Talking about how he knows widnes are scouring australia for talent!

Firstly, thought they weren't allowed to start building their squad yet?

Secondly, thought widnes got in cos of their "yoof" and that they are setting the bar for not scouring australia for imports!

The more he talks, the more the whole thing unravels! What a t!t

Plus, how could they have been sounding out players in australia if they didn't know they were gonna be in super league? They're not even trying to cover it up now.

And why tell us to make up that final attendance - maybe they have plans for us?

What a charade the whole thing is

Of course we are looking at Australia for top talent, You wont make a success of SL without it. Warrington are probably the best British club with regards to imports but everywhere else there are Ausie's galore. We cant expect our current crop of youngsters to make us competative in SL, If thats what you thought then it says more about you than it does of any seeming problems with todays decision. And when you think of how far into our player pathways structure we are it shows how much work others in the championship need to do to compete with SL clubs in 3 years time.

And we were doing this because we believed our bid was stronger, No gimmicks, No freebie games to take our attendance above 2,500. Just plain hard work and investment. No players will be contracted to Widnes for SL just yet, but many players will have been looked at ready for the inevitable.

Widnes are aiming to compete in SL, Not just coast along in the hope of causing the odd upset. To do that, We will need the best players we can find at the right price.

We were talking to Sonny Bill Williams so it wasn't so cut and dried was it?

anyone is 'allowed' to sound out the possibility of signing a player at any time as i undertsand it. as long as its done through proper channels. dont be so obtuse and childish.
also, by your logic then you expect us to sign nobody and take on superleague with 17 teenagers? get a grip.
how many teams do you know of that have done that?
exactly.
obviousy halifax wouldnt have signed anyone if they had been given the nod.

and it seems to me its simply sound planning to see who is available SHOULD you get the nod.

Mate. You knew. Its not a problem. Nothing against the vikings. They deserved it.

But just see it for what it is. You knew, just like the crusaders and salford did. Why go through the whole charade?

And the bit about the attendance for us? Why ask us to do that and then for us to go to the expense of applying and not getting barra to do it? See. Suspicious.

Again not a dig at the vikings just the farce that has become the RFL

paranoia is what it is. nobody knew anything. and none of you have said anything that even begins to prove otherwise. saying black is white does not make it so.

To be honest I would have started looking who is off contract etc before now. What players are interested at what price. Forward planning. I would of thought Fax also would be seeing who is available IF we get the nod.

But Black is White Look below

pahahahaha! hes also a secret viking

And also a championship gf winner... no tin pot for us

You are the ' patsy ' to justify the application process , instead of the exclusion process

Who said nigel was daft ?

Boring again.............

Can we please stop being paranoid now, Are we a fan base of Hypocrites, We are not in SL but we had last year, Shad, Black, Nash, Branno, Tamghart, Frank. Come on guys, the vikings have to do what they have to do to compete and there is no time like the present to get in their and see whats there, I am sure fax would have done the same. Some could say we did the same last year trying to buy the win with a higher salary cap than the others. Lets concentrate on our season now and leave the decisions to the powers that be, We as fans can do nothing but come out in numbers and support our team and hopefully watch them climb the league again.
Good look Vikings in recruitment
Perhaps we could get Varks back out of the shadows and playing like he used to do for us when they toss him aside.

Paranonia? You bet with the Fat Controller and his sidekick in TOTAL CONTROL and the game being totally corrupt with people trying to undermine each other left right and centre you wonder why???

Its not how we would all really like it as if your face fits you are okay but if it doesn't you are stuffed.

Put the boot on the other foot and see how it feels!
