The saint (originally spelled St Elyn) whose name was given to a chapel of ease in the Hardshaw district of St Helens and from which the town gets its name. I've no idea when the apostrophe was dropped.'"
Thanks. Any idea on what her game involves?

No, you've got the wrong end of the stick again. She didn't have a game, she was game. Always up for it that one, like most scouse birds.

| According to the scholarly tome "Lives of the Saints" by Rev. Alban Butler, as republished in 1990, St Helen's "game" was organising the building of churches in Jerusalem, one on Mount Calvary and one on Mount Olivet. She was still on this game in her eighties and died in either AD 326 or AD 328 in Rome.
Definitely not a scouser, Liverpool wasn't founded until nearly 1,000 years later.

| As it would be tactless to mention that Wigan was first recorded as a place name some 350 years before St. Helens, I won't ( ).

Me too. Sorry got carried away.
And to answer the original query. No, I won't be going. Have witnessed two hammerings at Knowsley Road in recent years. Hope it's different this time at the cladless park for those who travel.

As Bob the Builder would say " Can we win this one, yes, we can"
We have a reasonable record at St Helens, much better than at home against them. The only danger is that they will be gearing up for the play-offs but if we have the 'Tony Rea II' mindset why not.
