Quite simply NO!
They are a Superleague team missing a handful of their squad - we are a part time Championship side. If they lose many more though it would be a close run thing.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”

Let’s just concentrate on trying to beat teams in the league we are actually in.

Turning the question around slightly... Would that side be completely dominant in Championship? I think not, especially considering on SL money! Probably every other SL side would be clear best by a distance!

No. If we were full-time, we'd probably give them a game, one-off.

I’m not so sure that that was ever going to be an option. Once it was known that Wakey had a serious buyer, the RFL would have ensured that Wakey competed in SL this season. It would have been a total embarrassment for them to come cap in hand to Widnes after they turned us down last time. It would show just what a joke the last round of licencing was.
There is no way, full-time training or not, that this current Widnes team could compete with anyone in SL, imo.

| Ask this of four other clubs in the Championship first - probably the ones that constantly finish above you in the league.
Halifax for example
The answer would be same for any scenario - full time vs part time? A million squid a year vs fook all? It's a no brainer - a bit like the OP |

That was twenty years ago you sad sap. Talkin' about the here and now mate. This thread is refreshing though - it's not often we get discussions about "on-field" matters on this site. So, whilst posing a daft question, the OP should be congratulated for bringing the attention back to the playing side of things. |
