At what point did they come all the way down to the in goal area?
I left after Pete had spoken with Rob etc and it looked like the Widnes players were heading into the dressing rooms??

| Quote: Standidge "Nice touch from the Fax lads to run to South Stand at the end, as always lead by Miles and Rob. Interesting that Frank, Rob and Whitey were interviewed by Pete Emmett on the field too.
Strange that the Widnes players didn't come over to acknowledge their fans. The fans which had travelled over, on a thursday night, in appalling weather, when they could have stayed home and watched on SKY TV. The Widnes fans were in very good voice all evening so why not make the effort to actually come over to thank them??
Maybe due to a large number of their players knowing they won't be playing for them next season? Maybe not.
Either way, to just briefly applaud the fans from halfway line is not right.'"
Not sure which game you were at... the Widnes players made their way over to the fans as they always do.
Never known them to not to that to be honest.
It's always pleasing to get a win but I was quite amused at the reaction of the Fax players and fans to be honest. I was half expecting a trophy to be presented and a lap of honour.
Still nice to see that the RFL managed to pacify your masses with a referee gained victory.

You just gotta love it......
I know we all watch with our own team coloured glasses on, but come on Widnes first try was a clear forward pass and their third had 2 forward passes in the play........
Sheer grit and determination won that game..

Didn't come right down but came most of the way, no issues at all they were all gutted too. Also lads without contracts ATM Tyrer, Varks, Hulme prob our best players!
Gutted after yesterday we seem to struggle with pens second half and don't think it's fitness either. Look like we had but didn't kill game off again unfortunately. Lot of credit to Fax for coming back though!

| The Widnes players all came over to applaud us at the end and if you think otherwise you were clearly watching a different game. They don't have to come past the ingoal area to acknowledge us, iirc Paddy Flynn was the last to applaud us and he was stood between the try line and 10 metre line

| Quote: Tony Fax "Not at all, the game was "not" meaningless as we still had league positions to play for and there's still the "momentum factor" regarding the end of season run in for the GF, regardless of the SL franchice bow locks which may have preceeded. That was a very poor effort by the scouse fans tonight, the worst turn out I can remember. And I've always been suspicious of their "3,300 attendence claims" when I've seen them on the box. Hmmmm .....'"
Really?

I wasn't watching a different game, I was merely saying what I saw after the match. It was commented on by a few people near me also. They didn't sm to come over to the fans, they never made it into the 20m area. If I'm wrong then fine, just having a discussion, not starting an argument.
Yes your players were gutted, and understandably, your fans must have been gutted too.
Personally I think the Widnes fans were a credit to their club last night, some good banter. Especially liked the "forward" shouts in first half. Very amusing. Think you might get to do that again at Leeds next year, their South Stand is worse than ours at calling "forward" for every pass.

True i do remember the majority coming over but a few may have not so i guess it comes down to what individual people saw. To say we played badly i think a few people, Widnes fans included are taking it a bit far. We were in the game all the way until the end. For 60% we were probably ahead. We played some very good attacking rugby last night but fair do's to Fax they came back at us strong and i couldn't sit here and say they didn't deserve the win.
We were 12 points ahead and we threw the game away with penalty after penalty. We can't afford to do that against any team in this division.
Best of luck for the future, great atmosphere last night behind the sticks.

Hardware/PDT_41.gif "I'd hate to be a Widnes fan. Our way of thinking is 'were going to the grand final and were gonna win it'. You lot couldn't care less and you haven't for the past 3 years. What a boring time you lot must have supporting your average rugby club. Still you must be exited becoming the super league whipping boys for the next few years? I hope O'Connor goes bankcrupt and you lot and the RFL are made to look daft. Oh and as for getting past Batley, we'd have hammerd them last week if it hadn't been for the wanky ref. We can and will beat Batley, Sheffield and your shower in a high pressure game, you'll see. Fax vs Leigh final, Fax to win on golden point! Watch this space."

We had half a team missing and still won, i feel sorry for Widnes fans as in the last 3 years of the Championship they havnt really achieved anything.'"
So you think were the worst team even though we are 3rd in the table

| The reason we lost the game was because of our bad discipline, the ref wasn't bad! If you noticed most of our tries were actually quite good, whereas your were just close to the line, same old tries.

| "Same old tries".
Same old loss for Widnes. Do Leigh also win by running in "same old tries"?

Doesn't matter who you play, it's hard to stop a team when they have repeat sets on your line.
So do you think that Halifax played attractive rugby? At times they looked clueless!
