Come on reds!!!

[Zip It Shrimpy]

We can do this.

Can't wait.

[Keith]

Got to feel so sorry for Stokes, he looked really good when he came in. Flip side, great to see King back in the side.

COME ON MORECAMBE!!!

[Redalert1970]

Very poor game so far

[Keith]

Not sure if the pitch is cutting up, it's very windy, or just very slippery due to the rain, but lots of slips and misplaced passes.

[Keith]

Very poor game so far

As Freez may have said, "It's end to end rubbish".

No-one ghosting in behind the defence.
Ref isn't having a nightmare.
No horror tackles.
Not seen anything to fear so far.

Shocking defending

1 0 to Barrow

[Keith]

Big hoof from keeper, taking a free-kick, knocked down in the penalty area. Telford given too much space, so had time to pick his spot. We need to up our game, not been good so far.

[Redalert1970]

Keith we have been very very poor

[Keith]

Decision our way, Senior should probably have had a second yellow. Very fortunate.

Keith we have been very very poor

We've been suckered in to playing like Barrow, in lots of big hoofs up the pitch, but that's not been our game most of this season. We need to start passing the ball.

If we don’t buck up our great run is coming to an end. Losing our discipline at the moment and looking second best all over the pitch.
COME ON YOU MORECAMBE REDS.

This is looking like the Harrogate game, and we know how that panned out.

[AndyReifman]

Hoping we can hold on the last few minutes of this first half so we can go in 1-0 down and Derek can have a nice long talk with the boys about remembering who we are and how we like to play.

[Keith]

PHEW! Inches away from an own goal. Get in at half-time 1-0 and regroup.

[Angler1]

Well that's a very below par performance so far from Morecambe, Barrow look a poor team and are there fot the taking if we start playing football. Bloxham needs to start playing .

[Keith]

Be interesting to see how they come out in the second half and whether Derek will make any changes? Songo'o's passing has been awful, but that's probably because of a couple really bad ones, that stand out, as it is difficult to think of any players who are having anything better than average game. We need to improve... ...a LOT!

Slew hasn't been our worst performer, but I'd probably bring Mayor on for the second half. If Love is fit, then bring him on for Senior, before he gets sent off? He's definitely going if he commits another foul.

[Redalert1970]

Not just Bloxham it's all of them

[Keith]

If Love is fit, then bring him on for Senior, before he gets sent off?

Easy, this management game!

Senior>Love

[Keith]

FFS! Really should be 2-0. Barrow well on top. Awful defending by Bedeau. Smith with a good save, then an overhead kick from Rawson, to clear off the line.

[Born again Bill]

Just not gelling tonight, shame after the recent run of form

[dannymorc1]

Where is the team from Saturday? We look at sixes and sevens, and don't seem to have any answer to Barrow's tactics. COME ON YOU MORECAMBE REDS. Give us a goal, or two!
