Quote ="Giantscorpio"Celtic are not a nonsense club as you put it. Any promoted club always struggles to start with, and the team that comes into SL invariably has to ship out at least 75% of the team that got them there, and bring in better players. They are now a member of the RL fraternity and need all our support. So get behind them and stop putting the boot in.'"
Ok, I have some emotional ties to Widnes first and foremost...a relative of mine played for them when they were the cup kings and therefore I take an interest in how the are doing. Also looking at the criteria for a Super League license there were other teams which IMO tick more boxes, but I'm not the one making the decisions. I'm all for the Welsh having teams, I just feel they were promoted far too soon. I mean they have only been around for two years or so right? Now then if we had of lost our SL place to enable them to take part, how would you have felt about it? A few more years in the national leagues would have done them no harm IMO and that way we get to see how viable they are.
