An interesting take on Widnes's performance and their overall position from a batley fan after yesterdays match

Quote: " Jim Bergerac ,A number of the Widnes players will certainly be on big money. Former SL regulars like Gardner and Heckenberg will not come cheap, and guys like Thackeray and Ropati (who, incidentally, is robbing a living on the basis of his family name) will also command big wage packets.
To be quite honest though, I'm seriously concerned about their prospects for the rest of this season, as the side we faced today looked seriously dispirited and demoralised, and showed no character whatsoever. I'd say that around 90% of the side that took the field at our place today have already been given the nod that they won't be given contracts for next season, and subsequently they'll be mentally going through the motions and picking up guaranteed money for the rest of 2011.
We actually had the weakest team that I've seen us field in several seasons today (thanks to injuries), and we still wiped the floor with an experienced Widnes side. That in itself should say something about the spirit in the Widnes ranks at the moment.'"

I'm just glad I took Batley +6 on the coupon. Widnes are worth opposing most weeks at the moment. You'd think players going out of contract would want to make themselves look good in the shop window?

Batley won our cup last season... How did you get on against Wire?

A totally weird situation though , normally only clubs going down have players in this situation , this is the first time its happened the other way , they seem to start ok , but as soon as pressure is applied they seem to crumble , be interesting to see how they cope with Fax on thursday ? , as from yesterdays performance , they are close to getting things back on track

I'll be taking Fax to win a close game

wakeytom.

Chill, Widnes IMO deservedly got a place in SL next season. If its at the expense of us its hardly thier fault is it.

Its either the RFL's or our own (depending on your viewpoint)

We have still won more than we have lost, in the league we are in, have you?


I'm sorry, but you really do not have any sort of point at all. You just sound a little pathetic and desperate. Your clubs’ future was ruined by it's previous board, in exactly the same way as ours was last time.

If you want to point the finger of blame there are other, more worthy, areas to point at than Widnes.

Dosn't this kind of thing show up the whole "franchising" thing in all it's glory.

Will the Widnes "faithfull" still watch a "poor" team lose this season?

Will they achieve the 7000 membership they are looking for based on not knowing who will be playing next season?

We still have 2 months to find out if any team is being removed from SL and in that 2 months Wakey or whoever could go on and not lose a game.

And a team who cannot get a win at all costs in the championship and perilously near the bottom could be "relegated" into SL because they qualify d040.gif d040.gif d040.gif

But is really is a sad state of affairs when the actual game itself is, at best, 2nd billing to all the BS about franchising being the way forward.

and if any wakefield fan wants to blame the RFL then they deserve the club they've got....the RFL where kind enough to give you 3 years and nearly £4million to make a go of it and the people that ran the club blew it ...

So the 'Vikings' took yet another hiding at the weekend against the might of Batley. The latest in a long line of embarassing defeats.

If this crowd can get hammered by those sorts of teams,imagine what big clubs like Wire will do to them next season? They will be an embarassment to our sport.

Cheshire's other club are already booked in for the wooden spoon for all of their 3 year stay.

Widnes only got a SL licence this time around because of the amount of whinging and bleating they've done in the last 3 years since they were last refused and got the sympathy vote this time off the RFL.

No doubt their fans will be saying their side will look different next season,but what big name players will want to go there?

Top players are attracted to top clubs who win big trophies so that rules Widnes out. Big names come to the Warringtons of this world.

It will make our game a farce with what we're going to see at the Stobart next season.

They should have their Super League licence revoked. Immediately.
