Barrow captain Isaac Marriott says their FA Cup upset of League Two Gillingham was a chance for the Bluebirds to set a marker of how far they have come.
Adam Murray's side, ninth in the National League, won at Priestfield against the team eighth in the league above, courtesy of an Innes Cameron winner in the 92nd minute.
It made it 10 games unbeaten for Barrow as they progressed to the second round and, for Marriott, it was further proof of how they have regrouped since relegation last season.
"I said before the game that we've got to use this as a bit of a marker, a bit of motivation to go and show who we really are," the midfielder told BBC Radio Cumbria.

"We're not going to change for anyone, we're just going to stick to our game plan, do what we want to do and impose ourselves.
"We did that and it was a really good performance."
The late winner delighted the 187 fans who made the mammoth 656-mile round trip to Kent as Cameron and his fellow players ran over to celebrate with them when the goal went in.
Having finished bottom of League Two with five different head coaches last season in a traumatic campaign, Barrow are starting to move in the right direction again.
"The fans were immense," said Marriott. "It's a long, long way to come, so credit to them.
"That feeling you get at the end brings even more togetherness.
"Obviously we had a tough season last year but it's now all about bouncing back and the mentality of this group of players, staff and fans is unbelievable. Long may that continue."
