Manager Adam Murray has overseen a mixed pre-season for Barrow, with a 4-3 win over Mansfield Town followed by a 0-0 draw against Radcliffe. After the Radcliffe game, Murray said: "It was a real game of football. Last night was very physical, and they gave us different challenges to what we’ve dealt with so far in pre-season."
The Bluebirds will face League One side Blackpool in their next pre-season friendly on Saturday. Before the match, supporters from both clubs will participate in a re-enactment of Barrow’s first-ever match, which took place over 125 years ago.
