Northampton v Barrow Match Thread

[Pedro]

One positive with Carlisle getting more coverage than us is listening to the despair in Simpsons voice as he's now realised he hasn't got enough quality in his squad to stay in L1
Seriously though, it was a bit disappointing being second fiddle to them on the Monday night Sport show on RC after a fantastic away win when they played poorly and lost

Could you imagine phoning the Samirtans and Paul Simpson picking up the phone.

I’m not sure if it’s possible or within the powers of BBCRC programme editors but on ifollow we are often listening to the Carlisle build up literally right up to kick off. Not sure if there is a reason why they can’t join the Barrow commentary earlier so we can get the build up.

I still think the team that's caused an FA Cup "upset" by defeating opposition from a league above on their own ground and playing pretty impressively should be top of the show

You are correct, they choose not to do it. Radio Carlisle it will always be as a lot of people on here recognise, or are all these people all wrong ?

Barrow fans get wound up cos they think Carlisle get to much time on the airwaves.

Easy solution, stop listening to Radio Cumbria and get your respective managers viewpoints from other media outlets.
Congratulations on an excellent away win btw.

That's exactly what I do these days. I don't put it on anymore. Unless something changes I won't be listening.

I start pre-match and post-match on iplayer, but put it on pause, then go to it about 2.45 and 5.45 and fast forward to the interesting bits.

Fantastic result today, Banked 41k prize money & we get a 40% share of the gate money ( is that right ) 18 quid in wasn’t it? After VAT. Got to be 15/18K won’t it?.

Any split only takes place after the home side deducts their costs, so our share of the gate money will be a lot lower than that. The prize money is a great boost to the coffers.

I completely forgot about that so your right, Still a decent wedge & another 10K tonight

Because it would mean having two separate sport shows meaning having to have more staff presence

Not meaning to miss the point of what you’ve said there Adam but I followed the game on ifollow tonight and you were connected literally as the players came out of the tunnel. Sorry I know you’re not involved with the decision making.

That’s an iFollow issue and is nothing to do with bbc radio Cumbria

All iFollow does is take our radio feed

Radio Cumbria had the Barrow Social then Jason Walker talking in the lead up right until KO against Liverpool tonight.
