What kind of viewing figures does the Cumbrian area get for SL/CC/SLS? Would it be worth moving a low key England game up there? Seems to me we still need do more to help the Celtic Crusaders achieve at least some of the success Catalans have had.






Me and my mates are proud inventors of the "We only needed 12 men" chant first heard after that Ashes Test at Wembley when Davies got that try in the corner and Edwards got sent off. Okay, the beer helped too.

Workington were best placed in 95 , since then Haven have been best placed for the last 5/6 years

None of the clubs are individually big enough and they will never merge , if a ' new ' club was formed somebody would suffer either the new club or all the existing ones [ a few fans would support both a championship and SL club but most would support only one ] not viable

Only chance is if somebody with serious money [ over 30 million ] turns up and finances one of the present clubs

Otherwise never happen

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

I can confirm that Barrow has been in Cumbria since 1974.
