I'm as reunited as I ever want to be mate! It's been a long time since I heard from you Graham. Your daughter must be in senior school by now? Where do the years go? Mine are both at L'pool Uni, the lad is doing his Phd, my daughter has just started her masters and we moved back to Liverpool just over two years ago.

Have a great time on Saturday and let's have that pot back in Lancashire (never mind Cheshire, the Tory gets!) where it belongs.

Good luck on Saturday Wire, a good few of us Leythers are going to the Final to cheer you on, if you see any of us come and say hello, have a good day we will.

The last time I saw Warrington play in a Final was in the double year of 1954. Attended the Challenge Cup replay win at Odsal after also being at Wembley. Went to all Wembley finals from 1950 until I left the Uk in 1966. Warrington won in the 1950 match too.

My favourite all time player is Brian Bevan who I first saw when Warrington hammered my team Hull FC. in the late 40's. That team also included Gerry Helme, Harry Bath and Roy Francis who shortly after went to Hull to become my favourite Hull FC player/coach.



Hope you triumph in a great game!

Good Luck for tomorrow, hoping for a repeat of the CC Final to shut up the arrogant Whino fans

Wilderspool has always been south of the Mersey, therefore Warrington RLFC has always been a Cheshire club based on the traditional Lancashire-Cheshire boundary...



However, it is true that traditionally most of the fans come from across the river to the North.



I'm Cheshire-born and bred and not ashamed to admit it... And I support a club originating in Cheshire since 1789-ish.

NOW THE WIRE
