HP Beans Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Full time Newcastle arrive in town this Sunday,sounds to me like the RFL are pushing them to make SL. Lets get a big crowd in and hopefully continue our good start. Up the Raiders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring back GB Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Full time yet their first home game drew a crowd of 638, this after winning their opening match away to Town. How can a club operate full time on such attendances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pennington Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Yeah I’m really looking to the game, going to be our toughest test yet. We have played well up to now and especially in the first half against Whitehaven. im going to go for Barrow 28-22 Newcastle and Ritson first try scorer.

Pablo Escobar Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Got to be honest no way that pitch was fit to play on, yes Barrow won & gained 2 points but come on not a chance did anyone enjoy that it was a farce That pitch won't be fit for months it's tip Well done both teams they deserve massive credit How anyone didn't get seriously injured today was a blessing 2 away games so decent rest you would hope or will the club make them train on it???? Surely it now has to be given at least 4 weeks rest Plastic pitch anyone or new surface at least, got to be worth doing espeacialy all this super league hopes Anyways well done Cresta & all the team now for Bradford..

No one enjoyed it haha. I absolutely loved it. Good old fashioned rugby league. Same conditions for both teams and Barrow never looked like losind. Re pitch, desperately need a training pitch with Academy, 2 ladies teams and men's team training and playing on one pitch. So happy for men's and ladies team wins this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red square Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 In theory a great idea but just ask the clubs who have sold their grounds whether they wish they could turn the clock back. If the local authority own the ground you can get nowhere without a serious financial backer - see Leigh for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red square Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I did misread your post. Again though in theory a nice idea but in reality a non-starter if you look at how the local authority have handled sports pitches, the leisure centre, Park Vale running track etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The demand is clearly there, & it would pay for itself while being an asset to the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
