Even if Halifax or Barrow get the nod, they would need to sign probably just as many as Widnes to put a competative team on the field. However they wouldnt be able to draw on their youngsters if they suffer an injury crisis.

We'll be the laughing stock of Super League a week on Thursday.

Should that be Be-LEIGH-ve?

I honestly think it will make your players try harder a week Thursday.

Second half Leigh were very good but I am not expecting our NRC tie to be easy. Leigh players know that too.

Re the decision this week it is a done deal. Congratulations.

Well they couldn't try any less. Coma patients would have put more work in the second half than we did.

who said anything about ditching the yoof? that seems to be the default response when anyone dares mention that widnes would inevitably have to sign players if we go up.
we would have to sign players and the assumption we wouldnt and should just rely on half a dozen youngsters (not enough for a team anyway) is rather obtuse.

Surely you have more than half a dozen, with all the spouting on here last year about the youth I thought you had a bus full of world beaters

It was the Leythers who were doing the 'spouting' (or was it whinging) regarding the youth and how the RFL, SAS, INTERPOL, INTERFLORA, The Swiss Guard, G8 and The Dave Clark Five stopped you from running the same amount of youth teams as Widnes.
