Maybe after Coopers scathing rants about the training facilities last year, Wild was 'encouraged' to say how good they were in his blog.
Or more likely it was another case of Cooper making excuses for his own inadequacies, which he tended to do quite a lot! ;)

Is Barrow the only club in the EFL which doesn't train in or close by it's town/city base?

Is it the only club isolated a hour away from the motorway?

Norwich City.
Not even comparable really is it. Players on millions a year. Would you move to barrow for a few grand a week?

YES!
It’s a absolute none starter having a training ground in barrow. Miles off better where we are now. Couldn’t give a toss if they trained in London

What have players' wages to do with a question of distance from the motorway?

The question wasn't how much the players were paid, it was about the distance from a motorway. Ipswich Town probably qualifies as well.

Plymouth, Norwich, Ipswich, Peterborough say no.
