Mate, this sounds lame as I type it but if I had £100 quid spare I certainly would. Having been made redundant earlier this year though my cash is very much spoken for. I will buy you a pint though in the South Stand Lounge on Thursday?

Any more personal insults and there will be action taken.

This is a general warning.

I despair, I really do

RL is a momentum game. The effort we showed tonight was excellent. We got a couple of early bad calls and they got piggybacked down the field. Barrow are a very good team with some excellent players. If they get a roll on it's hard to stop. If they don't and we get a roll on, then we're hard to stop. Why is that so difficult to understand?

We could have got back in at 15-6, but desperation passing which didn't come off and they were away. And we were fighting at 9-0 but they got a lucky interception.

It's just the way it is. Calland out? God give me strength. I could ******* swear sometimes.

With Marillion Man all the way on this.

CALLAND IN.

Watched a different game to most of us on here and certainly me then! - You are Ross Strudwick . . . . . . . .I'm not wrong

if barrow had taken all their chances it could have been 50+. We weren't in it and the fact we got back to 9 points was nothing to do with our performance.

So what the hell, smith, we got tubbed, that's life. The whinos lost at home to Salford, saints to cats ... I could reel off a whole load of crap performances by every team in the flaming sporting world ... Man U at Burnley. If you can't hack defeat then take up knitting or summat and stop bleeding whinge whinge whinging.

That's their fault for not taking their chances.......


They got the rewards of a home fixture for finishing higher than us, next week is our turn.

I hate my username sometimes

too right.

put the result in perspective, no championship side would have gone to cumbria feeling truely confident, it was always going to be their day.

but guess what, as the man says our day has yet to come

If it was a one off you would have a point. But when was the last good performance you saw from us? There is something worrying about the manner of the defeat tonight for me.

All are mostly one off defeats which is easier to accept if you see an improvement the week(s) after. Us fans are fickle. Im bemoaning our lack of effort, what is so wrong with that? - We were not just thumped tonight but I feel embarrased by Barrow. Thats not acceptable but I'll still turn up next week. The do-gooders on this board really dislike differing opinions and that is sad. We all have a point to get across and its all passion just communicated differently. But certain elements on here appear to be saying if you contribute negatively sod off our site!! Come on flower give me a smile

I thought being a good supporter was getting behind the team when we hit a bad patch. If Calland or the players were crap then what went before the bad patch wouldn't have happened. So they aren't crap, and whatever has happened then I'm sure they're working hard at it to resolve it. The last thing they want is getting barracked for going thru a lean spell.

Fax fans are no better than band wagon Man U type fans. I'm ashamed reading this message board tonight, embarrased even. I'm off here till after the Widnes/fev match. With the odd few exceptions, you all do my head in. Goodnight crap fans .... till next week.

Sorry guys, I think we’ve missed a trick here.
To get in the big game mood last night I watched Fax v Widnes from earlier in the season. 17 men played their hearts and souls out. Tonight the same team (give or take) played like a bunch of under 7’s learning the game, but with a lot less enthusiasm.

We should take a leaf out of Barra’s book.

Move Matt to no 2 & bring in a top name to finish the season off on a high, winning next Thurs & again on the 4th of Oct. Then sack the top name and bring Matt back for next season.
Then halfway through next season move Matt to No 2 again (a bit sooner than with 2 games to go please) and bring in a top name again to win us the League, Cup & GF.
That way we all win & Matt gets the experience everyone says he needs.

Just to explain seeing as emotions are running a little bit high on the scale tonight…..The above is tongue in cheek!

barrow started well and put us under pressure.
then we had bad luck with bannister n smith
then poor inteception
got back in game and unlucky not to score through smith.
they went up other end and scored.
they were better team on the night and won
well done barrow
now its up to the coach and FANS to get behind the team next week.
c,mon fax.
