All clubs have fans who walk. I know a couple of Wigan season ticket holders (who live in Barrow and are Barrovians ) and they always leave the JJB with 2-3 minutes to go, no matter what the score, to beat the traffic. They even left with 2 mins to go at the weekend when Wigan were only 2 points ahead v Catalans !

It would have been no different if Barrow had won - there would have been plenty of Widnes fans heading for the car park.

It's a real shame that Barrow get very little credit for how we've performed this season. OK, money has been spent, but we had 10 locals on the pitch in the Final. They are the real backbone of the team and long may it continue.

In 2005 we were promoted to NL1. We won 1 game all season and averaged crowds of 800-odd. We only had 7 players on the books just weeks before the 2006 NL2 season.

This season we have got within 10mins of knocking Wigan out of the Challenge Cup (played in front of a full house), are currently 2nd in the Championship (on merit), have reached our first final in 26 years and ourleague average is 2,200.

If you'd have told me this at the start of 2006 I'd have sent the men in straight jackets round !

Well said Col, 160 mile round trip to not show support for your team when it matters

Spoke to a fair few Barra marra's, and they were mostly sound, with the exception of a few tools who mouthed off, but liek I say mostly good rl people who know their stuff and are very easy to get along with. Although please refrain from spilling your cans of 'skol' all over my brand new pair of Gazelles, although looking back that was quite amusing on platform at Preston stn

Made 'some' noise throughout the game and before hand in the pubs and bars, but they did only appear to have one song, which is a shame.

I'd say a good three thousand though. good bunch and I wish them well, but they deffo need to sort their taste in lager out though

BLOODY WIGAN

Stood with the Wigan fans and wore their Wigan shirts. Unbelieveable isn't it !

Well that's different.
