We're too busy concentrating on the fact that we support one of the best run clubs in European Pro RL to be concerned with clubs like yours.'"
If you'd read my posts properly you'd realise I'm not trolling |

I never said you were trolling. I was responding to your 'bitterness' comment. |

I have no bitterness towards Salford and it was the Ginger prick who started the thread from Salford?So we accept his words against our club on a Widnes forum?Somehow i do not think so.Widnes deserve a licence and will do well in a few yrs in Superleague.  |

Erm... I could be wrong, but I suspect they will use a strategy called "sign better players". They do of course need to be careful to avoid the Leigh strategy of 2005, which was "buy considerably worse players" and the general Salford strategy of "Sign mediocre players like Feka and shout from the rooftops about your soil samples" |

I do not care to be honest, as he is a prick when got no facts, and knows nothing about the Championship.He is blinkered to what we have to do, to satisfy the Rfl.Once in Superleague we can buy top players.So this ginger prick can jog on.  |

It will be interesting to see what Feka looks like after he's taken some dietry advice from McRae.

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]

This is history. This is history. Right here. Right now. This is history.
I thought it was Widnes?
[quote="BIGAL1"]All games are winnable, whats hard to understand about that.
Wakefield turn over a big club every season and i see no reason why Widnes can't do the same.[/quote]:7294.jpg |

Edited for the avoidance of any doubt for the benefit of the OP: 
I'm not one for going on other clubs boards, it doesn't float my boat but each to their own. Although I have to say I do get a kick out of people coming on here and slagging us off without foundation. It must prove we are doing things right. People are scared of us. We've not made the rules folks, some people are forgetting that. We are simply doing what is asked of us in order to meet the RFL criteria. The fact off-field criteria is a major factor is hugely important for us given the "men in grey suits" culture at the club that we had for years is now gone. We've not just got business people involved but top professionals. Exciting times for Widnii. |

Maybe you should be making that comment on a Liverpool FC forum then? Geography clearly isn't your strong point is it.
