That's what I meant. The term Marra is associated with people residing in/originating from Workington/Whitehaven and surrounding areas. However, some of our more radical fans tend to use different terms of affection when addressing players/supporters from Workington :D

Dunbarton is in Scotland.

Really?

As good as the other 2 were neither are in the same class as Farrelly, who I would say is far and away the best keeper we've had in the last 25 years.

What a f**king character! Tales used to abound around the 'Cottages' concerning his activities... :lol:

Great keeper, though! As were the other two...
Lionel Duffin was no slouch either...

Mark deegan was decent aswell!

In all fairness If we get Alan Martin to the club it's a shrewd peice of business.

I would say Alan Martin is a decent goalkeeper and would be happy with him back here.
