You do know what the CS stands for dont ya?
Champion Sumo Gas, it allows the players to wrestle in a fighting like manner whilst also improving tackling technique and overall morale.
Quoted in the Vikingman book of champions - PM if you want a copy.

| Quote ="Fax Machine"I would be very, very wary of this guy. From reading other posts it states that he is into football and is a big Man U fan.
I get the impression that he wants to be the chairman of a top level sports team to boost his obviously sizeable ego. Now, I don't know what he's worth but he would have to be mega-wealthy to buy a Premiership football club but a top level RL club comes a lot cheaper. The thing is though, in RL it isn't just about money because even at the top level players don't earn enough for it to be just about the money. Leeds have always been cash rich but underachieved for years.
It sounds to me like if he doesn't get a rapid return on his investment he will spit his dummy right across the Irish Sea.'"
Your ignorance is breathtaking. Des is BARROW through and through. All he wants is success for Barrow RL - the team he has supported since childhood. He is interested in both rugby and football - is that a crime ??
He has openly stated that he doesn't expect any monetary return on his input - just wants success.
What do you suggest ??? "Sorry Des, but we don't want your money or your time at the club - just in case you do a runner" ???
Get real.
Regarding the comments from a Widnes fan about not having a chance of a SL license, well, we'll just have to see won't we.
One thing's for sure, we won't be going bust (unlike some) and no-one will be telling us when and where we play our home games.

No its not a crime I love both and for my sins Leeds United is my football team. As for Widnes fans saying Barrow have no chance of a franchise in a couple of years take no notice of them I dont. Looking foward to what will be a very tough game on sunday.

Well he needs to take a course in man management then. He speaks to his players as if he is a Victorian mill owner. Do they have to doff their caps when they see him?

So Barrow decided that they would be the tv match next week n Sky didn't have any say.Get real the only people who have any say in which game goes on tv are Sky.We quite happy for you to be on sky,sunday match guarantees a bigger crowd n better atmosphere.If this guy has so much money to invest in Barrow could someone mention floodlights and lights in toilets to him when he is bragging about some cash he has going spare.

| I dont think its Callands mouth you need to shut up. The last thing your team needed was Fax being wound up and thanks to your owner he might just have done that as will as ing his own team off.

| I think the proof is in the pudding and that the stress is most definitely not getting to them.
My tuppence:
It took them alot of nerve to comeback from what was looking like it could have turned into a thrashing. I think any cup finals between us and barrow are going to be cracking games, and I'm kind of glad we had the second half shock as it I think it will mean we will take them alot more seriously when/if we meet again.
They are turning out to be a cracking side this season, I thought their defence was impressive yesterday. I also they were pretty sly with their kicking game always seeming to have Miles running around alot more than usual.
As for the quotes from their chairman I think, along with Callands comments, they should be taken for what they are, banter, bigging the game up, adding a bit of character to the sport, a club level terrace chant.
Obviously swearing at fax supporters is not on, but I didn't see it and it seems a bit out of character from what fax supporters who spoke to him have said. Maybe be he was aggrovated, somebody threw something at him?

| I think if Fax play for the full 80 we will be too strong for Barrow if we play them again (and we should). We switched off yesterday thinking the game was won - all credit to them for coming back into it though.

I agree and I think a positive from yesterday is that it should stop us from switching off again, against them in future, during the matches that count.
