Just wondered how other Widnes fans feel about Widnes and the game in general.
After over 40 years of watching Widnes and RL I am slowly losing enthusiasm for Widnes and RL. I have not enjoyed going to the game for the last few seasons, but feel I have to go through loyalty.
However I feel SOC has made some massive mistakes, particularly in the choice of Betts and Cullen. We should have gone into SL with a coach with the correct experience and whom could attract the right players. As of now we have a coach whom is well out of his depth, together we a squad of very ordinary players, many who are injury prone.
How does the club seriously expect to attract new fans along with the current set up.
I cannot believe that people were taken in by the recent display against Leeds. Agreed it was full of enthusiasm, but very little skill. Our tries were not created by crafty half back play or dummy runners, pure luck with a bounce of the ball. Our tackling was again at times woeful, Leeds running through holes in our defensive line in exactly the same place numerous times. and this was a Leeds team who were just coasting through 80 minutes.
I know I am not alone in my feelings for the club as I have spoken to other Widnes supporters whom feel exactly the same way and are seriously considering why the continue to go to matches.
I know people will come on here and shoot me down ( not in the same manner as the terrible TIW forum ) but as I say these are the feelings of a number of supporters.

Quote: Starbug "A RL club is for life, not just Xmas

Steve O Connors only failing at the moment is showing loyalty, and ultimatly ' loyalty ' is a good trait to have, eventually he will make the hard decisions that every businessman and employer has to make, you are fortunate in that your club is strong enough for him to be able to do this'"


Lets hope he makes that hard decision soon and rids us of Cullen and Betts. Really considering not
going again until they get the boot.
And I contribute to Stronghold, VIQI and Dreamticket.

Quote: Old Viking "Do you include SO'C?

The fact that you predicted a poor performance last year does not alter my belief that if we had won the first four matches you would have been saying that it is just a flash in the pan.

Don't think you are being shot down, but just disregarded as one of the few permanent doom and gloom brigade.'"

Sorry pal yes ! Last time in superleague we had a great team and there was players out there to sign but money talks! And the saying you get what you pay for comes to mind s o c employed or made descisions about the coaching staff ! We struggled in national league so how was we ever going to compete in superlesgue ! And everybody on this forum would never believe with player quality would win 4 straight games possibly only oneself!
