This again?

Where... where on earth do you think Widnes is?

Halifax were chanting 'we hate scousers' or something like that all night. I'm not a scouser. I'm from Cheshire. None of the Widnes fans I know are Scousers?

You might want to educate your younger fans as they were singing "Lancashire is wonderful" last night

More likely older fans! Or younger fans aware of our Lancashire past.

We've never been part of Liverpool and hopefully never will be.

Ask a proper scouser whether people from Widnes are scousers and they'll laugh in your face.

BTW I will be at KR tonight hoping to see a quality game with defences on top and low scores.

Each to their own. To me, that sounds like sitting through a bad episode of Sunday Morning Worship, while eating 3 big bowls of All Bran without sugar. Some people like an expansive game, some like to watch robots - it doesn't mean to say either are wrong and i have been guilty of that in this post and some others. That's the beauty of the game - there's something different for everyone to enjoy.

I thought Ben Black was superb last night, first I've seen of him properly. Cracking player.

Doesn't really help when people with Liverpool/Everton shirts on were standing with the Widnes fans. Plus you have "Liverpool 08" around the stadium and previously on your shirts.

Who said anything about tonight not being expansive? You can thhrow the ball around and still have low scores you know. Thats where the good defences come in.

Yep - i guess. Agreed. Just watched this match again with your words ringing in my ears - perhaps i was a little bist hasty in condemning you

Still - i do think the standards will improve down here "under the stairs".

Don't think they did!

Poor game I think. If this is the best that the Championship has to offer then the whole league is in trouble this season. Widnes look awful with ball in hand and the fact that Fax seem to have all the possession mixed with some grabby Widnes defence means that they have the lead in a somewhat boring game... the Murray tennis is more exiting at the mo

Shame no one agrees with you including the commentators, compared to some of the super duper leage matches thus far this was by far the most entertaining! and you a mod..... nuf said
