On thread drift:

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”

There were rumours, about six months ago, that the club wanted to turn it into a training facility. This would be a great move, if it comes off. It would make the club even more professional.

Great news, 2 pitches to be used by the 18's and reserves an 1st team and an all weather to boot complete with a pimped club house.

So that's about 5,000 daisy chains linked together by the kid Dalton. Did you inform the cool kids on Why Don't You?  |

That's a damned lie. I stopped doing daisy chains after the nasty near miss bee sting incident. My "Why Don't You?" letter was for my extensive and interesting collection of photographs of old tumble dryers circa 1950-1951. They said it was literally too interesting to put onto television, which I wholeheartedly agree with.

| "Whyyyyyyyy don't you just switch off your television set and go do something else less boring instead . . . ."
Most people did when that program came on. Except me and Dalton it would seem
So, this 'ere training ground malarky. Do you think they'd let Fax borrow it instead of having to run up t'ills in Oldham? |

Late seventies I was at Leigh Colts before going to the Miners. But yes Widnes Tigers. Not sure if we played Widnes colts on there. I think both Hulme brothers played for them that day.

Played for Widnes colts late 70s, the main pitch they used then were the playing fields opposite the Four Topped Oak pub, got the odd game at the stadium if it was free and the odd curtainraiser.

I was one of the youngsters in the squad in the late 70s but we had a great loose forward in the team called Tony Kinsey, he left Widnes to join Reg Bowden when he started the Fulham club. A great ball handler and great kicking game. Anyone know what happened to him? His dad took us for training sessions a few times as I remember.
