Barrow winning league one and gaining automatic promotion 

And a young Workington Town team gaining promotion via the play offs

Great to see and hopefully Cumbria is on the rise again

Proper looking forward to some good derby games next season down at craven park. Hopefully we all can stay up and show RFL that Cumbria is back and stop ignoring us.

Honest Question, How does the RFL ignore Cumbria?

Not sure they do. 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.

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 🤞

You and us both 

Our strips the last 3 or 4 years have been superb, mainly because we have gone away from the garish nonsense that looks like a 90's bus seat.

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.
