| Quote Mark Preston Fan Club="Mark Preston Fan Club"expectations and excitement grew.'"
................and it's still there as far as i am concerned. I don't care what the one match wonders of Widnes think. We lost by five points on Sunday and played poorly. Our players are still as good as that 13 match winning streak suggests. I'm confident that we'll take our place in the Grand Final and with a steadier approach we'll win it. My main concern is next year. Others will get stronger and we must too but at least the language coming out of the club on the future playing front is positive to that end. I'm disappointed by our reaction on these boards but i'm as much amused at the Widnes reaction. If i was coming on here cold after a spell in solitary confinement i would automatically assume that the season had ended on Sunday and that Widnes had won their Grand Final.
Perhaps they have.

Thankyou for your sensible reply. Not sure I deserve one today!

| Quote Shutterbug="Shutterbug"That was my photo and was 1 from a series of 7 which all clearly show at no time did thackeray and the ball touch the line together, the next frame shows Thackerays momentum taking his arm forward but the ball staying put, the next shows his body moving forward over the ball and his hand/arm has lost contact all together with the ball, the ball is still short of the line, the next few frames show thackerays body and several fax players over the try line but the ball is under this lot and still short of the line.
you were robbed'"
I thought Widnes looked to have scored an identical one just before half-time but it wasn't given. From my vantage point (behind the sticks) it looked like the ball was on the line. Obviously the Widnes fans were 100 yards away so they couldn't see. I could be wrong but it looked OK to me. Anyone video the match?

| I've listened to the game again on Radio Leeds and now I've calmed down a bit I can have a bit of a chuckle at the commentary;
'[iThe drop goal's been kicked, the ref or touch judges don't seem to know if it's gone over so he's given it anyway!'
'Another penalty against Halifax but the ref doesn't seem to be giving any indication as to why they've been given'[/i
Plus, what was that arm signal for Rob's 'double movement try'. It looked like the arm signal for traveling in basketball
I'm not still booing before anybody starts, I thought it was quite funny in hindsight.

I'd need to dip it in Dettol after indulging in the type of women (I use the term loosely) that Blackpool attracts.
