I've watched Widnes since the mid 70's and there has been rivalry which has gone much too far at times but to hold that against a man who has had bugger all to do with what idiots get up to off the pitch escapes me.
He is our coach and for all we know he is/was the best qualified and experienced applicant out there. It is his job to make us perform so it is up to us to back him and wish him every success.
Get over it, bin your sad grudges and get behind the club as Paul Cullen is now part of it - end of! |

Check this quote out"I've just actually walked through the trophy room here and almost broke out in a rash."'"
Now, if that doesn't tell you whose side he is now on, then nothing will...

It's a quote Paul Cullen gave to Radio Merseyside on his appointment as Wdines head coach. He was talking about walking through the Widnes trophy cabinet. I think he means that, as a Warrington player, he won very little and that Widnes have won a lot more.
That's the way I read it anyway. |

Thought he was excellent in what he said, loving the remark back to his playing days "the Hulme brothers used to make you bleed"
He wanted to beat Widnes he made no bones about that but it was all about respect and being proffesional.
Roll on the Culster!
We have the right man

[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 |

Xenophobia towards a man born no more than 6 miles away from your beloved town... It doesn't get much more bizarre.
I'm starting to warm to him.

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]

It's the total over reaction, particularly on the TIW board, to Cullen's appointment. I didn't want Cullen, but now he's here good luck to him.
There have been people sobbing over their poor relatives who've played for Widnes and regard this as some sort of f******g insult to them, and people threatening not to go a game until Cullen has gone.
The bottom line of your post is all that matters. If this doesn't happen over the next two years I'll be ed off with him too. But for now give the man a chance. If you do, then my post is not meant for you.

You need to get over it. He's the boss now, like it or sod off.
Sewer rat is nothing more than an embarrasment. If you honestly think that he wont try as hard because he is a warringtonian you are living in cloud cuckoo land. He is a professional, this is his job. Is he the right man for it? Look at it from a professional standpoint, not an old rivalry one.
You make it sound like sewer rat isnt entitled to his opinion. He is! It's just, were entitled to call his opinions ridiculous and annoying.
Two way street chief.

Don't think anyone is saying what is right or wrong to be honest. Though this inbred xenophobia towards the Wire man is a bit lame on the grand scheme of things..
Cullen more than most outside the town knows how important Widnes is to rugby league and how much the town desperately craves success at the top again. If he can get us to where Wire peaked over the next 6 years I think we'll all be singing his praises.
In any case, I'm from Warrington and still live here now. Half my family is Warringtonian too. What does that make me? People need to get over themselves, especially those tits on the TIW who are too mortified to even go to any more games while he's in charge. Bunch of flaming pillocks.

You've got one of the very best Chairman in the RL world - a real professional (who we need more of in the game) and now you've got a great coach in Cullen.
Through in Webbo as you're new scrum-half then things really are looking good.
Hope things go well for you - you deserve it...
