Congrats to all at Barrow from the club to the fans to the players, it was a superb day out and a great occasion.

Your team did you proud and played with a passion and style most Wigan fans would kill to see. At 24-20 I was very worried as I really thought that the impossible might just happen.

Best wishes for the rest of the season and I hope it is not too long before our next visit up to Barrow

couldn,t go so settled for mancs commentry
anyway from what i heard, it sounded like a cracking cup tie and barrow matched wigan in many parts on the field
great effort from barrow and hope to see you in superleague in the near future. well played and best of luck for this season and seasons thereafter.

well done : Mon Apr 06, 2009 12:24 am  

From me too very well done.

Don,t get too upbeat though it,ll be a tough weekend for your lads unless you have a big squad.

Best game ive seen in ages(being a town fan thats not surprising ),thought barrow could have sneaked it near the end but the dissalowed try knocked the stuffing out of them neverthe less it was a fantastic effort by the raiders and also a mention must go to the wigan fans who travelled up in great numbers and really got behind their team when it would have been easy to get on their backs and slag them off when being given the runaround by barrow,all in all a great day out and heres hoping the raiders can keep it up against haven on friday

Well done to all from Barrow,

Could not make the game but listened some of it on the radio.

Your a credit to the game.

Super league needs cumbria and sack off S Wales IMO.

Again guys well done and good luck going forward!!

Thanks a lot Wigan fans, was a great day wasnt it? I just hope some of the Barrow people come back to more games now, as we've got a pretty good squad who play good attractive rugby, but are pretty mean in defence too. Was great to see the old ground full up, god knows how they got 22000 in for their record crowd, must have been crazy!!

A big Thanks to everyone at Barrow for a great day one i will not forget for a long time. That will go down as one of my best trips of the season was warmly welcomed at the ground and in Weatherspoons before and after the game you deserve to win the title this year hope to get up there again soon maybe for the Leigh game.

I know, hard to believe but true, was against Salford in the 50s/60s i think. Would be a tad dangerous i think!!
