DO WE DETECT ABIT OF PANIC BETWEEN OUR VIKING FRIENDS?!

IT WAS NAILED ON THAT THEY WOULD BE IN SUPER LEAGUE IN 2012....BY MOST OPINIONS....INCLUDING MINE.

HOWEVER CERTAIN NOISES COMING FROM OUR GREAT CLUB, AND OUR NEW SPONSORS DEFINATLY SEEM TO BE CATCHING PEOPLES ATTENTION!!!

PAGE 3 OF THIS WEEKS RUGBY LEAGUER....

AND BY ALL ACCOUNTS ALOT MORE IS PLANNED BETWEEN NOW AND MARCH!

DO WIDNES TRUST THE RFL THAT MUCH?!

I STILL BELIEVE THEYL GET THE NOD, BUT ITS QUITE AMUSING ALL THIS TROLLING!

JUST FOR YOU IM LEAVING MY CAPS ON.

YOUR IN THE SAME POSITION WE WERE 3 YEARS BACK, ALMOST READY BUT NOT QUITE. YOU HAD TO CUT BACK ON WAGES THIS YEAR SO HOW ON EARTH WOULD YOU GO ON IN SUPER DOOPER LEAGUE. OSTICK AND GENE PROBLEMS DIDNT DO YOU ANY FAVOURS LAST YEAR AND IT NOW APPEARS YOU GRASS ON OTHER CLUBS SNIFFING ROUND YOUR PLAYERS



WERE NOT WORRIED WE HAVE EVERYTHING READY AND IN PLACE FOR A FRANCHISE BID.

YOURS IN SPORT

CAPSKOVSKI

If any one goes up at all that is. They may even shock everyone and put both of you up.

chomp chomp chomp chomp chomp

In place of who?

Do fish chomp?

Salford sh[ii[/itty reds

Can feel the tension coming from this post.

The one's from Widnes do

We wern`t the only ones cuting back on wages the salary cap got lowered, I do believe though I may be wrong that the salary cap in Super League could be a bit more so I think we would do ok. You must also have had to cut back on wages last year as how else do you explain your dismal performance.

Injuries Watson..injuries and the horrible situation Paul Cullen was in, he wasn't at training for large parts of the year and took leave for short periods.

This isn't the reason. As sensitive as the issue regarding Paul Cullen is - this is not the reason.

YOUR COCKY ASSURANCE AND HIGHLIGHT OF TWO ISSUES MORE THAN LONG AGO GOT PUT TO BED IS EXACTLY THE POINT I WAS TRYING TO MAKE.

PANIC? POSSIBLY A STAGE TOO FAR.

BUT FOR SURE TWITCHY BUM TIME!



WATCH YA BACKS VIKINGS THE BLUE AND WHITE ARMY ARE ON A ROLL!

And last time you would have gone up if not for going bust. We havent gone bust. Consistantly being in the top three of the league, back to back grandfinals, stadium finished, influential sponsors, new marketing statergy, return of a u23's, crowds increasing. All looks great for Fax. I am sure Widnes will do well in the July round of franchise's though, you will have a better bid than Cas or Salford.

Correction - One stand finished surely doesnt constitute the whole ground?

Yup, it does.

I don't know why Widnes fans are biting. I bet O'connor's already earmarked his spending for 2012. There is nothing more certain on this planet than Widnes being given the license in March. And that'll be that. Widnes up, Wakey down and no more changes after that.

got it dead on there unless they decide to increase numbers again.

But as long as they have Millenium Weekends you need an equal number of teams surely

No need to dilute their income for lil' 'ol 'alifax. A swapping of "dubbya's" - that's all that'll happen.

Unless . . . . . .


Faisal?

Maybe BUT remember who everbody said was going to get the 2012 Olympic Games?

Paris

and who got it -as we all know London. (which should be great looking forward to it).

WE must try and like all things you should try your best and if that means us starting to say WE are going into SL then lets do it!

I have got to smile as when we were at Wembley last year for the CC Final a couple of Widnes lads got talking to us and it was before the play offs so they were cocky and saying they would be in the GF and would win it???
Its a Widnes thing they do think that because of who they are that they will just walk into SL which is a bit arrogant imo.

Just wait til that Qatar'y money starts being invested in the club. The RFL will give us the Club choice of who to kick out for us to replace them!

I'm with Littlerich on this one , Widnes are in , unless something incredibly strange happens Wakey are out , and that's your lot

A good friend and fellow poster on this board summed up the situation perfectly. The biggest problem with our bid is that it seems, outside of the Club AND THE RFL, very few people seem to think it has a chance of succeeding. The great work everyone does at our club falls on many a deaf ear in Halifax.

Regarding Widnes, why do people see Steve O'Conner as a positive element of their bid? Does anybody remember Leighton Samuel? The RFL certainly do.

I really don't see the similarities , Celtic Crusaders needed almost totally funding just to put a team in the pitch in NL 2( as was )

While the 1 million profit claims are dubious to say the least , Widnes are essentially self sustaining since the deal for the Halton/Stobart has been re negotiated , all Mr O Connor will need to do is ' top up ' in whatever league they are in
