| Quote: J20 "Wrongo! Didn't sign for us until after the announcement on franchises!
He didn't quite cut it last time in SL and he's still young so IMO should stay on play 1st team week in week out na d be the key player ready for a return to the top flight in 2012 ![]()
I agree he should stay but if he's only signed on for another year Widnes might not keep him if they get in superleague surley he has to secure his future, whether with widnes or another team?

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]

Ford's a very good signing. Lets hope we can keep them coming. We could certainly do with a few heavyweights in the pack.

| Quote: In EnemyTerritory "On the topic of Thacks.. completely agree that I'm delighted he's staying. A real talent is that lad who has found confidence to go with his gut feel and the extra time that gives him has made him one of the best backs in this competition. He has a nice understanding with Webster too. It's a partnership that will only get better next year.'"
I'm glad he's doing well for you, he was a major influence on our promotion in 2007 and has a great running game and dummy. The only question mark he has at sl level is his defence, but with time i'm sure he can sort that out.
ps are you trying to take over from fev as the place where all the ex cas players go  |

He's one of the best defending halfs in this division... Though his technique could do with a tad more work he's certainly 1 tough cookie!
Credit to the lad he's realised his weakness from his SL days and is woring to improve it, rather than whinge etc... top stuff!
P.s. No as we only take the young good one's with hot prospects

Not really a lot to add to that.. his defence is very good and has obviously improved since he was at Cas.
He certainly had an impact that year for you, if for no other reason than it gave Brough a firm kick up the derrier. He throws an awesome dummy!!!!!

an atmosphere that isn't created by people in matching shirts clapping along to a drum or novelty PA music might be nice!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40764.jpg |

Will be quite frank, not really seen anything of the lad, but comes with high recommendation so that'll do. COuld pair up well with young Paddy.

Fletcher has not signed for any one has he was waiting for an offer from widnes but he has now been told by the club are not offering him anything for next season. 
Would have hoped we could have kept him, played well for us out of interest anyone know how many games he has played this season? |

Not offering him a deal? bit silly that IMO, one of the best if not the best second rower in the divison. Granted if we havent got the money then fair enough but ill be sad to see fletch go.

| Unless we are brining in someone of a similar level and younger I won't be too happy!
Only really a Bracek or someone by my reckoning
VM - THE BEST! IMO! |

Intersting!
I'd presume he's come back saying something like 'Fev have offered me 35k' and we've said sorry but we can't afford to keep you based around that etc! |

I cant see that though, we only have half a squad as it is and need IMO another 5 signings to come on board, I was told Coyle is a done deal along with Ben Davis from Wigan. Pickersgill should be another. |
