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

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.

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.

I'm guessing the behind closed doors away one is Carlisle again?
