Are the rumours the astonishing meltdown by the BBCRC summariser in the show after the match?
I tuned into RC yesterday as l was outside in a rare fit of DIY activity. They started with Carlisle content despite Barrow being higher in the league, and higher if an alphabetical hierarchy were to be in place. Afterwards there was the usual deep dive analysis of all current vicissitudes at Brunton Park and l may have missed them but l didn't hear one text re Barrow having even sent one in myself. Okay you could argue Carlisle were 'top story' and there was adequate Barrow content in the show but as things stand today Carlisle will be non-league next season and we will be EFL2 - what then of RC's hierarchy?

I think Adam's rather resigned tone when addressing the texts (or rather lack of) said it all yesterday. Maybe yours Wintergreen hadn't yet landed in his in-box when he was on-air? It's an excruciating listen whether Carlisle win, lose or draw. Our man Adam apart that is. The silent boycott continues. Can only hope last nites meltdown is nothing compared to the one those cretins endure when we put 5 unanswered goals into them later on in the month. If only!

Based on our historical record of kick starting other teams seasons I wouldn’t hold your breath. That said our luck against Carlisle must surely be set to change let’s hope nows the time.

It is written. They win and we save them. Apart from that l hope Whingy can install sufficient 'intensity' into his men so that we somehow save ourselves. Dull it aint.

I must apologise Wintergreen your WhatsApp was the only one which I received from barrow supporters post game so instead of just doing reaction to one text I interviewed midfielder MJ Williams

Fair enough Adam I'm not bothered about that but l am quite shocked to hear there were no other texts re Barrow. Have they given up? Is there a boycott? We know you have to be professional and diplomatic in your job which you always are. God knows what Lummy & Co say off mic! The weekly soap opera at Brunton Park is a grim listen and l fancy they are maybe Eastenders to our Coronation St.

Mr Lumsden as Phil Mitchell? Is it him shouting Leave it aht in the background of the Carlisle Manager's interview via Twitter?
(I sent a text but was a general comment mire aimed at the Carlisle meltdown. Don't know if it was read as I missed five minutes of the final hour.)
EDIT: ...more aimed... (Left original mistake, has a certain resonance.)

One of the aforementioned will definitely go down then it’s a lotto for the other unfortunate team. Just hoping we do enough to keep away from any relegation dirge.

Same with Morecambe. No doubt both will beat us, and Accrington, and Fleetwood…..

We wont, if we play anything like we did that second half on Saturday. I can forgive players being basically crap, however I can't accept just 'throwing in the towel' like we we did at the weekend, totally unacceptable.
