Fantastic result, atmosphere and a very good performance. Deserved the win.

Barnet? Thought Gash & Mcdonald did ok, Pearson was beaten more often in the air than normal but they also had some players who were useless. If that left back played in Sunday League he would be out of his depth!

First half we had far too much movement and pace for them. Mackreth, Jolley and Arnold all looking good whilst the shop had to take on the two biggest centre backs in pro football.

Great work by Jack for the first goal and I thought that McKeown should have done better with their well struck equaliser having got both hand to it. After that he made two excellent saves.

As already said I too was dissapointed that we played a short free kick with minutes to go but alls well that ends well! Dizza loves a celebration!

To get a 3rd was just icing on the cake.

Thought Robertson, as he has done in all his 3 away performances, was very steady, not particularly eye catching but a solid reliable defender.
Toto was Toto. Loved the look on his face when he joined in the celebrations.

Agree about the stewards. I took the time to thank the head steward for the conduct of his staff ( under some provocation at times). He went about his job with a smile on his face. Well done

Loved the day and as one regular away fan commented on the way out. 'Its days like these that make it all worthwhile".
Amen to that

It's games like these that remind us why we go at all.The hairs on the back of my neck stood up just walking into the ground.

Just written an email to Barnet to offer my thanks to those stewards aswell, who I thought were absolutely first class. I'm not sure we would have benefited from that sort of stewarding at many grounds with such a large and varied away following.

As for the game, fantastic result. MUST WIN TUESDAY!!!!!

Video of the fans has been shared by the conference official facebook page and the dinosaur, Zimmer frame and big c ock can clearly be seen   . Really wish I was there today and all those that did go are a credit to this club.

Are the inflatables going to be a regular thing for the rest of the season?

I don't want to overplay it or anything but I think the inflatables made all the difference.

What happened at Forest Green was unfortunate, but it united the fans and the result was the atmosphere and backing from them today at Barnet.

It galvanised the team too and we got a great result.

The fans turned out in their droves and were singing from the start - you don't typically get that backing from fans when their team has just lost their last two matches.

I really hope that atmosphere can be recreated in all our remaining away games.

Agree with all the comments so far, , but above all today was about us the Fans , , and boy did we do Town proud, , and I really feel we dragged us over the line and earnt the 3 goals and precious 3 points, , proud as ever to be a Mariner and today was a day to never forget and was full of laughs and made it all seem worth it, , we've been through hell but today we showed them all that we are Town and we are loud n proud and we love our club through all the thick and thin.

Those not there, who were slagging off Arnold on the match thread, should probably take note of the fact that people who were actually at the game say he was excellent.
