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 |

So where exactly are you going to play a tournament needing 2 pitches involving 40 odd games in jan/feb ? , and would anybody go to watch given the possible bad weather
7 's in Union works because they play it in their off season , the summer
We now play in summer , making no room for this type of event
Unless you use your reserves , then fine , but the RFL requested 1 st team players
This event was originally planned to be held in Stanley park |

| Quote: The Leyther "Thanks for that Dave.
Seems to be quite a few people saying that it's an enjoyable day but being played at the wrong time of the season, RFL take note?'"
As part of the RFL plans to expand the game, my vote goes for the comp to be played in Tenerefe in March.
It's a winner.

You just said it. The LSV. Use the athletics pitch and maybe the 3G pitch. We have a hotel/hotels very close and a town centre full of pubs. A good idea to have just before the grand finals. |

I hope that score line is not true - its only 9 mins per half! If they had been playing for the full 80 minutes we would have conceded over 200 points!
I know our defence is bad but...  |

It is not hard in 7/9's to run up scores like that once one team is chasing scores they tend to lose possesion very easily

| Quote: mr. chairman "how did leon brennan go for rochdale'"
He went well i thought, rochdale won two games today, after a heavy nite out round blackpool, think they should go out b4 every game  .
Our defence against sheffield was shocking, think ridyard thought he was playing tick and pass. how a team can concede 50 points in 18 mins is unreal, was embarressing watchin, the highest score of tourny conceded by at least 18 points  |

| Conceding 50 points in 18 minutes is some effort, must be said |

| Quote: Starbug "Has it ?
Do you know anybody who has gone
I do know it has upset a few Widnes fans
And to tell the truth , that is not the point I was making
From a club/team point of view being forced to take a 1 st team squad to play in a competition like this when almost every club is involved in very important matches in the next few weeks [ Leigh fighting for our Championship lives ] is barmy
The NRC final has become a lot more important than ever before because of the winners ' ticking the SL application box ' so it probably doesn't need any help
Plus as I said , Blackpool is a dump , I dont like the place , never have , never will'"
The Leigh players and coaches seemed to enjoy it on Saturday night.  Maybe a few of the players weren't 100% on Sunday morning? |
