J Phil Loxton Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) I'm a Fev fan and we all know whoever came up against Leigh in the final would be massive underdogs (no pun intended) but I hope you go there with the same intensity has you did at Post Office Road and make for a good final. After last Sunday you thoroughly deserve your day out and I wish you the very best of luck. Edited September 28, 2022 by J Phil Loxton 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravensport have released what it describes as a Leisure Shirt for the final. Phildog is asking if the team will be wearing a one off Match shirt for the final.

phildog Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Widnes has always had more money so why would Tom figure that buying for buying's sake will guarantee that Widnes might replace Batley in next season's play-off? I think we're resigned to losing him sadly unless he has a Road To Damascus revelation on Sunday which, as his sponsor, I can only pray for. One thing I do know is that he won't be leaving gladly and it'll be a long time before we get another like him. I hope a SL club decides to give him another go if he does go, that way he mightn't miss too much family life as he'll be 'at work' whilst the kids are at school.

Whatever his reasons, his commitment to Batley over the last couple of years has been immense. All the very best wishes for your future. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
