| I've been impressed with o'connor.... He speaks well and he seems to have the club at heart.
Widnes would appear to be lucky to have him, as we are with moran.

although, note, AT LEAST one championship side will be awarded a licence.
(then again we are talking about the RFL!)

| Waste of time.
Should have been 'Fax. When there's a tiny crowd at the Halton stadium to watch the likes of Catalans and Harlequins you'll wonder what all the hype was over Widnes being re-admitted.

And you think Fax will get more? What do you base that on?

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]

To be precise, it was actually a turnover of £2.5Million

Profit and turnover are two different things. And making a £1Million profit in this league is nothing to s at.

Any business that can return a 40% profit should be lauded. It is even more impressive that Widnes' operating costs are £1.5 million.
PS
Any chance Widnes to get their Chief Exec to have a one-to-one with Vince Cable?

Is this the same Halifax that are currently BOTTOM of the championship?

I'm aware that profit and turnover are different things. I didn't mention turnover.
I'll cut to the chase - I don't believe that widnes made a profit of £1million, not in any sense that actually matters. That's what I was laughing at.

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."

| Just looking at our run in the Championship since 2005, we've done just aswell as Halifax. And the only time someone has had a higher average attendance than us is Castleford.
