Lancashire Rivals
 
Hi fellas,

I've been asked to help out with a new website called LancashireRivals which is a forum dedicated to banter between Wigan, Bolton, Blackburn, Burnley, Blackpool, Preston, Morecambe & Accrington fans.

The site is literally a couple of days old so we are looking to encourage new members to join. We are also of course looking for a variety of admin and moderators from all clubs.

If the editor of this site wants their own link on our website just let me know.

Hope this message is ok, any questions just ask. Cheers.

wigan 20 miles from m/c approx,bolton 17 miles approx,rochdale 14 miles.bury 12 miles.How could anyone some years ago annexe these cities to make them greater manchester,i'm South African and even a numbnuts like me knows they will always be lancashire to the people from these cities.I have a mate who goes balistic when someone says they are from manchester and when asked where they were born say Wigan or Bolton,rochdale,bury etc.He's from ancoats and a true manc who supports man city,sad i know but the saying is that a true mancunian is a city fan.How would we in accy and burnley feel if we were classed as greater Blackburn,perish the thought lol.

As a after thought i asked Grimps where wigan was,he consulted his sat nav and set off and duely ended up in salford.The moral of this story is that you should never trust Grimps to get you to a match on time.lo

Being that I live in the afore mentioned Wigan, I take great delight in telling them that they are Mancs or worse still closet scousers (they hate that even more). But when all is said and done, there are 6 Lancashire league teams - Blackburn, Burnley, Preston, Blackpool, Morecambe and the best of all Accrington Stanley. Nuff said

:hehetable :tongueout

It will NEVER happen - Accrington will take in the Rossendale valley and possibly the Ribble Valley, Burnley will take in Pendle and Nelson/Colne and all points east

:alright:

I think that you will find there are 15 Lancashire clubs in the League/Premiership:

Bury/Rochdale/Oldham/Wigan/Burnley/Blackburn/t'Stanley/Morecambe/Blackpool/t'North End/Man Utd/Liverpool/Everton/Man City/Bolton

I hope i'm wrong and have missed some out. No other county has as many. No other county has as many in the Premiership. Lancashire Leads.
