Fans are being encouraged to put money aside over the summer, ready to jump on the Bluebirds’ bus next season. On Friday, the Bluebirds Trust launched their ‘Summer Saver’ online scheme to help Barrow AFC fans spread the cost of coach travel to away games. ‘Saving a bit now will help spread the cost of travel once the season starts,’ said Trust Travel organiser Richard Ingham.
