Since a Blackpool fan got stabbed to death at a game a while back outside Bloomfield road. Every Blackpool fan i have come across has either swung a punch at me or told me they f""king hate Bolton



Looking at Blackpool message boards leading up to the game at the reebok stadium earlier in the season it was flooded with messages of how much everybody hates Bolton so its not worn off either.

Can't say Ive noticed any of that (more than the typical Wigan/Blackburn type games) on the forums, I'll take your word for it though, maybe Ive just managed to avoid those vibes!

the stabbing of a blackpool fc fan to death was august 1974 on the blackpool kop.

i was there stood on the kop that day as a bwfc fan with my cousin mate a blackpool fan. as a 16 year old at the time nobody under 21 was allowed to leave the ground until hour after the end of the game.

my cousin mate was 21 and confirm with the police i had stood with him all the time of the match so i could leave via the pitch and east terrace.

since then blackpool fans as far as i know dont like wanderers or their fans

"Basically, Paul, I'm a puff and don't like being tackled or making tackles.Union pays me -loads of money so I'll say anything you want. I mean, have you seen how much Paul Prescott bleeds every week? Fook that!"

Used it about two years ago. We moved into our new house and the bathroom tiles where not our taste. Not being high on the priority list we painted over the offending tiles. The ones that get hit by the shower water have started to flake/peel but the others are fine. It does a job but I would not want it as a permanent thing. It doesn't look like a paint job when finished, and is best applied using a sponge roller than a brush.

sltv crossing the divide on YouTube.
Ashton could do with listening to Lesley Vainakolo and Jason Robinson.

Great watch that.

Definitely a good watch.

Maybe a large increase in the salary cap isn't the answer to stop union defections because several clubs can't spend up to the limit now. However, why prevent players from having outside sponsorship deals? This would surely keep the players happy and not cost the club a penny!

By the way, when Sculthorpe was the "face" of Gillette did he get paid? I would hope so! Then it would have counted on Saints salary cap. How stupid/wrong is that?

Taken from Andy Wilson's Set-of-Six column in the Guardian:

What does Germaine Greer have in common with Ray French? They'd have made a great pair in the Celebrity Big Brother house, but alas the closest they are ever likely to come is as joint top of the bill for the Wigan and Leigh Literary Festival. Ms Greer, who comes from the wrong part of Australia to have grown up with league, made her appearance last week with a discussion about Anne Hathaway, Shakespeare's wife, and was relishing her first return to Wigan since she was surrounded by dogs as she distributed some T-shirts with Kenny Everett at some time in the late-1960s. (This is true, honest, I heard her interviewed last week on Radio Manchester.)
But it's not too late to see Mr French, who made occasional references to his own Shakespearean knowledge when he combined a weekend role as the BBC's voice of rugby league with his day job as an English teacher at Cowley High School in St Helens. He is on stage at Ashton Library on Wednesday night, as part of a heavyweight panel to discuss the literature of rugby league (In League with Literature), which also includes Professor Tony Collins and Dave Hadfield, the doyen of modern league journalists.

I bet he pursposefully came at last at "soggy biscuit" every time.

Just been reading this weeks Observer, check out the letter's page.

There is a guy who has written in stating that he could resolve the towns sporting woes (didn't realise we had any). He basically suggested that Wigan RL and latics should pool their playing squads and the teams managers can pick from the best.

He actually said "Could you imagine Hugo Rodallega running the length of the DW wearing Cherry & White to score against St Helens".

Then he said "....or Pat Richards marking Wayne Rooney at Old Trafford".











Rodallega would be thrown into Row Z and Richards would be made to look stupid in front of 78,000 both within the first few minutes of a match.

Then there's Salary Cap Issues / Import restrictions / astronomical difference in wages..etc.


The guy must be on drugs.
