What gets me is that they are supposed to have some money behind them, that window sill looks grotty don't those press 'boxes' get cleaned? That sort of thing is inexcusable, no matter what level you're at, where's their sense of pride? Nice butterfly though! |

They cleaned that window three times before kickoff and it looked like that, great stewarding there!!!

I agree.
We treat our away media well, it's time the rest of the league followed suit.

James, you've been in one away pressbox. Get off your high horse.

Two actually, but I see your point.
I guess I am marginalising this league based on two games.
Ignore my above points everyone.

No, I find them disrespectful. I've sat in many a pressbox, (even if you can call them that) where you have to make do with just a seat, as more than likely has Maccy. I found Barrow to be welcoming, friendly and with sufficient amenities. No team HAS to provide wifi, tea & coffee and a media room, so when you get it you should be thankful.

@ nlr: I do get where you're coming from regarding the facilities, we have to be realistic, but what does it cost to clean a window? For a club with supposedly decent financial backing and on the verge of going into the Conference National that window & sill looks disgusting. My Dad's garden shed has cleaner windows than that.

I'm not saying that it was the worst place ever, Hyde was worse. I was just saying that there is a huge gap in the quality of some clubs. The staff were all friendly and there were some very nice touches, like the kettle and the fact that it was indoors. But there were some issues that, with the money they have could be fixed. Didn't mean to be disrespectful, just highlighting some things that could be improved.
