8 days a week

On another forum there is a thread about the numbers of games that have been played in a short time years ago.

Somewhere I have a programme for the 1955/1956 season which I cannot find. On it, the fixture lists shows the number of games that had to be crammed in for Barrow to complete the season. It was insane, especially with players being part time.

Does anyone on here have a list of those fixtures?

Sorry this took so long Ron, but here goes..........

Friday March 30th Workington away

Saturday March 31st Halifax away

Monday 2nd April Oldham home

Saturday 7th April St Helens RL Cup semi final

Wednesday 11th April St Helens RL Cup semi final replay. This game also went to extra time

Thursday 12th April Hull home

Saturday 14th April Warrington away

Tuesday 17th April Salford away

Wednesday 18th April Blackpool away

Monday 23rd April Whitehaven home

10 games in 25 days, only 3 of them at home, I wonder what todays players would make of it?????

I’m sure the players would love it as there’s loads of wages to be made in a short space of time and the training will be very low intensity in between!??
