Get the impression they've just signed them to stop them from signing for other sides like Leigh who were obviously going to be in the market for new players.

think we get the 3rd most fans for games dont dont full stats but im pritty sure oh and where not in a religation fight

You're joking, aren't you? We must have the smallest squad in the Championship (24) and no reserves.

We buy quality not quantity, we are gourmets not gourmands.

hardly surprising


the coyles and millward go together as much as cyril smith and hang gliding

5 signed rob roberts the fifth.

Maybe a good idea to get yourself a dictionary,
Dic* head

i had a lot of respect for the way the raiders went about their business last season, and the first part of this season, but these signings, coming after acquiring very good players like rooney and catic, are baffling at best and stupid at worst


its all going to end in tears

Got to agree Joanne.
Heard from a source close to the action at Barrow that Dave Clark was (allegedly) very unhappy about his chairmans interference in team affairs and particularly transfer policy. Heard that (allegedly) a number of recent signings were made against his wishes.
Seems to add up doesn't it?
As soon as Clark is pushed out of the door and an apparent 'yes' man is brought in, Johnston goes berserk on transfer deadline day!

I'd still love to know how they are doing on the salary cap. Barrow fans will no doubt say they are still way under it, but I can't see how. Top players like Catic, Rooney, Bracek, Luisi, Noone, etc. will not come cheap, and neither will the 'Oldham 5', for that matter. I wonder if Barrow are gambling heavily on a GF appearance this season, (and I would have fancied them until Widnes' re-emergence) then a points deduction next season wouldn't matter, as they had alrady ticked a SL application box?

Or is it like CC, in that they are all working for Mr. Johnston, and offereing to play for Barrow 'now and again' when not required to work for him?



As for Allen not joining us, well I'm not terribly disappointed, as I can think of other positions, where we are more exposed.

Funny thing is, had you lot signed any of these players they would be the dogs knackers !! Because Barrow signed them, none of them would get in any sides in the Championship. Makes me laugh !
