The lad has skill and plenty of it, he needs to get fitter and i think he will be a great player for us.

should do well rotating with smithy, we just need some good ones thrown in now like Johnson and worth for instance.

Who? Gremlin or Coyle?






I must say that I'm a little underwhelmed at the signing. His fitness and discipline are a concern. Hopefully that area will be dealt with as soon as he gets on the training pitch.

He did make some classy plays, but drifted in and out of the game and just didn't stamp his authority in the way Duffy can. Hopefully that is just as a result of his fitness.

We'll see.

But we have excelled all my hopes for the season with what we have won.......
Seriously you must be making a lot of cut backs to sign someone of the `quality` of Coyle.

To be fair, he won't be one of the key players, and will fill the role that Duffy did this season, as cover for the half-back position and to spell Mark Smith.

Perhaps you should wait and see what our squad is like after we've finished recruiting, before passing judgement of how much we are cutting back by. The club has stated that we will be spending upto the full cap.

Unlike Halifax, we don't see the need to make poop or bust pensioner signings like Aizue and Gene.... Are Halifax going to be the dad's army of the Championship next year?

Is this the start of their new youth policy for next season?

Ho ho ho. Amazingly funny new material viz a viz Gene & Aizue. With combined ages of 74 this springs up hilarious jokes which have never been heard whilst they played at their previous club. It takes the genius wit of Widnes fans to bring this incredible ageist joke to the attention of RL fans. That's why i come on here. Up to the minute comedy. The off-season has only just begun and the boredom has set in already it seems. Here, have a look at this - up to date ticker-tape style breaking news ............ Tumbleweed

Cannot believe a club of your standing is signing Coyle. If your recruitment was half as good as your gates etc, you'd walk this league. Coyle is a very average player and not worthy of pulling on the Widnes shirt. Duffy is twice as good. I cannot understand why you continue to sign such ordinary players. We all know about the supposed box ticking etc,but there is surely nothing better as a fan than actually winning the league. With a bit more brain when it comes to recruitment, you would surely bog this league, rather than finishing 6th, 4th etc. I cannot believe a club like yours does not really ever look like winning the league these days. It is sad that you continue to recruit poorly and waste your undoubted potential
