny Williams. our captain, Shaun Williams and Ollie Hawkins all out mate so I wouldn’t worry too much.

Any of you tinpotters going to call your game off?

Two right backs, two left backs and best two centre halves not starting/injured, football is back.

Absolutely dreadful team.

 

[EnglishRed]

Midfielder in Central defence. Boyle picked up a knock by all accounts.

Not sure about Waters and Dalby as our starting strikers either.

You’re playing Crawley. I wouldn’t worry too much.

Hayden should be playing, simple as. And TOC in midfield.

Palmer's days looking increasingly numbered if he's not even getting in when Mullin is out. Waters has to start otherwise there was no point in buying him, he was bought specifically for cover.

 

[chipmunx]

The first starting XI of the season 😍.

Jamie Proctor and Ben Whitfield miss out through light knocks 🤕, while starts are handed out to four new signings 👀.#WeAreBarrow pic.twitter.com/smlSGbuF0A

We're Bradford City, mate. Naff against sides like Crawley.

 

[Indian Dan]

Think our game is going down the shitter. Pitch inspection at 2.30 ffs

Christ you guys need a striker fast if you’re relying on Dalby and Waters. How come Palmer is on the bench?

I'll take this over last summer's heatwaves any day of the week

+1

 

[GTFCfish]

All set up to watch on my lads dodgy box while he’s at the game, really can’t wait for this, pre season really is the pits.

We do look light up front without Mullin.

I think Dalby is just ahead of Palmer in the pecking order, he came on leaps and bounds last season and started to look very good, whereas Palmer had a quieter end of the season and was carrying an injury by all accounts. Dalby looked more dangerous in the pre season games.

I'd have gone with Palmer and Dalby myself but PP must have felt Waters would cause more problems.

Parked up at 1.50pm, sat in the car for 45 minutes until it was postponed and managed to avoid a complete soaking. Home again by 3pm. What a lovely August afternoon out.

 

[EnglishRed]

Wrexham and Notts both 1 nil down.

Maybe L2 isn't that easy ha!

[PuB]

BELEAGUERED Wrexham and Notts, currently ROCK BOTTOM of the football league

 

[Indian Dan]

2-0 Dongs

 

[EnglishRed]

Our players are still in America by the looks of it

 

[Master D]

Send us back down. No Mullin and Parkinson refusing to pick his best side.
