I was among the Barrow supporters yesterday and thought it was a cracking game. You have beaten us 3 out of 3 so you must be the best (at the moment). For me this is the best Barrow side we have had since the early 80s and I've been supporting since the 50s.

Unfortunately this sport needs somebody to bank role any Club and Des Johnston may not be popular with everybody but he has brought us a good side which we have yearned for for years.

We gave Wigan an almighty scare in the CC and our gates are increasing steadily. I think if yesterdays game had been at Craven Park we would have topped 3000.

I just hope we can play you twice more in the NRC and GF. Both games will be televised and will show Sky that there is life outside SL.

Quote: FAX of Life "If he was the (nearly?) bald guy in the suit, Then I saw him actualy blow a kiss to the guys who shouted a him - nothing else.'"


He did true then when I shouted 'give me £10K and I would play for him' he stuck up the finger.
Bit childish really.

despite my wigan related username and display picture, i am also a barrow fan, attending all home games and was also lucky enough to travel to halifax. Personally i think can be easy for those who have less experience of des to judge him as being arrogant and O.T.T, but i can ensure his critics that he is a top bloke. He is not took a backward step in relation to supporting barrow, he is very passionate and displays enthuisiasm what i think the sport needs. Being stood outside a pub in halifax an hour or so before kick off, he drove past the mixture of fax and raiders fans, beeping his horns and sticking his thumb up to all fans, no matter who they were supporting. He is a great man, and should be applaued for his passion towards the sport.

He obviously has a of passion, but some of his comments were a bit OTT.

Anyway, his comments about Matt and Matt's comments are all water under the bridge. How your own players respond to his comments about them is up to them.

I think he's redeemed him self to most on here.
