Sun 13th Mar: CC5: Barrow Raiders v Workington Town KO 13:00 (BBC)

[AJK66]

Cracking derby. Town gave it a real go. Doran, Singleton and Fitzsimmons were outstanding. Not the most convincing performance from us but we outlasted them in the end. With Haven battering York at the moment, another derby in the next round would be good!

Who knows what might have happened if Town hadn’t suffered those injuries but all in all I’m happy with our effort and commitment today. Good luck to Barrow in the next round I hope they get a plum draw.

Haven at Home?

When did the roofs disappear from each end?

Duke St end about 15 years (that’s a guess) the other a few years ago.

Doran was the best half on the pitch for most of the game, how old is he ?

Not as old as you think, he’s 27.

He played well in the draw at CP last season, your right I would have guessed at early 30s.

A shame we had so many injuries as we were on top after the first 10 minutes, but it told in the last 15 unfortunately. Great tries from Barrow though, that's what they can do against a team on the back foot 

They were well on top in the first half.  Gave a daft try away and then didn’t get back into any kind of rythmn in the 2nd half.  A few more fit troops and you’ve got a powerful side there.

3 more Injuries today doesn't help, hope they aren't bad ones. We went into todays game with 7 missing, and I'm not sure any are expected back next week.

Scoreline didn't represent the game today was really even contested between Barrow and Town. 

A mixture of town running out of steam and Barrow having a few more match winners which won the game. Sammut despite being 35 can crack any team at this level. Proven today and previously at Widnes.

Hopefully get a SL team at home if we are lucky.

We will see.

As I thought. Despite the poor start, a pretty routine win in the end.

Poor start ? Workington didn’t have the ball for the first 10-15 minutes & only some great scramble defence kept them to only one score.

I can only think he watched the wrong game, he's literally wrong about everything ha ha ..

The more he posts the more it seems he doesn't actually watch RL, doesn't know anything about the game or he's just here to cause trouble.
