Barrow striker Richard Brodie`s goal in 1st half time added on opened the scoring for his side as they beat 'The Sports' to set up a 2nd round FA Cup home tie with league side Brentford.

Brodie, on loan from York, proved to be the chief tormentor and grabbed the opening goal on the stroke of half time before Paul Brown smashed home a 25-yard screamer just one minute into the 2nd period. Boro had dominated the opening half without creating many clear cut chances but found coming from 2 goals down and impossible task. Matt Henney added a third in the 56th minute, heading home unmarked, to condemn the travelling fans to early thoughts of the long trip home and league survival.

Brodie was twice denied before breaking the deadlock. His first effort shaved Lee Hook's crossbar before Mark Pullan cleared his goalbound strike. When Carlos Logan hit a long, hopeful ball forward, Baker and keeper Hook collided and Brodie was on hand to gleefully roll the ball home before Brown doubled the lead just after the re-start with his 25-yard effort burying itself low into Hooks net.


Logan added a fourth with a left-foot free-kick from the right-wing which somehow found its way into the bottom corner, Boro's misery complete.

No doubt all connected with Boro will be glad to see the back of Cumbria, hopefully further competitions will not see the side travelling back to Holker Street this season. However, many at the game would not have seen a 4 goal difference between the sides; but 'The Sports' must learn to create and take chances or fixtures will always prove difficult to win.
