Blackpool beat Sheffield in the final.

Thankyou mate.Some widnes reserve players in blackpool team.Anyway i think it not worth taking serious i would not as be worried of injuries.

The Leigh players and coaches seemed to enjoy it on Saturday night. Maybe a few of the players weren't 100% on Sunday morning?

I take it you drive around the rest of the NW with your eyes firmly shut

Enjoyable weekend of RL .
Needs a touch up on when its played (perhaps bring the Nines/NRC final forward to June).

Although the Fylde day went reasonably well it added hardly anyone to the stadium to watch the 9s finals due to logistics of geting from one venue to another. Both 9s finals were played in front of a couple of hundred fans at best wouldn`t surprise me if some 9s fans missed the finals as we left Fylde before the matches finished traveled quickly by car and only just got there before the 9s plate final started.
I think if they run this comp next year they need to learn a few lessons .Especially the takeing care that there are better facilities for the players and not bother trying to force people into a 2 day event.
I enjoyed the weekend as the weather was nice. I asked Nigel Woods "how come the 9s dinner due to be held Sat night was cancelled with 4 days notice" He replied he did not know it had been but would make enquiries.

DISCO Dave Armitstead ,turned up after the first match ,and was on the pitch for the next 2 ,i wont sya he played because ,he hasnt PLAYED for months now.,for me its TAXI FOR ARMISTEAD.

He only played the one game to be fair charlie.

He might have been sitting or standing on the side for the last one on saturday but he didnt enter the field of play for the York game, he was only involved for the Gateshead game.

Its a competiton that (whether we like it or not) was there to be played in and won.
We are currently going down the league and off the field we couldn't sell a Meat & Pater pie to a Wiganer whose been in a vegetarian food only jail for 6 years, hardly time for a celebration (why not do it out of sight if the club wants to do a team bonding booze up ).
I was lucky I got in for nowt and its local to me, some people from Leigh will have travelled up and paid.

If the players want (and in fairness its a big IF as we don't know they did) to go out and get hammered perhaps they could follow Blackpool Panthers and Widnes's lead and gone out AFTER they had won something.
