Why does every report I read say that Barrow's excellent win at Widnes was a SHOCK ?
Haven't Barrow won the last 3 meetings ?
I find it very dis respectful to the Barrow team. Its not Widnes' fault, although Cullen has said in a round about way that it was a shock and has blamed being the 'Golden boys' of the league as a reason for your defeats.
I'd say that your image as Golden boys is the least of your worries at the moment.
Post Edited so it makes sense - Note to self..Don't drink & type !!

If you read so many reports, why is your English so awful? The punctuation is particularly poor. |

As much as I admire the current Barrow side, they are considered a small backwater club. In terms of stature they are some way behind us, Halifax, Leigh, and dare I say it Whitehaven.

Agree that they are considered a small club, but its nice to see them doing so well this year (although I might regret saying this come the play-offs)

Barrow are currently a small club compared to say Wigan, but are just as big as Leigh and bigger than Whitehaven by a street. Had SL come about 10 years earlier we would have been certs and would probably be in a similar position to the likes of Wakefield, Cas and Hudds to name but 3.
I think you have to take history into account here. Up until the early 90's the club had long spells in the top division. We have a long history that encompasses many decades and includes many great players, great teams and trophies (including the 1983 Lancashire Cup - defeating 'cup kings' Widnes when we were a 2nd Division Club). We have always been solvent, own our stadium and have been an integral part of the North Lancs/South Cumbria community since the club was formed in 1875.
It looks like we might be heading back where we belong - the top, but no-one at the club is taking anything for granted and there is a long hard road ahead. That said, there is a real buzz at the club and in the Furness area at the moment and I seriously think anything is possible. If we can get a good SL bid together I think the RFL would like nothing better than a SL team in Cumbria.
