| A fan in Toulouse has tweeted it after speaking to Dennis Betts. Not who I'd have signed personally.

| Black's just about done. He is a shadow of his former self. Widnes eh? Yep - that sounds about right
If true though - thanks Ben. A great stint for us with some great match-winners.

| Just spoken to Ben at home and its total crap. He has every intention of working for a contract at Fax for next season.

He's our best player. Must have another three years left in him. Great news.

| Interesting the anti-tampering deadline for SL and the Championships is September 1st. Therefore any news about who is signing for next year would mean that a club has broken the Operational Rules regarding making illegal approaches to players under contract.
After the 1st, you can approach any player whose contract expires on 30th November of this year. Otherwise the anti-tampering rule remains in place for contracts with years remaining on it.
So either this is just a big pile of poo or Widnes are in a lot of trouble!

Needs to buck his ideas up then. What has happened to one of my favourite players this season? One of the best at taking on the line and pushing players off with the best handoff in the league. We have hardly seen it this season for one reason or another. Lets see a strong finish to the season eh Blacky.

Widnes are not in trouble and this rumour is a load of e.I would not want Black anyway. ![CRAZY d040.gif](images/smilies//d040.gif)

There are ways around it, hence why Chris Hill and Jamie Ellis were allowed to sign agreements with Warrington and Hull, not to mention the signings Widnes have already been making for next season (Cross, Briscoe etc).

I'm not sure if it's a loss of form or if he's carrying an injury. Watch him when he's not involved in the play - he always limps!
