| Quote: Bluenosewarrior "In the best interest of players and club.
The Challenge Cup fixtures have been released and many will see that we are not taking part this year.
For those that remember last year, we drew a home game against Leigh Centurians. Unfortunately due to the rules of the game we were unable to hold this fixture at home, which would have been fantastic for the club and town.
After a frantic search for an alternative venue in Wigan, we were forced to use the Leigh Sports Village. Due to the ridiculous costs involved, which we had cover and share the profit with the Centurians, we made a total of £63.
Though there have been discussions regarding securing solutions for Amateur Clubs who see themselves in similar situations in the future, there has been nothing put in writing.
Both the Management Committee and the Open Age Coaching Staff, therefore felt it was not in the players or clubs interest to enter the competition this year.
We instead have a number of home friendlies that will support revenue being brought into the club.
We wish all our fellow Amateur Clubs who are competing in the Challenge Cup the very best of luck.
I had just checked to see the full draw listing and noticed Pats weren't in there and was wondering why - tough decision on the committees part I think. £63 ....pffft," owd George" gets more than that in his collecting bucket at every home game

I don't know if it was discussed and wasn't an option but it seems odd that Wigan who have benefited from Pats players couldn't have done anything'"
It wasn't an option, the Orrell pitch was out of commission due to ongoing maintenance at the time I believe |

Don't get it do you, an amateur club drew a part time club at home and rented a ground from the council to stage it on, even a baker from Bent should understand that |

Still would seem rather petty that Leigh took their £63 from the gate receipts instead of letting the amateurs have it! I bet Beaumonts bar bill was more than that! |
