“However they have made clear their minimum criteria for entry and I’m comfortable that we we’ve met that to date."

I find this line interesting... does this simply refer to criteria of winning the NR cup and a GF appearance or something else?

John Wilkinson seemed to suggest some time ago that the RFL had spoken to them about improvements they NEEDED to make in order to apply next time around. Des Johnston was complaining some months ago that the RFL had spoken to him and informed him that their on field achievements would count for nothing unless they substantially improved Craven Park. We know about the letters sent to the 'infamous five' regarding the state of their ground development plans and the warning housed within them.

It increasingly looks likely that grounds will be one of the main focus points of the next round putting us front and centre for a franchise spot.

Quote: SRC "The Barrow forum is here ......
You really do not like our club with these constant side swipes. I honestly cannot understand your obsession posting 'huge losses' because we are running a full junior set up. Please tell me why you continue to ignore the fact that SOC spent over one million of his own money in bringing the club up to scratch? That is why we posted these losses, it's money invested into the club that SOC does not expect to see returned. We are however close to a million turnover, therefore if that continues this financial year our profit / loss will not be so 'huge' as you are so quick to point out all the time. You seem to conveniently neglect this fact in order to continually suit your own agenda against us.

As for this freebies thing, we have an occasional promotion, that is all. Just like you, the vast vast majority pay to get in for every game.

At the moment your club has it right on the field but that could change, in every other area you are miles behind us and that is what grates with you really isn't it.

I pledge £10 to the Prescott fund (at it again) that Widness will report a loss for 2009/10 of > £200k.

If you disagree then match the pledge. oh and dont forget you made a loss more than your turnover last time AND 'investment' cost does NOT affect profit.

League position counts for nothing if your trophy cabinet is still empty come the end of the season. Still if your happy being 'runner up' and winners of the Fairplay League then your ambitions are to be commended.

In any case, I really love how all these rival fans come on here claiming to be experts on our 'weaker than last year' squad but yet cannot back up the claims with anything....

Congratulations on finishing above Widnes.Did you award yourselves a trophy for that,one of those tacky plastic things from the high street,usually awarded to pub darts players?I bet there was an open top bus parade through the town as well.
