I think you know nothing about rugby league you just post on here to annoy folk, you slate everything the club does now it's on the up like you said at the start of the season.......not, as at the start of the season you said our coach is useless he should be shot he needs to go the clubs gone backwards we are all blind as we are happy clappers, I'm sure if I looked back I could read more e, you've dug more holes then a garden mole.

Here we go.

Crack on with airing your opinion Bumpy, nobody will begrudge you that, no matter how ill-informed & negative they may get. As I've said to you a few times, you attract the attention you do due to the personal abuse of Radford, the childish petition to try and get him sacked, and dragging his name through the mud saying he was bullying players. None of which you've ever apologised for, which shows you up for the man you are unfortunately.

Sorry if that was too aggressive.

Quote: Mrs Barista "Oh yeah, forgot about that. Slightly awkward.
'"


The club severed up overhyped mediocre dross for almost a decade and I have no regrets over any comments I have made. If the team put in half-d displays I will criticise, if they put 100% in I will praise.

This season has been a massive, pleasant surprise, but not ever the most blinkered, most optimistic fans saw this season coming. It has inspired the fans again and I fail to see what benefit there is from the usual suspects on here dragging up old posts and threads to score points and start disputes. This club needs every old fan, every disgruntled fan, every apathetic fan and lots of new fans back through the turnstiles to grow and be a consistent Top4 force.

Sorry already beaten to it. Widnes won that accolade at the start of the season by members of the press. icon_biggrin.gif

I don't think this was the point tbf. More the overblown dramatics of "this is my last thread, over and out" then a few wins later here we are. Thankfully.

It's not just a 'few wins' though is it, it's finally a complete change in culture at the club. We are digging in and winning games we wouldent have done in previous years, games like Friday that was in the balance at half time, coming back from behind against Saints. The team are more determined, more consistent, bigger in size and fitter. I doubt anyone would have stuck their house on us being top of the league this year back when we were plodding through dead rubber games last summer. Most predicted a boost from the signings we had made but not to this extent.

I can only repeat again that im not sure what benefit dragging up old threads and comments has during what is a very positive time for this club, apart from to flatter a few ego's on here of course...
