What has happen?
Escaping by the skin of our teeth last year only to resign the players and didn’t budget a drop in numbers so can’t spend anymore money.
The same boring structured rugby 5 drives and a kick, go off plan and you don’t play again like D Walker.
Not dropping players out of form because there a BIG name.
It’s toxic at Widnes at the moment, I’ve been going 30 odd years just to get a buzz on match day meeting mates for a pint, now can’t be bothered going even though I’ve got a season pass. A lot of people feel the same, miserable faces in the boozer and walking down the ground knowing 80 minutes of boring rugby and probably a loss.
I don’t know who or what the problem is, Rule or Betts but the way it’s going unless they know the league structure next year we are painfully crawling into the championship.

I didn't go one but one of your lot put on some forum we brought about a thousand, said on radio Leeds we took a good following and the clubs twitter feed said we sold all our allocation.

| Do you mean you can get into a Bundesliga game. I believe that NRL games are cheaper to go and watch than Super League too.

More Trinity fans at Huddersfield than there were, Leeds fans at Widnes and we're just a small club, with little to shout about.
The Leeds fans will all be there in their brand new shirts and salves though, when the big games come around but, cant be d in the early rounds.
Some may call them glory hunters

Little to shout about? Who was the ref? I bet he copped a fair bit as usual

NOBODY can be proud of a 2000 attendance for any game between 2 SL sides, it's pitiful.
Perhaps the answer is another "magic" style weekend for this particular round of fixtures.
Play all the games over a 2 day weekend at one or two venues and split the receipts (somehow).
It's no wonder that the wider public aren't interested, when even the regular "fans" cant make it from the comfort of their living room / local boozer.

Wondered why he’d not played for a while. Can we have him at Warrington then?

Going to finals every year gets expensive, have to save a few quid every now and again for the big games, something you don't know and never will know about.
So you took 1000 to Huddersfield like I say 10 miles away, Leeds would have taken 2-3k even for a early round of challenge cup. Still managed 1000 for a Friday night game 70 odd miles down m62 carpark, you would have taken about 200-300 most.

| Scheduling this round of the cup the week before Magic weekend isn't exactly the best move with people saving themselves and their money for Newcastle.

| There looks to be more Toronto away fans today than any other game this round.

| There were nowhere near 1,000 Leeds fans there on Friday. Our away following at Lancashire games is often poor but plumbed new depths for this one.

| Quote: TheUnassumingBadger "I imagine Widnes will be another championship semi pro club with a rich history before too long.
They are currently owned by a group of investors petrified by risk, I read an interview with James Rule in which he was basically saying they can't sign better players unless they sell lots more season tickets. Meaning 'we only want to spend your money, not our own' or 'if you buy this inferior product we will have the money to improve it'.
Good riddance come the qualifiers.'"
Putting out ‘guilt trip’ statements claiming the fans needs to back the club or else arent new for James Rule, we had years of that game at Hull...then they’d go sign some old hasbeen to shift some season tickets, hype us all up and then a bang average season and the cycle repeats
