Yeah Simpson loves to mention we train in Manchester for reasons I don't fully understandMisterPleasant wrote: ↑Wed Jun 26, 2024 4:33 pmI think it refers to Simpson's comment that we're not really a Cumbrian club.
In one respect I have to agree with Barrow not being in Cumbria.Cumbria was only an administrative area that was set up.under the Heath Government.I was born in 1954 in Barrow-in-Furness Lancashire.We in Barrow are now part of Westmorland and Furness.Cumbria as an administrative area has now ceased to exist,so in a way I suppose Simpson may be right.Anyway we have had anything in common with people from.that area.We have more closer ties with Lancaster and Preston.Having said all that are we really bothered about a manager whose views don,t really count anyway.I am hoping when we do meet we show him who the better team is and shut him up once and for all.MisterPleasant wrote: ↑Wed Jun 26, 2024 4:33 pmI think it refers to Simpson's comment that we're not really a Cumbrian club.

People will have their views but an LA postcode just means in the vicinity of Lancaster.Pedro wrote: ↑Thu Jun 27, 2024 9:55 amSimpson is right my postcode is Lancashire.Methuselah wrote: ↑Wed Jun 26, 2024 8:39 pm

This was mentioned at the qna, PH seemed annoyed at the leaks (as they can draw unwanted attention) End of the day this forums hosted on a server, (presume owned by Ste Story?) where the admin identify any IP, as each account is connecting to that server and there’s plenty of software tracking tools available. Let’s not bite the hand that’s feeding and let the club do the announcements. Also it benefits the traffic on the website which can help with better advertising revenue/ opportunities etc.
Don’t think it is Ste Story’s job to stop leaks being posted or identity the people involved - I’d say that the club need to sort it as they should be able to Identify who has such info and when and work out who the mole isBombadel wrote: ↑Fri Jun 28, 2024 8:58 pmThis was mentioned at the qna, PH seemed annoyed at the leaks (as they can draw unwanted attention) End of the day this forums hosted on a server, (presume owned by Ste Story?) where the admin identify any IP, as each account is connecting to that server and there’s plenty of software tracking tools available.

So what’s the point in having Mods then? It’s like saying wiki leaks had no accountability in that scenario.Stephen Leonard wrote: ↑Fri Jun 28, 2024 10:33 pmDon’t think it is Ste Story’s job to stop leaks being posted or identity the people involved - I’d say that the club need to sort it as they should be able to Identify who has such info and when and work out who the mole isBombadel wrote: ↑Fri Jun 28, 2024 8:58 pm

As I was born in Barrow-in-Furness Lancashire that will do for me.MisterPleasant wrote: ↑Wed Jun 26, 2024 4:33 pmI think it refers to Simpson's comment that we're not really a Cumbrian club.
