| Can anyone confirm that Betts said that we (HKR) were lucky to win on BBC radio?

Wouldn't me surprise if he did.
I'm usually a positive optimistic person and give players coaches the benefit of the doubt. But yesterdays performance and post match comments are inexcusable. I don't think I've had a more miserable experience watching Widnes. We were dreadful, just dreadful.
Hull KR played in the same conditions, scored 36 points and didn't concede a point. Too cold? Fuck off Betts.
He has to go as simple as.

| Kite and Phelps and the loanee from Warry will make a difference, but seeing how recruitment is on-going it is also unsettling for the players. The team looks along way off gelling as a unit, I could see no difference in your first match against Wakefield than against us yesterday - if anything you seemed to have gone backwards.
I think you still need to give Betts a chance but maybe he needs a Director of Rugby to support him. . .Brian Noble is only a phone call away.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| What I don't understand is, in my opinion, Steve McCormack was given his marching orders (as was John Stankevitch) for a lesser penalty, so to speak.

| Quote: wirethunder "Given the quality in the Widnes squad,or rather lack of,i seriously doubt whether a world class coach could do any better than Denis with this hapless set of players.
Widnes fans had unrealistic ideas about what they were going to do this season.
This is Super League. You were destined to finish bottom with such a weak team. It's silly that 'Vikings' fans thought things would be any different to what's currently happening.'"
I don't think many of us were that delusional about our prospects this 1st season back,anyone with any logic KNEW we were going to struggle with the squad we have and now even more so with Watt's injury.We were hoping he could have given us some direction in attack.

| Personally I'd hold fire until after the London game / 'give him a chance'. A half decent performance against Wigan, a really decent performance against Hull FC, and a win over London Broncos and I'll be a lot happier.

I really doubt any of this is going to happen, its just delaying the enevitable.
We are team with very little idea in attack and shocking in defence. Action needs to be taken as soon as or we will lose more and more support.

| A new coach could look around for players to add to your squad.
There's Fisher at Batley who's on loan at Catalans but can't get a game there.
Ryan Hudson is at Cas and can't get a game there due to Milner and Clark.
There is usually a decent NRL player each year who gets a ban and ends up over here. These together with O'Brien, Kite and Phelps together with a coach who knows what he's doing may turn things around and get a win or two.
Leave it as it is and it will carry on as it is.
