Quote: Chris B "It was in there but the RFL whipped it out before anyone was looking because they want us in that badly!

I've heard the following has been stealthed in:

Must play in black and white.
Must be on the banks of the Mersey.
Locality must have been host to a large Stone Roses gig.
Club motif must be Scandinavian Marauding Warrior people.
Club must have won one previous World Club Championship.
Club must be based in the town of Widnes.

“We’re looking to supply three or four players for the World Cup team in 2013 and beyond.”

Perhaps you should start by providing three or four players to the England Academy squad. Something which you supposed top quality yoof setup failed to do this year.

All our lads can do is win the league, we don't select the squad! Bare in mind that academy squad also had lads a few years older and a decent % who played SL rugby this year icon_thumb.gif

Hmmm, remind me again how many did your club provide for the England Academy then eusa_think.gif .

Does he hate Widnes too? So that's Paul Simon and Mel Gibson. I've heard Vin Diesel thinks you suck too, despite what Vickygirl says icon_smile.gif

We don't have an academy. We put our money into first team, won the league. You put your money into the academy, won their league. We are using our First Team success as the basis for our license bid, you are using your academy as the basis for your license bid. However our boss isn't claiming that these players are going to be playing for England in three years time.

FYI, the last time we did run an academy we produced several players who have played international rugby this off-season and a few more who were on the fringe of selection to the England team.

Your first point is well just stupid tbh and completely different to ours.

Your second however is spot on, so if you could of achieved that, why shouldn't Widnes aim to do the same? eusa_think.gif

I must have dreamt this then , but I was under the impression Featherstone won the league. You won an end of season play off comp.

Short term thinking.

Quote: Nat (Rugby_Aholic) "you are using your academy as the basis for your license bid. '"


Long term visionary.

I know which one I'd go with.

It is ludicrous to suggest that your first team squad will form the basis of your Super League bid. The majority of those players would not make it into a Super League team.

In any case, there's a number of academy lads who have been promoted to our first team and have staked regular starting places. Therefore our first team is indeed playing a role in our franchise bid and demonstrating that our focus is firmly on developing our own talent for the long term future. Nothing you can say about Halifax can rival that.

Perhaps if you stopped sucking on sour grapes, your opinions might not be so confused and deluded.
