I like a lot of Northern lads I used to spend Sunday afternoon watching  rugby league  . Barrow were my team  .Now Barrow were always known as the SHIPBUILDERS until a few years ago when to Carlilse team went bust and merged with Barrow . Now for some reason BARROW took there nickname THE BORDER RAIDERS ,a lot of teams are now using names like they are AMERIACAN teams .LEIGH are called the CENTURIANS Wigan -WARRIORS fans used to identify with there teams as freinds from yards ,pits etc would support there LOCAL teams and local lads from the pits etc would play for those teams BILLY BOSTON ,WILLE HORNE JIM MILLS etc great names of the past who after a game would share a laugh and a pint with the lads . Now as with football SUPER LEUGUE has taken the game away from the masses I have watched a number of games on T.V lately and I am sure most trys come from forward passes the game like the players are not the same anymore  .Who did you support,who were your heros  and what do you think of Rugby League now ,THE FORUM AWAITS
