You'd rather go away games at Featherstone than Toulouse? Goodness, let's throw Catalans out and reform Runcorn. Who needs a glass of red beneath azure blue skies when you can have a warm pint of hydes anvil atop windmill hill.
The beer was quite palatable, when I called in for an after match pint at the Linnets Social. I never imbibed any of the vin rouge, so could not comment on that front.
Chris Amoo of the Real Thing used to watch Runcorn, as he was a big RL fan. Word was that he was fed up being mythered by the locals at Knowsley Road, and started watching Runcorn. Blocker Roach played for the Wire in a cup tie at canal street, during his time with us.
Not saying there's anything wrong with a jaunt across the channel, mind, but I've got some good memories of Runcorn.
