O'Neills YouTube promo : Wed Sep 23, 2009 4:30 pm  

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLLFuXUW8PI Widnes seem to be a major part of the O'Neills brand marketing, if not the major part. There's an interview with Pat Cluskey, Ostick putting the kit on, shots of our kit being made in the factory, several areas where live game footage is shown and even the Widnes shop is featured. It's almost a promo for the Vikings too. Well done O'Neills!

Yes seen that before but would rather forget about the game in the background.

They wont want to be associated with third tier rugby teams either so i can see them fecking off Leigh.

A very nice kit this year too, nice range of merchandise available and we seem to get a good deal out of it.

Yea lot of Widnes on there shame no NRC lifting for 'kit of champions!'

We could do with more flyers etc though! Maybe that could come with -100k cap? I'm no expert BUT what 14games... 1k worth of flyers = 14k? Out of 100k may be acceptable etc!

You can't just stop there, if you can't say word for word, you can at least give us the gist of what he said. Then just add allegedly at the end of your post for good measure.

The O'Neills shop at the LSV has already been shut down and from what i have heard this was done a few months ago as the Leigh fans weren't buying enough gear to make it a viable business.
