It's a big let down year on year. I'm just so fed up with it. Give me a loving reason to continue for god's sake. I just cba getting my hopes up any more. I don't like what the sport has become, and I don't like what the club has become.
But maybe that's just me. I'm getting REALLY apathetic about this.'"
Couldn't agree more tbh

Exact same with me mate, i can even be bothered going away games anymore. I dont even get excited about home games either!
Let down and Widnes go hand in hand.

Come on Vikingman - where's your spirit lad? I bet you give Leigh a right tonking on Thursday - it's long overdue. I suspect that the cloud will be lifted by July. Up the Vikings ! Up the Fax ! Come on !!!!!!!!!!

SOC may have spent differently if this scenario had occurred. If it was all on this season then he would have probably invested differently. As it is - he's got three years to get it right.

Hasnt he got one and a half seasons to sort it??. Its very doubtful at this stage that we will make the NRC or grand final this season so that just leaves next season to even be able to apply for a franchise.
Time is running out and fast. It could be 3, 6 or even 12 years before we will see SL rugby again. Make no mistakes Toulouse will be the side awarded a franchise next time around.

We just...don't deserve it. We're one of the oldest ongoing football clubs in the world when you take in the fact that it all started in this country. One of the founding members of the northern union. Out town has given the game some illustrious names and teams. We support the team through thick and thin more than a lot of other clubs would. And what do we fans of widnes get? Let down by the team time after time and dumped on by the powers that be time after time. As I said earlier, what's the point? It's pretty hard to get up for games when you know your players can do a lot better and your club deserves a lot better. It's just not fun is it?

No Castleford, Hull KR or Salford/Celtic, without showing any disrespect we should have been the dogs b[io[/illocks but now look at us not even in the bloody top three!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's rather depressive being a Widnes fan at the moment.'" Oh I don't know - Leigh are making a decent fist of doing the same.
How's this for a let down. the only home game I think I can get to (because of the bloody stupid evening kick-offs) was on Good Friday. Me and my tribe get there to watch the worst game of live RL I have wever witnessed. Now that's a let down!
But hey - am working on getting to either the Gateshead or Donny game. It'll only cost me over £200!

No offence but it's that kind of drivel that I'm sick of hearing along with 'Super League - where we belong'. No one belongs there! The team's good enough to compete or it isn't. Back your lads and stop crying. If you don't like it don't go!

Sick of hearing it? You're on the wrong board. I've backed this sodding team for 25 years, so don't tell me how I can and cannot react!

I think you should take a stroll through the Heritage Museum or the players lounge at the stadium to get some sort of idea of why we feel the way we do... We were brought up on success, living without it now is painful.

I`m in a similar situation and I`m wanted to express my feelings more on here and the last 3-5 years its been so frustrating. getting so close and having it snatched away from us.
Its a struggle now to get any sort of motivation and I`ve watched a lot of my money shat away .
I`m in total limbo and it rests on Thursday to see if I carry on giving the club my money to the end of the season.
now wheres the pills
