You need to get out more

| The WBT buses all used to have numerical codes - the one in this pic has code 44, from its reg plate.
I learnt them all as a schoolboy travelling across town to St Gregs every day. Think I needed to get out more  |

My rhymes and records they don't get played
Because my records and rhymes they don't get made
And if you rap like me you don't get paid
And if you roll like me you don't get laid:6355.jpg |

And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg |

Anybody remember Fred Dibnah's 'Right said Fred' Greenall's ad from a similar time, which was filmed in Warrington, at the time he brought down the chimney on Howley (where Riverside Retail Park is now)? |

I wish I was in Greenall Whitley land
Where beer is cool, and hearts so warm
The girls I gathered round
Perhaps they're missing me like I'm missing them
The games, the songs, the laughs, the games we used to play
But most of all, Greenall Whitley most of all...

"The Warrington people hadn't had success for a few years, but there's no speccy in the world as good. They are very knowledgeable and appreciative of hard work. What they like is honesty. They want the team to try; if they fail they fail, but they expect honesty. They know when players don't put it in."
Mike Gregory in 'Biting Back':26672.jpg |

I've still got a couple of GWL car stickers, plus a Greenall Whitley belt c/w heavy buckle! (although the leather belt does seem to have shrunk somewhat!!)

[b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag.
[b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg |
