Apparently Pete has left the club. Would imagine this is a knock-on from reports that Holland has come in permanently.

I would like to wish Pete all the best in his career and hope he gets a club soon. Thought he always did a good job for panthers, especially the middle of last season when we were really light of props.

Kev Banham will be doing a collection for Pete to provide a memento of his time at the club at the Worky game.

Yes i am doing a collection for the blackpool panthers pete fairhurst who has just been released by the club. He has been a brilliant servant to the club over the years and i am asking all panthers fans to dig deep at the next home game v Workington in order for us to purchase he a momemto of his time at the club. Many thanks guys n gals

And i'm sure he won't be the last to leave after reading the papers today.......

what paper say?

Go buy league express and you'll see

Can't get it around here, stop teasing



You can't get it online for at least another day either, would be interested to see what's been said...

Well that's weird because I get it in lytham, where I can also get league weekly if I walked to a further shop, yet apparently no one cares about it in lytham so you'd think thete would be no market for them.

I'n North end of St Annes mate, no one appears to stock it up here.

you can get it at the shops in ansdell, but I subscribe to it and get it delivered, much easier to do it that way, there should be mething online on their website to subscribe, its cheaper this way plus you get the monthly mag rlworld too which has some interesting stuff inside, even held a 2 page special on panthers a few months back

I live in wesham and Rugby league express is a bit hit n miss too. Sometimes have it in and sometimes dont but think they only get a copy or 2. Think will go on and subscribe - thanks for the heads up

at this rate we'll be after getting pete back in - i'm sure he offers better value for money than some of Mr Hope's indulgences

I was thinking similar thoughts myself - hold off on the Fairhurst trophy

I heard he had got fixed up with another club. Will contact him before engraving trophy - lol

Shame if that's the case, as I suspect there may well be one or two holes in the pack that will need filling now...we'll see though, a few players may just surprise us and stick around, let's hope so.

Heres hoping but hemingway will be gone, on big money and know that for a fact.

Probably best there's no further speculation about who stays and goes though until announcements are made, don't want to rock the boat any further.

Thats all us fans hear, rumours and hearsay but agree with what you say. Lets hope the club let us know whats going on and soon. Boats not rocked, its like the titanic but we need to get it back up afloat and by sunday !!!

Without Andy Hobson as he has been banned for 5 matches per the RFL website.

He's not going anywhere for the time being then

If MC goes , Hobson as Player coach seen as 5 game ban - lol

Aaaarghh, nooooooooo!!



MC's going nowhere, now the root of the problem is away, we may just have a chance to rebuild. Hopefully.

Heard MC was full time now so cant see us been able to afford top keep him

Considering our current situation,yesterdays poor crowd and crap weather, i managed to collect a total of £20 yesterday for the pete fairhurst collection. Many thanks all that contributed and i am going to purchase a rugby trophy for all pete`s efforts over the years. Good luck at rochdale mate !!!

Is that all!! That means if you gave £1 you gave 5% of the total collection.
