First of what a great turnout from us, i recon we had just over a 1,000 there today and the team responded well with a professional display. Toa suffered what looked like a bad knee injury but Varks was a more than able replacement. Took bloody ages to get in from parking up but they're good people in Keighley and i had an enjoyable day.

Roll on Blackpool.

I was worried we would slip up last night, I really had that feeling that this wasn't going to go our way. I think another day out in Blackpool is just what we need to lift spirits at the club. Here's hoping we can go on and win it!

Roll on fev first and if you don't mind will you bring the over a 1,000 with you please

Congratulations by the way

Bloody Blackpool. What's it like? I want a final in Blackpool!!!!

It's not fair

3rd time for us, tbh it's a great day out and it's great to see all the black and white on the front walking up and down. Plenty of watering holes about and that party atmosphere.

You cant beat it!

Hmmm.

It better be our turn next year!!!

Enjoy your day Widnes fans.

Your lot never seem to take it seriously! it's been a magic event for us.

You know how Blackpool is a crap hole with some rides and boozers and bad food and arcades and a terrible beach?

It's like that but with a rugby game at some point and thousands of viking hordes every where you go. We've got our own changing rooms now we're there that often.

Come and join us at the match mate?You be welcome in the banter.

To be honest this year is meaningless, we have already ticked the box and to win it again doesnt count for anything.
Having said that really enjoyed the atmosphere today, shame about Toa's injury, I dont think we will beat Batley without him.

How about, winning a trophy? Showing our younger fans some success? Having a good day out?

My heart wouldn't be in it without Fax. It does sound like a bloody great day out. I love Blackpool. I love it's charm, its chavness and it's tackyness. Add to that - a bit of Rugby League as Chris D says and you've got a dream day out. I will be writing a strongly worded letter to my club in February 2011.

Hey you can win the nines mate.

Just spoke to his sister-in-law and that's Toa finished. Gutted for the lad.

Bad news that, he was due to retire at the end of the year anyway but thats gutting for him, the Keighley pitch was rock hard today. Im surprised more players didnt get injured.

Absolute dump , you'd have to pay me to go

Yet if Leigh got there you would go, got the nines coming up so we might see Bugman there.

Let me see , Blackpool or Sharm el shiek





I'll stick with Egypt , I have never seen us win the NRC as it tends to coincide with my hols , just as it does this time

As for Blackpool , I detest the place with a vengance , I worked there for a couple of years , it really is a dump

That's a real shame. Damn.

Starbug in the Winter Gardens:

How dare you,Blackpool hasa great Beaches,just been awarded the best,imtempted to attend myself,still upset,at the mighty Leythers,non appearence.

At least you get the Grand Final unlike us.

The best where? In Blackpool?

And a few in America now.....












Apologies... bad taste I accept but the fact that BP has now become BRITISH Petroleum again and the cover up that the rig was set up and operated by American companies has wrankled me.
