Episode 8 – Barrow AFC (H)
In Episode 8 of Beyond the Barside, Aaron is joined by Si and Dave to reflect on the midweek clash with Cambridge United.
We then turn our attention to the weekend as Aaron chats with Barrow fan Jonny, editor of the GiveEmBeans fanzine (https://www.giveembeans.co.uk), to get the visitors’ perspective ahead of their trip to the JobServe Community Stadium.
Finally, Aaron, Si, and Dave reconvene for some last thoughts before kick-off.
Intro music by Sam Hopkins.
