I cried
A shaking Keepmoat/Eco, …..now known a a ‘Barrow moment’ step aside Mansfield
That was ridiculous. I think it’s the best game I’ve ever seen. At HT I was thinking ‘oh no, all these people here for the first time in ages and we’re bloody losing’ But master tactician GM and a huge helping of grit and determination pulled it out of the bag and that’s putting it lightly. Wow.
I actually feel sorry for armchair glory supporters, they'll never feel anything like we did today. Never seen and feel apart of something magical. You would never have the same connection from a settee.
10.000 home fans I reckon in a crowd of 10.251 Don’t think Barrow had more than 250 Brilliant to see so many there. That was about as loud as I have ever heard it when we got that 3rd goal. And what a goalBiggins was like Martin Peters arriving from no where to bullet a deader into the net.

I can’t match the wonderful posts on this thread but I can’t help but throw in my garbled thoughts on this amazing day.My wife joined me for the 4-hour journey to the game today for only her second game of the season. Her first was the disastrous 0-5 humiliation against Morecambe.Mrs Pancho’s Mum passed away last Saturday. We’ve had an awful week. I got my wife a ticket last week and encouraged her to come along and forget her sorrows for a day.At half time we were quiet and she was saying she’d brought us bad luck after our amazing run.Then came the second half. Possibly the most incredible second half I have experienced in my 55 years supporting the Rovers.With Mrs Pancho to my left and my beloved brother to my right, we just went completely bonkers as each of those 4 goals went in.The atmosphere for those last 30 minutes was nothing short of incredible.This amazing club of mine are such a vital and important part of my life. Today, those heroic players have turned our family’s grief into utter joy.I could never support another club and I will never forget today.
Colchester are essentially safe after Sutton failed to win. That may take the edge out of Tuesday's game on their side of things. Likewise, Gillingham have nothing to play for next weekend.

Missus dropped me off and went shopping circa 4.10 she was in the outlet and could hear the ‘Rovers Roar’ she said it was an incredible Din!
Anderson's slide pass to Rowe!!!!!!
Fantastic game. At half time we were saying in the concourse - whole city comes out and usual fair. But I just had a feeling one goal, we could win this. The crowd were the 12th man. One of the best come backs since that semi with Crewe in the JPT. This is why we love love club. Our club our city!
