It was on Granada that. Steve McCurries debut? or am I thinking of another game. |

It's not closer. It's easier to get to. Apart from that, Steve O'Connor tols me and my lad to **** off at the Halifax play-off game in 2008 when we asked him why he was changing the match days from Sunday to Friday, so we ****** off. By the way, your Chairman had no interest in his home town rugby teal for 42 years so when it comes to glory hunting, we're not in the same league as him. Enjoy next Saturday. I'm sure I will!

Cheers mate! I watched them for 32 years so I hope they do well. Met a lot of nice people in Widnes down the years. |

That's a fact. But I suppose all those years spent in the shadow of a town one third the size might have that effect. That and never, ever being World Club Champions after all this time! |

He does seem like a decent guy but I wouldn't want him in the trenches with me,the amount of towels he throws in would mount to a pyramid. |

But just think! I've seen Widnes more times than most Widnesians. That makes me more loyal to Widnes RLFC than most of you wannabe LFC/MUFC fakes!
That includes your Chairman by the way!

He happens to be part of the problem. A Widnes lad who preferred the nearest big football team rather than turn up when his home town team were struggling in the NFP. A bit like the majority of Widnes lads in fact except they'll only go as far as the nearest pub with a big screen to 'support' their team. Anyway, see you next week. By the way, has Widnes got a real ale pub yet apart from the Four Topped Oak? Or is a bottle of WKD the height of your nightlife? |

Stupid old fart!
If a real ale pub is your idea of the "night life" then your not exactly at cutting edge of culture yourself.
Maybe you got told to off cos you were in danger of boring the man to death.

Not that you'd know about night life! As for boring O'Connor, it's possible because I was talking about rugby league at the time and that's not a game he seems to know too much about. Obviously! |

Not sure what Widnes nightlife has got to do with a debate about yellow bellied 'fans' unfurling the white flag but you do seem to have a grudge against Steve O'Connor.What will you do when the Saints Chairman tells you to fook off?Hot foot it down the road to Wiggin? |

I can't see that happening. McManus seems to be a rugby league man. As for nightlife, I'm just interested in having a decent pint before the game next week. Obviously, that can't be done because there's no decent pubs in Widnes. Anyway, you just concern yourself with getting Widnes people watching their home town rugby league team at the stadium rather than them pretending to be Mancs or Scousers. That way, you just might average 6,000 a game and who knows, when McManus gets a 12 team Super League, Widnes might be in it. After all, my council tax funded your stadium when I was living in Runcorn.
