Unless the RFL bring in what they did with Crusaders, where salaries and oversees status was scrapped to enable the players to continue to have an occupation. Hull KR got Lincoln Withers and Ryan O'Hara as a result of the Crusaders colapse, and the majority of the Crusaders squad found new teams. It would be a shame for Widnes to lose their top players in this way, and will only add to the disaster that unfolds.

Good luck and i genuinly hope you come out the other end in a better position, as most have mentioned, Widnes is a hotbed for Rugby League.

I went to the game on Sunday and the buzz was great. Was with my dad and he said he noticed people who hadn't been the game in 20 years, I've got friends with the same attitude, "I'm not paying to watch that e". It was good to see the town rally behind the team, sitting rock bottom of the championship and bringing in 5500 fans is a great effort by the club. With the release of some quality first teamers this week, I can see results dropping off, fastly followed by the crowds. It's all about survival this year which for me is almost certain, but play offs will be too far away.

That's just the way I see it for Leigh still, However, apart from Toronto (and surprise package Sheffield - it's amazing what a couple of class half backs can do!) everyone else has been more than capable of taking points off each other. e.g. we've beaten Fev and Toulouse at home, which we failed miserably to do last season, 'Fax have struggled against everyone, (except us!) and Fev have blown hot and cold, etc. etc. I'm not entirely sure that the play-offs are beyond you - although that largely depends on who you can manage to keep hold of. Here's hoping we manage three closer games against you, than we did in SL! And, those three games excepted, good luck for the season.

Liam Hood will be huge for you guys. Very, very impressed with him. Looking forward to the Leigh game more than any, loved the old games at Hilton park and the new ground.
We’ve beaten Toulouse, Featherstone and Halifax and if we win our game in hand over Sheffield were only 5 wins offs a playoff spot


Think we’ve lost too much quality to get there though.

I guess, at the end of the day, if you don't manage it this time you have, just like us, got to be relieved that your club is still very much alive. I wouldn't want any other fans to go through the end of season and close season that we went through.

I pointed out that administration and liquidation were two different things. Is that wrong?
As for "chill", the condescending tone of Mr Dog was worthy of the response it got.....I may not be a tax lawyer or accountant, but the fundamentals I do understand, be that in lay-man's terms.
