| Welcome back to Superleague!
I really enjoyed the first half of the match tonight, it was very competitive and entertaining. Same for the first 10 of the second too but then Widnes seemed to implode, which they kind of did in the last ten during our friendly at Langtree Park so presumably there is an issue of match fitness there (mental and/or physical) which should get better as the season goes on and all your non-SL players get used to the demands of superleague. The discipline needs sorting though. Can't be giving away that much ball or that number of penalties and hope to win a match at this level. I also think you really missed Watts. He looks like a good, creative halfback. It is a real shame he was injured in our friendly as I am sure his presence in the team tonight would have provided Widnes with more tries in the first half when Wakey were under the kosh.
It's a shame the team couldn't pull off a win but this first season is going to be a tough one. Hopefully the fans will adjust their expectations and stick with the team. There was a really good turnout by fans tonight and they were clearly heard, particularly in the first half.

| Welcome back Chemics.
Got back very late and have watched the sky plus from earlier. Seemed to be a lot of fight there and I thought you
did really well considering the step up. What I thought was great though was your attendance. I don't know the
exact figure but Barrie said it was over 8k-outstanding. I don't want you to do too well as I have many bad memories
from the end of the eighties and early nighties but it would be great to have the derby again where were on equal terms
at the top of the league.

Widnes were terrible for most of the game. Clarke never a half back in a million years, hanbury poor apart from a decent kick once and looked like a championship side. Wakefield were made to look good cos they were dire for big parts of the game. Long Long season for Widnes nailed on bottom of the league on that showing and their poor recruitment'"
Nice to see you went to watch your own team tonight... Wanker.

| Great game last night, although I am a Wakey fan, don't be too downbeat, it was your 1st game back in the big league and you have a lot of new faces, stick with the team and the coaches and the good times will come, and that's speaking from experience after following Wakefield for over 30yrs, welcome back to SL and good luck for the season.....

Did you go to Sheadingley to watch Leeds then or were you in the armchair brigade?

So after 5 post you manage this as your best.
To answer another posters question "what do you get out of thi Rhino Roys".
Well the answer is that Roy is a small man in every sense. The only way he can big himself up and have any self worth is to live through his adopted team and by doing so attempt to put others down - such insecurity and bitterness is sad.
So you were bullied at school - get over it.
FWIW it was a good game - hats off to Widnes, reasonable skill and a massive show of enthusiasm. For me and it's just IMHO Wakey were the better team from the start but were simply not allowed to play for the first 40 - fatigue eventually told on Widnes and we edged it. Wakefield look a good outfit on first viewing but no one is predicting that your SL title is under threat from us - not this season anyway - happy now feel big again?

| as point for expanding the game Widnes has been used as a scape goat and it was great to see you back where I believe the club belongs,
last nights night visit was really enjoyable as a traveling fan not just because of the result but the stadium, friendly atmosphere, stewarding was all spot on.
if there was any complaint I had to make was the price of the bottled refreshments at £3-80 a half litre shame that

I know you're a real ale drinker Snowie, but the carlsberg I had was cheaper per ml that at BV.
