Easter Monday revival? : Sat Apr 02, 2011 12:07 am  

Saints fan here.

First of all,welcome back to Super League, Widnes. Much deserved.

With you back amongst the big boys i wonder what chance is of there of the Widnes/St Helens Easter Monday derby making a return? It's such a traditional Rugby League fixture.

Would you Widnes fans like to see it brought back?

For what it's worth i'd love to see this historic game back on our fixture list.

Warrington's Easter weekend used to be Widnes on Goof Friday then Wigan on the Monday. Cant remember the last time we played Wigan on Easter Monday so TBH I don't think the RFL give a c##p about "tradition". ................. It would be good though. Agree with ANO, derbies should be on holiday weekend, seems to be more of an excuse for the whole family to go down and watch it.
