The Barrow & District league varies in standard because it is usually A teams that play in it, so it depends on which first teams have no game or games called off. Askam are a good club with good facilities. I hear that some players that left them when they dropped out of the conference will be going back to them so they should have a decent side. If thats true, they will be comfortable in division 3, but that would make 4 teams from Cumbria in that division and that could cause problems with clubs travelling.

Quote: mmp "maybe Woolston shouldnt have had to either?

Having had Hindley come back in Div 6 / 5 and score 100 points on some teams it's damaging to the development of new clubs to throw such clubs into the bottom - and probably doesnt help them either! Even worse a Cumbrian team - travelling to Cumbria is an expense for any club but probably more of an issue for a new club which will have less established revenue streams and little by way of financial reserves. Can imagine clubs not wanting to go, and definately not wanting to go if its likley they will get a beating from a team that is actually well established having just missed out on winning the Barrow and District League...

I'm assuming the Barrow League is of a better standard than the bottom end of NWC???'"


No it doesnt - it's dull as dish water and when you do get a game against a higher standard of opposition your well and truely undercooked icon_sad.gif

Didnt they reorganise it last year so they moved mainly second teams into div 6?

no - we were put there. I believe and I'm not certain about this but the difference between Hindley and Orrell was a a possible admin error ....

i really hope theyb keep the 2nd teams seperate again, especially as there are a couple of new 2nd teams coming in.

it'll also mean Div 5 can be a genuine league for new(ish) first teams with Hindley (not newish!) and Waterhead (a 2nd team to a conf club) moving up, probably Cobras too given they will be starting a 2nd team, it will hopefully mean we get a much more even competition in 5. The new clubs of recent years (Bury, Westhoughton and Chorley) will have an extra year of experience, Bolton, Bulldogs and Newton are not massively better than the three who finished bottom while Eccleston and Wild Boars will start as favourites. Can't see the new Little Hulton, Accrington or Shaw teams being hugely better than before. In the main, it'll actually be a division of clubs who have only been formed a few years if they decide to go this way...

I'd go with a division of:
Wild Boars
Eccleston
Bolton
Wigan Bulldogs
Newton
Chorley
Bury
Westhoughton
Little Hulton
Shaw
Accrington
Blackpool S (as they didnt get a single point in Div 4 last year)

Of course, that sees three teams go up, and doesnt account for Askam, but there are a lot of clubs asking about moving divisions higher up the league so it might be possible.

Got to agree with that, Hindley and Rochdale wiped the floor with everyone, and towards the end if i remember rightly a lot of teams didnt show up to play them. Newton i think are going to struggle for a team in all honesty, the lads at training i can guarantee that 5 or 6 of them come a match day wont be there, and a few core players have gone elsewhere. Fingers crossed though. icon_razz.gifRAY:

New Springs are in big trouble aswell, a few players left to try their hand in the National Conference and poor numbers at training. Despite being promoted last season we're really struggling at the minute and I doubt we will see the start of the season.
