As a young lad staying with an uncle in Barrow I was taken to a match against Accrington Stanley. Last Friday I went to the game against Gravesend which was 59 years later. I have been an armchair supporter in between and saw the decline,fall and now climb once again to Football League Status. Crawley will be my next visit, living in Kent I am only in reasonable distance of a few grounds.
Great to see the name once again in lights may it be forever this time.
