You can never really accurately guess the number of away fans in grounds where you can buy tickets on the gate.

I wouldn't dream of going in an end if I could watch from the side, and judging from the reaction of quite a few people sitting near me I wasn't the only Widnes fan sat at the sides. You can probably add another couple of hundred to the 700 estimate.

the 762 was the official number from the JS stand !!.....doubt there were anywhere near 200 in the side !

Dickhead!

You can't really be more than a bit embarrassed by that score line to be truly honest. Yes we are new and growing (all things I have said many times) but that doesn't effect it.

Positives are the away atmosphere was pretty good in numbers and voice and in an odd way the players effort wasn't really questioned and they did try to keep going. Our huge weakness was just a pure lack of shape out wide. Whether that is due to players out / moved or a more core issue (Mr Betts) will soon be known. As I always say in any scenario like this it's all about how you respond to this result to see how far you have come / can go and Salford on Sunday is a great chance to put that right.

Cheers for good wishes messages from Hudds fans especially. Enjoyed the day around the place as I tend to do I must admit

We were only saying yesterday that there was about 800 away fans. Didn't realise we had some on the sides too. Not a bad following considering cold weather.
