| the gantry type thing on the side of the railway bridge, which is now full of pipes, cables etc used to be a walkway. the stairs leading up to it are still there when you come off the bridge (going into widnes)

| Quote: Chris B "I remember a story of Vince Karalius having done it and on asking my wife's grandmother it transpired that it used to be a fairly common thing to do.. But I was never sure which bridge it was that they were talking about. Whether there was someway to climb on the transporter somewhere and whether there was a lower point?
Either way... it seemed like madness to me.'"
The Transporter went about 8 feet over the canal wall and the jumpers actually dropped off the transporter into the ship canal. They used to pay the penny to get on the transporter bridge and then climb over the side as it got near the wall and then drop in.
Daft, but they still did it!

I'm a bigger Wire fan than you'll ever be sunshine. I don't take any s**t off Wigan,Saints and Widnes fans. Unlike you who sucks up to them.

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
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.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]
[b:24qn1m99]Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY![/b:24qn1m99]:24307.jpg |

| Quote: GSF "It's a popular misconception that Alex Murphy threatened to jump off the bridge if Widnes won the cup at Wembley in 1975 against his Warrington team.He actually made the statement in 1976 prior to the final against Saints,which we lost.'"
That’s not my recollection of it, and I went to that Widnes v Wire final in 75. I can tell you now that he definitely said it prior to that game and not the Saints game. He may have said it again for the Saints game, but he did it first in 75. I remember all the banter going around at the time over Murphy’s boast, including before and after the match.

that may be so, but he definately IS a blert of premature sex wee, with all the intellectual capacity and maturity of a lobotomised 4 year old, stuck in some outdated infantile parochial mindset.
wirewonder your a relic mate, and i pity you.
i also find you small and unimpressive. much like your opinions and much as im sure most women find your penis.

| Up the Chemics
I imagine Headingley 07 seems a long time ago, doesn't it?
All the best and see you at Cas (unless we get the boot) next season.

Cheers mate. Aside from one or two cas fans I'd like to see react to a relegation you seem like a good lot and I look forward to visiting once again in 2011.

| More fans than any other club that may have been promoted to SL.
More fans than both the Welsh & Quinns have ever had in SL.
More away fans than both of the above, Wakey & Salfraud will ever take to a game.
Bigger gates at our derbies than any of the above etc etc.
Which when all said & done is what our sport needs, more people watching!
We will be no different on the field than the SL side that makes way for us for the first 2 years, nor would any other team, but maybe by the 3rd year we can be in the top 8.
It is time someone else got a chance, what is there to lose?
Made up it is my club but the RFL chose us because we can we can make the biggest impact at present.
I also feel very sorry for the club that makes way for us, we have been in the wilderness for to long & they are gonna be there also.
