I remember the headless chicken try. I think you're being a but unfair to Jones as I genuinely believe he was being chased by a wasp. I can see no other reason for him running about wildly with his hands waving all over the place with absolutely no regard to what was happening around him on the rugby pitch.

I can't remeber if i posted it on here or not but when I was talking to a mate about the squad this year he were saying we've made some good signings and he were sayings its gonna be another good season. While i agreed we had made some good signings there not really replacements for the players that have left.

They were on opposite wings all the game until Haley went off. The left wing defended by the No.28 who ever he was left PW no chance at all to defend his line, as there was always an overlap as soon as the No 28 stood and watched . 6 or 7 tries in two games down the same wing ( could be more?)tells me something,does'nt it you?

I reiterate good-fair players DO NOT become bad ones overnight.

Now you know how we have felt at Widnes in the last few years.

we are looking good for promotion in july on our current form. o'connor must of give us some tips and matt has his tatics spot on

1 Leigh 7 6 1 0 248 144 20
2 Featherstone 7 5 1 1 258 132 17
3 Batley 8 5 0 3 198 166 16
4 Sheffield 6 5 0 1 183 120 15
5 Widnes 8 4 0 4 243 210 13
6 Barrow 7 3 0 4 205 193 12
7 Hunslet 7 3 1 3 152 164 11
8 York 7 2 1 4 124 260 8
9 Dewsbury 7 2 0 5 139 196 7
10 Halifax 7 1 0 6 193 245 6
11 Toulouse 7 1 0 6 94 207 4

Were in the top 10 yayyyyy

and we've conceded less than Leigh have scored, I'd say theres plenty to be positive about.
1 Were not bottom
2 We dont have the worst defence in the league
3 The side immediately above us are poor

I'm not at all concerned about the fact the only side below us are French and have already beaten us, and will be spared execution

Got to be in mate.Hey i know it is hurtful, but look on the brightside maybe Superleague.

To be honest i think the cap is too low in the Championship as helps teams with low crowds.

Anyone who thought we had turned the corner after last week is seriously deluded. Today was a poor performance against a lacklustre Barrow team.

Lets go through the team:-

Greenwood - I thought he had his best game since his return from injury.
White - Looked lively and got through a lot of work.
Haley - Usually steady but all the tries while he was on the pitch came down his side. We must be short if he keeps his place for next week.
Nash - Steady but missed a few tackles.
Worrincy - Got through a load of work again.
Hollroyd - I was embarrased when he pulled out of that 50/50 ball in the second half and a very average game overall.
Jones - Honestly whos idea was it for us to sign him? Passing is average at best and his discipline terrible.
Gannon -See above.
Penky - Good coach? Ah Penky you had your best game in weeks for us when you played 80 minutes, i know i will just give you 40 minutes this week. See the momentum go out of the team when he goes off. Feel sorry for him that the players around him arnt performing with the amount of effort and desire he puts in.
Cherryholme - Only real go forward forward today.
Clayton - Steady at best.
Smith - Why?
Barlow - One of his better games this season.
Chandler - Looks to be getting better.
Fairbank - Didnt notice him.
Beswick - Not sure where he fits in to the team.
Watene- 10 minutes before half time and 7 minutes after half time, no team can afford to carry passengers but for some reason MC thinks we can carry about 5.

We are paying the price of Matt Callands poor recruitment in the summer. We are not in a false position, we are exactly where we deserve to be. We have more coaches than players and im not sure what purpose they all serve. We wont see any improvement in the short term and watching Bradford put 80 on us in front of National television is going to be painful to watch. The crowds will keep dwindling but the board cannot act until they know what is happening with the SL application. By then we will be well and truly in a relegation dog fight.

I can't disagree with ANY of those player assessments.

That's pretty much it.

I may be a knob sometimes and people will disagree with a lot that i say but i always try to be honest in my assesment.
