  1. Personally think Egremont may struggle as they step back up to the prem. Millom/Elbra may struggle and may come straight back down but same could be said for Barrow Island. Division 3 is always hard to call, Fev lions and Milford will be favourites. Personally think Dis might struggle, they were an ageing squad in Cumbria league so be interesting to see if they've recruited anyone. I believe Hensingham have recruited young Weatherill from Wath Brow ( didn't see that coming ) and recently named Kris Coward as head coach.
  2. Baffles me how hard it is just to alternate home and away games. Guaranteed 2 home games a month and a steady cash flow into clubs, it's like the powers that be at the RFL are oblivious to common sense.
  3. Seems I may need to eat some humble pie here..... Latest rumour is due to RFL ruling, if Barrow want Walker they'll need to pay a substantial transfer fee. Hope the club play hard ball over any fee.
  4. I agree with you mate, very messy situation it's turned into. I'd heard Haven's initial problem was an illegal approach to him prompted him to want away, then barrow refused to pay a transfer fee so Haven basically said no and are now still fighting it. It all just seems to be hearsay so I doubt we'll ever know the full goings on. Not good for either party unfortunately
  5. You've verbally agreed terms with Walker but still on-going legal battle getting his release I've heard
  6. That's a bit worrying for you guys, what size squad are you aiming for? 2 to come and you're maybe hoping you still get Walker from us but that seems to be dragging on.
  7. So that takes us up to 22 that Jonty said we'd be going with. Take it no more props incoming which is a bit of a worry IMO.
  8. The same lad who smashed FFMM back in 2018?
  9. Plenty experience and size but given how unlucky we've been with injuries (and him) last couple year, probably a good thing he didn't join if he keeps fit, no doubt he'll be an asset for Barrow though. Hopefully we get a couple in.
  10. Which greenwood from hull KR is it? Barrow just signed one from Salford who used to be with KR?
  11. Played just over 25 games in the last 4 seasons, what have his injuries been to keep him out for so long?
  12. I think all we're missing now is a couple more props and we'll be good to go
  13. I wouldn't of thought we'd need another hooker.... Philips/Newton be first choice and then could use Doran there and have Hanneghan/Carter as halfs
  14. Wouldn't thought both would be. jonty said in an interview we're going with 22 depending on finances and we've got 21, can't imagine getting both on that basis and then throw in the Barnes rumour. But it was the other guy who mentioned DDW and png lad so he'll maybe know more.
  15. I contribute a lot "fella". The fact you've edited your post seems weird seeing you seemed so confident. But seen as you want me to disprove it, send me a DM
  16. Hadn't re-signed till town lost one/two forwards and that's a fact, Croston is dreadful
  17. Think this is more wishful thinking. There is much more to it than this but I'd love to be proven wrong
  18. Source? I'm not so sure this is the case
  19. Probably not as they won't pay for themselves till about 6 months after installation. You need to brush up your knowledge
  20. I wouldn't read too much into us being " flush with cash " as I don't think this is the case. It's often cheaper to get players over than it is to sign players in this country. Contract money is nearly always less and bar the flights aren't paying any travel/fuel money every week. I'm sure Barrow have irons in the fire but I'd be a little concerned how long it's taking to announce. You should have Walker and a young SR from a SL side to come in to bolster your pack. Still no word on Sammut so he could be an option if you don't bring in another half.
  21. Ah got you. Maybe was the case mate, but as you say, he's found his feet now and seems to be thriving
  22. Genuine question, Why would that have anything to do with it ?
