I realise they gave good coverage to us as a non-league team but whats the excuse now? It should be 50/50. Id love to get to League one and see how they play that one (not this season). Oh and still no FM coverage for barrow when Both teams play. Come on guys, its Radio Cumbria not Radio Carlisle.

Oh dear this old chestnut again. We still get and have always had excellent coverage from Radio Cumbria and IMO nothing has changed this season. Carlisle beat top of the league Newport comprehensively and have now moved up into the play off positions. Quite right the station should focus on them more last night after we lost 1.0

Also most people, now crying:
'Radio Cumbria don't give us any coverage'

Anyway when it all changed in 1974 ( I think) it was said the changes are all for administrative purposes and that the natural historical counties can remain. Therefore we are Lancastrians and Carlisle is in Cumberland. Sorted.

There are plans afoot for yet another change as we could become Morecambe Bay Watchers. Like last time we won't get a vote and there won't be a shot fired in anger. The only notable differences being it will be mandatory to walk round in revealing red swimwear and we might not get the fantastic radio coverage we currently enjoy. https://www.nwemail.co.uk/news/18832615 ... ep-closer/

I see Barrow council is to vote on the proposal on November, 5th. I hope you're not planning anything, er, explosive in the cellars of the Town Hall, Wintergreen.
