Joking aside, the player's do notice the fans. Con Mika has tweeted that he was impressed with the #RedArmy today.
I can see what Nick is getting at, even if there is a little tongue in cheek in his post.

Poor kicking game and never stopped the offloads.

Worth considering swapping Tickle and Westy when we are defending.

Very true, I was also surprised we didn't have two runners when at the play the ball, we seemed to revert back to last season.

Did www.superleaguefans.com/widnes-v ... um=twitter did or do we need another forward? This fella sounds a hefty lad!!

It looked like the first run-out of a team who hadn't had a competitive match to me playing a team who'd had a few more. The defence was pretty good for large periods considering the amount of ball Rovers had but. When it did break it seemed to be lack of communication. We seemed to push a lot of passes and mistime runs etc and so dropped the ball a lot. The penalty count was a bit worrying though - we'll have to sort that out because it can't all be down to the referee only watching one side.

The way Rovers players were dropping like flies throughout the game began to remind me of that infamous pre-season friendly against Huddersfield where our team was ruined for the rest of the season. I hope, for their sake, that those players can get back to fitness quickly. I hope Beaumont makes a full recovery too.
