Fleetwood and Barrow, two neighboring cities in northwest England, are home to teams competing in the League 2, the country’s fourth division.
The Fleetwood team recently unveiled their new gear with a player posing classically, foot on a ball. But Barrow noticed something – the ball had their initials, BAFC.
The ball likely got left behind after a match last season. Now Barrow wants it back.
They asked nicely on X: “Can we have our ball back?” But Fleetwood isn’t budging. “Could be anyone’s ball,” they replied, joking about the situation.
That could be anyone’s ball
