As a Barrow fan, I would be amazed but very happy if we could replicate our achievements of last season, finishing in the top 3 or 4 would be a more realistic target as I do believe we over achieved last season. If this will be good enough for our Chairman is another story.
As for being jealous nothing could be further from the truth, every Barrow fan knows that our stadium is our downfall and will eventually prevent us from obtaining a super league licence come 2011. Out of the 3 clubs that have ticked a box so far, I believe that yourselves are a nailed on certainty, Halifax will miss out because of the amount of Yorkshire clubs already in the SL, and we will miss out because of our s*****p of a ground. Toulouse will also get a licence even if they fail to tick a box because the powers that be are desperate to get another French team into SL.
Hopefully by 2014 our ground will be up to standard and we will have better a youth team structure in place, therefore giving us a better chance of a franchise, providing the goal posts aren't moved again.
Anyway good luck for the coming season and some great matches. Let the battle commence on the pitch and the banter off it.

Seven pages to keep on telling yourselves



The Irony and double standards on here are very funny



An interesting season awaits thank puck the off season is over, please take it easy on us and show some sympathy and keep the score down to double digits

Sorry but I must have missed that. Sure you're not talking about your own fans on TRL??

WWWAAAHHHH the RFL hates us!!! WAAAAHHHH! We want special dispensation!!! WAAAAAAHHH!!! Why are Widnes allowed to sign all these great players on Dual Reg!!!??

Your fans have honoured us with 3 threads bitching about us in the last week.. Without those, we wouldn't have these several pages of laughter at Barrow's expense.

7 pages that are largely dedicated to our new dual-reg signings and not Barrow.

There are no double standards here, your fans are pathetic. That’s it. Pure and simple.




It doesn’t matter if we beat Barrow or not. Barrow have absolutely no chance whatsoever of a licence for 2012. None!

And that’s what really rankles with your fans, because you know full well we are likely to be the club which gets that licence.

Perhaps, if your chairman actually put his cash into building Barrow’s infrastructure instead of brown envelopes, they might actually stand a chance of a licence for 2015.

I have a good idea for a T-Shirt for Widnes fans to wear:

Barrow
Salary Cap
CHEATS!

Behave yourselves.
Self proclaimed SL CERTS.
Rentateam.

Right, thread wildly off course. Barrowvians note if you haven't anything original or constructive to say don't bother.
