Widnes have become a typical Cullen side: dangerous in the opponent's 30 but terrible in defence.

However, it was a cracking game today, the best I've seen all season. Well worth the journey from Hull.

Unfortunately not.

Fans deserve better than this poop - we're in a recession and attendance can't just be assumed. Our support has been good for years, our club hasn't.

Exactamundo! Full credit to Batley for hanging in there in the first half when it looked like it was going to be all over after 15 minutes.

[quote="Jing Ling"]may go on for a long time......he's a good talker when his teams defeated. Look how well he used to speak after Wires defeats and how long he hung on to his job for there.

These big name coaches dont always work in the lower leagues. Id have stuck with John Stank, good young coach with new ideas and no pressure. He also knows the players in this league and did a great job with the 2nd team/academy the other year.

No i'm not his brother, agent or mate. i'd just like to see him given a chance.[/quote]

I think John has already had a lot of experience at Widnes (some good and some bad) like any job there is a learning curve, you take the highs and get over the lows, (im not his grandmother, mother, sister, auntie, cousin, wife, girlfriend or anything oops forgot agent). I think like most who leave Widnes he will do well. I would like to wish John well, his reputation will go before him, and I am sure he will find his way and be ok.

As for Cullen its still early days and I will reserve my judgement until this time next year unless we finish in the bottom two of course.

I am sorry I would wish your team well but I dont read many other area's of the board so not sure who they are, but all the best.

You honestly think Cullen can actually shape the side into his own in a matter of weeks? That's a very blinkered point of view, taking all things into consideration.
