Quote Freddie Miller.="Freddie Miller."Carlisle were also involved in that proposed merger to form a team called Cumbria with it's home ground at Workington.
Incidentally Workington Town had some great players when I first started watching the game in the 40's. Gus Risman, Billy Ivison and Tony Paskins readily spring to mind and the team had success in the early 50's. While in the 50's the great Hull team of that era had 3 players that became legends at the club and played for Cumberland in county games against Lancashire and Yorkshire.'"
Hi Freddie, coincidentally Hulls historian Bill Dalton, has just done an article on one of Hulls great Cumbrian players Robert “Bob” Taylor, it’s on the clubs website now, Bob was born in Barrow, and it’s a nice read.
