In seriousness we should open the stadium to just Barrow's allotment of fans - I'm sure they'd be able to socially distance around the ground. 

I worry it'll be a bit pre-season friendly-y as it is. 

Is this fixture still planned for the 5 Sep? I reckon we will field a pretty strong team and use it as our final warm up game.

Shame John Rooney isn’t still at Barrow. Would of been interesting him against Wayne.

Yeah, last season they had John Rooney playing & ex Ram Ian Evatt managing them. I was talking to Evatt pre lockdown in my local gym (he still lives in Chesterfield where he played for a few years) He has since moved on to Bolton, but was telling me they (Barrow) had a very exciting side who liked to play football. I reckon this tie will be tricky.

Is he now Bolton manager?

Without gate receipts, the trip down to Pride Park will probably bankrupt Barrow 

Is this a joke? They managed to find their way to teams across the National League. 

I hope it is televised so they get some additional revenue. It's a romantic tie.

They last played each other two months before I was born. Which was very long time ago.
