Yes , it states around 950, they’ve apparently bought a second hand stand from the Birmingham Commonwealth games.😂 angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cstand Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 (edited) 9 hours ago, Steadybreeze said: Funnily enough I went to the Barrow Vs Port Vale game last night as I'm up here in the Lakes on holiday. They play a similar style to us, get it wide, plenty of balls in etc. Their left winger is very tidy & could cause us problems, can't remember his name but he's on loan from Everton. Whoever recommended staying at Dalton must be on drugs, it's a terrible place, whole town is run down and looks empty. Ulverston is a canny place, lots of good boozers Grange Over Sands is lovely place to walk along the promenade looking out across Morecambe bay or at the flower beds/plants next to the railway line. It’s got 4-5 cafes and a couple of pubs. It’s about a 45 minute drive to Barrow Edited August 15 by cstand Steadybreeze 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also never anywhere to stay nearby because everywhere is booked up with contractors for BAE. You're better off staying somewhere like Dalton and getting a taxi on for the match. Much nicer town, better pubs too. Ulverston isn't a bad option. We stayed in Ulverston when we were at Morecambe two seasons ago. Had a great time. Good walking, views, pubs and we went to the Lakes for the day when the game was postponed. Second time we stayed in a b+b in Morecambe. Preferred Ulverston!

A good one for the neutral I reckon. cstand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The birth place of Stan Laurel 👍 I delivered some ladders(Abru in Belper)to B n Q and Homebase when on the road many years ago in Barrow, One hell of a drive on the A590 it seemed to go on and on and on and on and on. A ghost town, Lots work at the Submarine base there, Good advice for Dalton or Ulverston 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we get four volunteers to smuggle into the next delivery? They can stand in each corner of the ground in case there's a floodlight failure.

BarrowRam Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Haven’t posted for a while. Couldn’t believe Barrow have draw Derby. Unfortunately I’ll miss the game I’m on a family holiday. it’s a good trek from Derby up to Barrow. A590 can be a pain it’s part dual carriageway then the rest single lane. Most people park at Asda which is next to Holker Street stadium. I think most away fans go Wetherspoons before the game.
