Obviously you don't understand the 'irony ' of LOL.
Oh believe me I do

0-34, 8 mins remaining, Think it’s safe to say we have won this one.
0-58 What a fantastic game by Barrow here, if only we put it up the jumper & beat Leigh instead of pushing it
FT

Simples stop Sammut and you stop Barrow (lol).
Easier said than done as your finding out again.

Barrow heading in comfortable. They are just ruthless right now. That game on end of June versus Fax is going to be a solid contest.
Getting a few strike players back now as well as a few new recruits & the local lads are getting lots of game time as the adjust to the higher level, Everything is good in the Furness Peninsula
-
Approaching HT 0-22
Town are still competitive by the sounds of it, But if Barrow score next they could wilt here.
-
Tee full length try when Town were threatening
Miludi fed Tee & we know what happens next, Should be 0-12 
-
1st blood to Barrow maybe a fortunate Sammut try under the sticks 0-6 ……21 mins in.
Town pressure but then Miludi ( 1st game back after the 8 game ban ) feeds Tee
Tee full length try when Town were threatening
Miludi fed Tee & we know what happens next, Should be 0-12 Town are very much in this game.
-
All Raiders pressure here, camped on the Town line for a few sets but Town held firm.
Town driving forwards & came close, Defences on top atm
-
Come on the BARROW
-
Big game for opposing reasons & both teams need the win, 2 French lads will be keen to impress & hope to see French flair & passion but no histrionics & that goes for all our lads as whoever keeps their composure takes the win.

I am from Barrow. I actually attend the matches and cheer on the side. I can make my own mind up on what I see, rather than rely on a biased radio commentary. I don’t make badly informed comments on the attendance for example. I also feel for my fellow fans and the Widnes faithful were let down today. There are a lot of players in black today stealing a living. I know you like to contribute to the forums on the soccer and rugby, but really for somebody who lives in “the live music capital of the world” you seem to spend a lot of time listening to BBC local radio.
So I shouldn’t comment because I live abroad?
My badly informed crowd comments were R Cumbria’s comms duo’s, I merely repeated them.
i listen to RC as it’s the only way I have to follow my team & as we are 6 hours behind GMT it’s breakfast time here & afterwards I’m free to enjoy all the music that Austin offers.
My question to you is, Why does it bother you that much

Oh really. That’s how it looked from where you was stood / sat ? Some of the tries Widnes conceded were embarrassing. Think the players should have a whip round for their fans who gave up their time and money to follow them today.
Whip round for the fans….Yes agreed as they brought a few
I understand your pain here but try to give a little credit to the winners please.
feel for Widnes atm but honestly your experiencing what others have to endure season after season, hope you pick up again soon.

Thanks guys
. Remember to tune in this Sunday from 2.50pm for more great coverage
I enjoy your summarising/comms so don’t me wrong here, But you guys do go off-piest from time to time when the action gets lost to your listeners, But generally a great listen

Better still get down to Craven Park, you can watch it live and not have to listen to the "musings", it's a win win.
Not viable from Texas I’m afraid but I have a ST & also buy a match ticket on line, So I’m there in spirit

So Widnes decide to give Barrow effectively three points with that points difference and despite some near scores its as expected, bar Sheffield keeping faint playoff hopes alive. Maybe London take confidence from that but so often teams at the bottom ´waste´ performances where they get nothing and dont show up in the winnable games.
Widnes didn’t GIVE Barrow anything, We spanked them & TOOK IT from them 🫵
-
PS another good crowd today, Hope it’s close to 3k
Edit FT 44-4
-
HT 18-4 & sounds like Widnes have fitness issues so let’s play sensible but expensive & gas these out & hopefully put a few more tries into them.
Wukkie away will be a very hard derby as per but with them fighting for safety & the previous close games they will be extra fired up so if we keep chilled & disciplined we should grind it out.
-
Barrow gone close here early but still 0-0 ATM & they reckon the Attendance is around the 2,700/2,800+
Edit Currently 18-4 with a few mins remaining of the half

Leigh dodged a bullet there, how often do you see teams lose after winning a final.
Leigh players on a short turnaround with multiple players rested and probably still rough as toast. Happy to get the 2 points.
You bet they dodged a bullet considering Barrow had Forster, Shaw, Miloudi, Wood, Langtree missing & had 11 local lads on that pitch today & just come up a division, Good attendance of 2422
Hope we continue to build the infrastructure & add some muscle to the pack next season as we have been light all season due to the Walne Brothers retiring just before the season started.
-
It is difficult to follow half the time & I wish they would save their musings for when the game has stopped temporarily.
-
Couldn’t access the commentary today so FlashScore was giving me a heart attack, Sooooo unlucky today & should have kept the ball under yer jumper instead of pressing & got caught out, Great efforts though Barrow Att 2422

Hope some of our injuries will have cleared up after a short break but still a big ask against such a good squad. COYR.
I’d either go as strong as possible if Cresta believes we are fresh & recovered fully & can win, Go for it…..Or if still a lot of injuries, Rest them all, Take a heavy defeat but go into the Widnes & future games well rested & primed for victories

Cracking win away from home again. Hope the injuries aren't too bad, as someone else said a week off will surely help whilst Leigh battle it out in the cup at Spurs.
Get some rest into our squad and hopefully several niggles will ease & we might just give Leigh a heck of game if they gas out next week

It’s the smallest Town team in my 50 years of watching them, we are just getting steamrollered by bigger teams. For some reason our coach still thinks his theory that filling the pack with small mobile forwards rather than players with size and power is still valid. At one point last week we had 4 hookers on.
You obviously Breed game as girls up there
Town are very much in this game.
Workington away
in Barrow Raiders
