Stand In Should Know Moore Within Days

By Sam Elliott

The future of Barrow’s interim manager Micky Moore should be a lot clearer within the next few days.

Moore has held the fort at Holker Street since the departure of Paul Cox back in mid-August.

Results have been mixed and on Saturday Barrow required a late Byron Harrison goal to salvage a 1-1 home draw with bottom club Torquay United. Watch Match Highlights Here.

Managing director Andrew Casson and the board now have a decision to make. Moore, Cox's former assistant, should discover if he is the man they want to take the club forward in the early part of this week.

He said: “I spoke to Andrew and the board and said ‘let’s get Saturday’s game out of the way’.

"We will revisit on Monday, Tuesday, and I think that will be the first time where we can have some proper reflection in terms of where we are going, what we are doing, and how we have done. They can listen to my ideas and what my plans would be.”

Moore accepts his team got lucky against Torquay and told the North West Evening Mail that standards were not met.

“The one thing I’ve done in my short tenure here is always give an honest opinion of what I believe I’ve seen,” he said. “I don’t think we deserved anything.

“It wasn’t acceptable. I’ve always been honest about what I have seen, but we have let ourselves down.”
