Quote ABP'="ABP'"You wouldnt even know they exist.
Theyre only claim to fame is the fact they hate Wigan, as highlighted last Saturday.
Their whole existance ie stadium, council etc is based round Wigan.
We should just do an Orrell RU and fling some cash about, boot them out of our LSV and make them play with Leigh East or Miners something. We could do with another little stadium for training/reserve games.'"
Nowt like an ill-informed 'umble to spout tripe!!
We are in 'rented accomodation' - just like the pies.
Why? Because we had to sell our ground to stop from going under - just like the pies!
You are free to use the LSV staduim whenever you want - we aren't fussed, as we get revenue from it!!
And to those of you that don't want us in - fine!! Stick with The Bronquins, and les Cats, and the Welsh, and Salford, and a 2/3 full ground - apart from 2 fixtures a season. As a business plan it's second to none!!
I have no argument with last night's result. We were out enthused by a very well drilled Batley team - fair play to them, and best of luck to them in the final.
Still - as the old cliche has it, we can concentrate on the league now - just like the pies!!
You'd better hope you go all the way, and win the GF now. Imagine how sore you'd feel if you rattled off the league* with some aplomb, only to slip up in the play-offs......although you are used to that 'choking at the final hurdle' thing these days, aren't you?? Will you all be growing 'taches, to shave off the week before the GF again this time??
*= Do you remember in the old days when winning the league was the biggie.....and the Premiership was the end of season irrelevence? until SL, when other clubs - particularly Saints, started winning it - and it then became dismissed as 'the old hub-cap'??
