Not a great night, but we respect the point!
FAO: Notts' stattos - it seems that we are always better in the second half - or is this just my imagination?
[QUOTE=jackal2;40590095]You can't ignore the injuries we've suffered to key players like Edwards and Jones. At the moment it's all about grinding out as many points as possible, waiting for lads like these to return, and then hoping we get more luck on the injury front in the second half of the season.[/QUOTE
Of course, and credit to the team for somehow scraping these results together but you can only get away with performances like these, and the last few games, before you don’t get a lucky penalty, or the other team aren’t three up by half time. I think we’re all aware of the players we’re missing and the impact that has but that isn’t any excuse for the lack of shape, tempo and basic concentration for large portions of a game.
Whilst we continue to scrape these lucky results there’s an element of the emperor’s new clothes about it all. We’re using up a hell of a lot of luck too early in the season for my liking.

You're 50% right about the game. That first half was completely unacceptable.
The second, however, we probed a lot and made them worried...which is why they ended up sitting back and holding on.
Can we just all realise that sometimes you have to accept results/performances like this in EFL2?
Ffs Wrexham had loads of late goals last season and that was one of the key aspects of them getting promoted....they never gave up.
Rotten performance - if I was a Barrow fan, I’d be absolutely fuming.
We need a stripy jumper and a swag bag after that dreadful showing.
Got away with one there.
Can’t see how we didn’t deserve a point there, Barrow commentator said we deserved at least that. Poor first half and we have to stop having to chase the game.
Pleased with that in the end, we are now showing a never say die attitude.
Auto promotion place after 13 games will do for me no matter how we have achieved it.

McDonald looked a bit of a donkey.
Hinchy too lightweight.
Brown and Martin both made a positive contribution and made me a bit more optimistic for the next few weeks.
Abbott was a massive miss this evening.
