We're the sacrificial lambs - for that reason alone, we need to go over there in numbers and very publicly spoil the party; the pre-match talk should be like a scene from 300!'"
Inspirational speech from agar? Have you ever heard him speak?

Yes, we were stood on the terrace at Batley last week, he was saying what a tool you were actually!

If thats being serious? Well you all in Wakefield must not be as smart as you make out.
We got into Super League because we did what we had to on the field straight away and then concentrated on building one of the best infrastructures in rugby league. We accomplished that and got promoted by doing exactly what the system wanted. Steve O'Connor then got Stobart involved to revitalise Super League. Even today there is a convoy going from Widnes all the way to the trafford centre to promote Rugby League itself.
If what your saying is true then rugby league is bent and thats what they're going to promote on Friday in front of Sky TV cameras.
Turn it in.

While I don't agree with all of Brens sentiments, where did he say Widnes don't deserve thier place in Super League?

| Oh he didn't, the amount of implications was amazing though. The ultimate one being we got our places in Super League unethically. I beg to differ.
4 years ago we got relegated to the shock of not only Widnes fans but the majority of rugby league. Now we're back and its Wakefields turn to think the rugby league world is against them.
Lets just get on with the sport eh!

Yep, comes across quite well considering how long he spent with you Humberside hillbillies - I'm surprised he doesn't just grunt like the rest of you.

Chip on shoulder or what.
Also who says you have one of the best infrastructures in RL? You I suspect. Or is just about how many toilets you have or is it about time in the top flight - the latter is the one that counts for me.

I didnt think so.
You are accusing all Wakefield supporters of thinking the RFL is against them when the majority of
Wakefield supporters don't even post on this site.
Sorry, but you are coming across a tad hypocritcal not to mention sensetive!

| The infrastructure is mainly the reason we got promoted, 2million turnover last year says it all.
Quite a few have agreed with 'Bren2k' up to now and yeh it does annoy me.
I want to see Rugby League progress to much more than it is but with people constantly knocking our governing body and...well basically we need to just get on with it, get behind our team no matter what and one day rugby league may be as popular as that other sport, foosball.
Dont get me wrong Im not crying whilst writing this or anything; its just that too many rugby league fans think the world is against the club but I suppose thats easy for me to say with Widnes just being promoted.
Anyway Friday is bound to be a great night, 2 new teams with something to prove, in front of the sky cameras, see you there!

Fair enough. FWIW I'm glad Widnes are back, I thought they were very hard done to not getting a franchise
last time.
We have suffered a LOT in the last few years so we do see it as the world being against us, as it usually is!!
Anyway, looking forward to what should be a great game on Friday.

Take a chill pill man, youre gonna bust a blood vessel or something !
Welcome back to super duper league and I hope that you have a great season, starting on Saturday (after Fridays game is finished, if you understand my drift)
I am chuffed that there is still a way of clubs escaping the Championship and very much hope that your club wont be the last.
All we want is a clear and transparent arrangement surrounding the current franchise system, which currently does not exist.
Good luck on Friday and I hope we dont beat you by too many !

Are you mental? I never mentioned the circumstances of your elevation to SL.
As it happens, aside from a fundamental disagreement with procedural elements of the licencing process, I welcome Widnes back to SL and think that Mr O'Connor is to be congratulated for keeping his powder dry, taking his medicine and doing exactly what the RFL asked him to do.
I'm afraid you've argued against a position that I didn't take in the first place; welcome to the chip on the shoulder club.
