Sounds like stilltheman goes around various pubs asking anyone he finds if they've heard anything about trouble occurring.
Popular side since '03.

Personally, I admire stilltheman's one man campaign to keep the ale houses of Barrow open. Very community minded of him, large ones being given notwithstanding.

Or the Barrow Arms? Popular with Wrexham fans, I believe.

good shout - they seam to have great scouts given that at least 3 of their players have been picked up by teams in this league since Christmas....
maybe we'll get a good early view of the next ones and we can build a good relationship with them so we can get the next one :)

Great shout. We've had good games against their supporters side aswell. Quite like Northwich me. Be good having a feeder club now we are MASSIVE!

Must have been some team (remember they pushed runaway L2 champions Northampton close in the FA Cup). Williams and Bennet to us,Astles a first-teamer at Chester,and a lad called Clarke has just moved up two levels to Stockport.

Looks like Carlisle is definitely in the offing.
