‘It was a blatant mistake’ – controversial loss for Barrow

Barrow surrendered their unbeaten record in League Two in controversial fashion.

Manager Pete Wild described it as a blatant injustice after his side had a late equaliser chalked off.

John Rooney’s indirect free kick appeared to be palmed into the net by home keeper Brad House.

Referee Andy Davies had a long consultation with his fellow officials, before ruling out the adjudging that the ball touched nobody.

Wild was devastated that the 126 traveling Barrow fans had nothing to show for their wonderful support and long journey home.

“We weren’t at our best but I thought we did enough to take home a point, and were denied that by a blatant mistake.

“It was our mistake that led to their goal but we had dominated afterwards and deserved the goal. I feel so sorry for the fans who gave us such tremendous support,” said Wild.

A long clearance from home keeper Jack Rose bounced and was misjudged by his Barrow opposite number Paul Farman allowing Tope Fadahunsi to score easily.

Sam Foley had earlier gone close for Barrow with a shot which Rose tipped onto the post
