get in !!!!!
correct chioce in my view
took them long enough though to be honest
surely their first chioce should have been cullen to begin with
anyway brilliant news onwards and upwards now then
well maybe not it is widnes after all

After watching Widnes since 1969,i have seen all the glory years,watched them in the dark days of not getting in the Murdoch league first time around,Canal Street,losing two grand finals,going bust,and the darkest day of all,welcoming a failed born and bred w**e coach to be boss of our ONCE great club.My god a dark day for our club.We have one more stab at getting back into the big time and we have put our trust in a failed w**e.

Not wholly overjoyed to be honest. Not because he's a Wire but because of his record at Wire. Wire's problems however may well go beyond Cullen and the only thing we can do is welcome him and give him a chance. I still remain to be convinced that this side and our new coach will perform as anticipated.

If it wasn't for Cullen Wire would still be a mid to bottom table side. He turned them around into a top 6 side. Likes to play expansive rugby and with the players we have im more than pleased with his appointment.

Don't be shocked if he brings all his failed w**e mates with him instead.

Ha ha Monkeyman, Gaskell has been oustanding for us and Toa Balboa is a good centre at this level. Varkulis also ex wire is going well.

Vic King has it right on the other forum...
If he fails then we as a club have failed so why don't we try something novel and support this move rather than look forward to the 'I told you so opportunity..'

It's upset some supporters but in the main because he is a former wire.. and the word former is of the upmost importance.
As for his record... if we fail as Warrington failed then I will be ecstatic because it means that we will be up and challenging in SL and falling at the last hurdle of winning something. At the moment the prospect of that is very enticing.

I am not trying to put forward an i told you so attitude if he fails, it's just a opinion of one very disapointed old school fan.I think you will find i am not alone too.
