Did you know that a local bethlehen farmer brought a fourth gift to baby Jesus? It was a bowl of lobby. This fact got lost in the scribes and never made it to Matthew 2:11

Joseph kicked him out of the stable for interfering with the donkey.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Unfortunatley the farmer had put carrots in the lobby , and baby jesus , or John Woods as he later became known prefered his lobby without the orange vegetable

In 2 years time you'll see why we're a giant.

Footballs seem's to vary from 9-30 depending on how debts are settled and who / how new owners come into place.'" Psst.
3 losses=6 points.

| Just to point out the in the Championship the punishment is actually much harsher than the one that will be dished out Crusaders. When Widnes were deducted 9 points this was in a season of 18 league games so the punishment was 9 out of a possible 54 points available = 16.67%. Crusdaers will get 6 points out of a possible 54 = 11.11%. In the interests of fairness shouldn't SL sides be deducted proportionally the same as a Championship club? As Starbug points out - not that a points deduction really matters to a SL club though.

of coure the crowds wil pick up due to : a) probably about 90% travelling/visiting supporters (except Catalans & Quins) and b)10% ish through increased local interest - the Vikings fan base won't actually increase that much so when they revert back to the Championship the crowds will be back to 2000ish -
