The Virtual Terrace • Liverpool RLFC
Widnes has tried for years to tap into the Liverpool market, as has St. Helens. Your issue with a footballing city/town, when they’re not watching Liverpool/Everton/tranmere, football still takes up a massive proportion of their weekend lives. If they’re not playing amateur football themselves, they’ll be watching their kids or friends play in the Ken Dodd league on a Sunday afternoon.
Be interesting like I keep saying to see how it all pans out but it’s a non starter for me.
Have they really though? I’d be genuinely interested to know what both Widnes and Saints have done to try and tap into Liverpool. I’d say they’re on to a loser anyway. Most people from Liverpool aren’t going to automatically associate themselves with small towns on the outskirts of the area.
A team called and playing under a Liverpool badge is a different prospect.
