Problem with Cumbria is like, its like if Cornwall was a RL hotbed, it’s sparsely populated spread out, poor transport links, no main central big town or city. No one side area is big enough to support a competitive SL team the only possible viable merger would be Whitehaven and Workington, and call them selves Cumberland (historical county name) or west Cumbria. Barrow could only be involved if that bridge over Morecambe bay ever happens and the have a motorway up the west coast, but none of that will ever happen.

Neutralfan7 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Fantastic for all 3 cumbria clubs to be in the championship next season, being realistic all 3 will probably be favourites for the drop but hoping they all prove people wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scubby Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 If Barrow and Workington can build like Whitehaven did this year it could be a great season in the NW for the Cumbrian clubs. They started slow but found their feet and finished strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
