| Half decent ground? Just about.
Big support? No.
History? Not bad that's all. But it won't win them any points in 2012-14.
Good side? No. Just been thrashed by the 'mighty' Leigh so imagine what the likes of Wigan,Warrington and St Helens will do to them.
Prospects in SL? Booked in to be wooden spoonists for all of the Vikings 3 year stay.
I really can't see what all that euphoria was about in Widnes land yesterday. Once the 'honeymoon period' is over it will end up being truely demoralising watching your side get taken to the cleaners week in week out. You heard it here first.

We will bring more to SL than you will ever bring to an intelligent conversation, Thats enough for me.
We may well bring more to SL than warrington did for their first 12 years in it, you just never know.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Take your current squad , reduce it down to 300 K and see what sort of team you would put out against Leigh , we'd take you to the cleaners as well , Widnes will do fine , it will take. Couple of years , but they will do fine

Big Support? Yes
History? Yes
Good Side? About as good as Wire were for a decade or longer.
Prospects in SL? Struggle in first season, then playoffs.

I'd best get on the blower to the club this morning then and tell them not to bother, you clearly know what you're talking about.

Righto, thats enough to generate my first post on here, read the forum a lot but heres goes,
I imagine over there at the top of your 'Weve won two challenge cups' big tree, you look down on all us mere mortals scrabbling to apsire to be you. What you should know is that we look up to the top of the mighty wire tree and see the odd prize primrose and blue posterior staring back at us.
If after ten years of hard work, effort, no doubt the odd hammering here and there, we should have the bare-faced cheek to have apsired to greater things, just like you lot have done, then, just as now, Ill consider your initial post to be some of the best drivel Ive read in years.
Also, I hope and pray that we never develop such an up my own wotsit, were all better than you, attitude that your recent successes have given you. Why not just bask in your rightfully earned glory and allow the rest of us the chance to earn some of their own.
Now jog back off to the top of your tree whilst I, along with a fair few happy Vikings, plot ways to show you our black and white backsides.

| Actually the question is ''What do the others bring to super Super League'', because at the moment Widnes are the only club with a licence for 2012/2014. As for our current team, do you really think we will have the same......Oh I can't be d explaining to bell ends anymore.

To be honest Warrington have always been the club I follow in Super League, but the arrogant way their fans are behaving is making me start to really dislike them. I actually think a ot of Championship fans like me will want Widnes to do well, and give the clubs in the lower divisions some hope.

50086_1357229109.jpg [b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag.
[b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg |

Ignore this end of a bell. 8 posts, 1 on the Wire board, 6 on Wigan. Blatantly a Wigan fan trying to make Warrington fans look like arrogant nobs. We don't need any help.

| They have always been arrogant, even when they were e.
They are quickly becoming the most detested club in RL.
They obviously see Widnes as a big threat to them judging by the number of Dire morons posting on this board.

40764_1260374436.jpg an atmosphere that isn't created by people in matching shirts clapping along to a drum or novelty PA music might be nice!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40764.jpg |

| As I say, lets just enjoy our moment. Balls to Warrington, and the rest. Lets celebrate our own success.

Think you will find the majority of wire fans have been complimentary about Widnes's return on this board.
