I think the Chairman of Barrow is doing a great job in bulling the match up. He's paying the players wages so has every right to lambast them. In a brave move - his comments about Matt Calland can only serve to gee up his players if they get on board. It could also have the adverse effect in winding Calland up too. I like it. Fighting talk from a colourful Chairman. Bring it on !

I don't know, I think it'll only gee our players up. Isn't he an ex-footballer or used to own a football club? Says it all really.

You'd think they were Man Utd.

“Matt Calland has said to the whole world that Halifax are the best team in this league by a country mile. We need to take that country mile and stick it right down his big mouth.”

I can almost hear the rattle being thrown out of the pram from here!

To me the most significant letter in his whole statement is the first one, "I".
This to me signifies that he sees the Barrow team as his current favorite toy and his players as merely employees. What he should have said is "We".

There is no "I" in team!

wouldn't it be awful to have your club run by such a disgusting person

Wonder which whistle happy blower we will have on Sunday. Ive checked the RFL's website & it's still only showing last weeks appointments. I can hazard a guess, Hicks or Childs!

I understand there have been problems with the RFL's server system recently. There were claims in one of the trade papers on monday this week that a hacker had got into the system and revealed via the internet Tony Smith's 19-man England squad for this weekend's game, the day before his red-faced press conference.
