His brother Elliot, 12 goals in 31 midfield appearances for a good York City side. Not scared to tackle or be tackled unlike his older brother. We signed the wrong one.

Newby is a coward, end of. Couldn’t tackle a good Sunday Dinner. Can’t shoot, and could get shoved of the ball by my granny.

Oh for the days when the eleven on the park actually wanted to play for the town they were representing and not just picking up their ill gotten gains at the end of the the week. Too many mercenaries out there taking a quick buck from a footballing outpost, including a couple of our own.

You must have done a personal head count, I only got the number from a a census report on the internet. Silly me.

According to AI, Carlisle population approximately 110,000, with average football attendance of 7482. Barrow population approximately 55000, with average football attendance of 3413, 7th best in league two. Seems about right. Just over 6% of both towns population going to the football.
