I know you have Wigan and we have Widnes, but, there's a real electrifying atmosphere when we play each other. And apart from being just down the road, we have a few scores to settle:
No.1- that ridiculous run of wins you had against us in SL
No2- hoping to end those wins, bloody Shaun Long with his drop goals
No 3-you guys have to get us back for some of the GF semi finals
No 4- and the worst, which we'll never be able to get back-that 80-0 scoreline under Brian Johnson. I was there at Knowsley road and it was bloody
Aweful.
No 5- we have to remove that enjoying face of LMS (Micheal Mcintyres).
No 6- try and avoid another year of oh wankey wankey!
All that said, I'm really looking forward to it. It'll be a proper game with a proper atmosphere. I think you'll do it. It pains me to say, but I
think you'll do the treble, no doubt. I've not seen an SL side so far ahead of the others in many a year.and credit where credit's due. And big credit
to your club as a breeding ground of top players. If sides, including the NRL we're to compete with only home grown players, it's a two horse race between you and Wigan.
Anyhow, looking forward to the big game. (Apparently there's a hurricane and torrential rain predicted for the final weekend, so we have a chance!- I wish!)
