Widnes Game : Tue Feb 23, 2010 9:22 am  

It's the start of the leauge on Sunday. And we start with a trip to Widnes.
So go along and cheer the lads. I'm sure the the team will give 200%.
I will be going to Elland Road to watch Leeds play Storm in the World Challange. Had my ticket over a month.
When was the last time Cougars beat Widnes at Widnes? I'm sure it was when Phil Larder was in charge.
Could be wrong.
And how about travel to away games? Rachel, how about you getting a bus up for away games?

I can remember the first game against them in the Superleague era; we played at their old ground, big crowd, lots of cougar fans, thrilling game that ended a draw.

My abiding memory was of a youngish woman spitting feathers and claiming we were cheats, the officials were cheats, the RFL were cheats and every one had it in for them. She was either foaming at the mouth or had just brushed her teeth and forgotten to gargle

buses set up by the club is a good idea. the more people that can go away the better our season could be. not saying we'd win our away games but sure it'd make the lads feel better. not everyone can afford to go to away games but im sure some ppl could get to the odd one or two over a season.

Laughton is the ref for this Sunday.

Re: Widnes Game : Tue Feb 23, 2010 3:10 pm  

Am I wrong but is Laughton not from Widnes?

Re: Widnes Game : Tue Feb 23, 2010 3:15 pm  

It makes no difference if he is from Widnes.
Refs are allowed to ref there own town teams.

Re: Widnes Game : Tue Feb 23, 2010 3:16 pm  

The question posed was not whether he is alowed to referee just is he from there.
