Gary Schofield, bit of a shock that one.

big shock as he usually speaks his mind.

Certainly going to be some fireworks up in Cumbria with Dezzy & Schofield!

That is a surprise as he has been out of coaching a while as far as im aware, but i think it will end in tears. Schofield is a big personality and i can see it getting in the way with Des. But i like the way that he speaks his mind regardless of whether i think he is right or not. Plus he is a British coach. Good luck to him.

Could be a bit of a culture shock for someone then...

Anyway, I believe it'll be announced tommorow, Good luck to Gary, and at least we won't have to listen to him on the radio anymore

Has he got all his coaching badges now? Oh and

Doesn't he realise he won't get to pick the team, tactics or decide on new signings? Des might as well just make himself player-coach.

..... An interesting choice

You cynical lot!!!!

Sometimes something just so wierd, so leftfield, so radicle and out there, so risque, unthought of, outside of the box, blue sky thinking and visionary happens and it changes things, it changes peoples way of thinking, it changes lives, this of course will be f@ck all like that and I give it 3 months into the season.

Whats the odds on him lasting the season

Was a good player but he's a complete prat, strange choice.

I love how Gary is not being given a chance before it has even offically been anounced!

I wonder what the bosses and peers of some of the RLFANS members would have to say about them!

Good luck to Barrow and Gary S

(PS (its got ends it tears all over it!)

That article is nearly 2 weeks Old Jonnie, apparently Barrow (well Des) spoke to Crompton, Noble and Jon Sharp before deciding on Schofield.

well spotted brew,iwas lookingat the wrong date, just had another look and seen the article published date

This is hilarious, no further comment required.

Poor choice IMO, very poor indeed.

After the pantomime that's gone on up there in recent months, wouldn't you sign someones that's been living thousands of miles away and out of touch from recent goings on!?

Let's see how he does before we cast scorn on this appointment. It might come back to bite us on the bum if we're not careful.

Good -- for us, not somebody I woukd want coaching us at all, gobby and outdated imo.

Maybe will go well with Uncle Des as he is just about the same isn't he???

Just realised that the Barrow's new assistant is Nigel Wright, I work with his brother in law, he's (Nigel) was Jimmy Lowes assistant at Warrington, got offered the york job a year or so ago (when the march's left) but turned it down)

Wright is a top coach and conditioner. He learned his trade is Oz working alongside names likes Brett Kenny and Tim Sheens. If he can get the squad fit (unlike a lot of last season) and we can steer reasonably clear of injuries, then we should be up there in 2011.

As with all new coach announcements it could go either way, but most Barrow fans are more than happy with the Schofield/Wright coaching combination.

Life is never dull as a Barrow fan that's for sure. Roll on 2011. We want our pot back !!

do u know what, i like the fact that life is not dull at barrow, lets face it, far too many things are dull and boring, Des can never be accused of that, and neither wull Schofield.

Yes clubs fans will pour scorne, but as TS said lets see how he goes.

At this level we need pantomime villans like, Schofiled, Aston, Millward, they vertainly know how to court the press and get our game in he headlines, if not always for the right reasons!
