Play off ticket money used to get shares amongst the teams involved, I dont know if this still happens

some widnes fans did, the daft ones (which is nearly all of them )

Well, when roger the doger was in charge at Warrington, he was very much in favor of single sponsors, he wasn't happy with how the stadium hoardings looked, with different signage, 150 different companies with 150 different logos and colours all splashed about the place, and was hoping he could entice Fly Emirates to be sole sponser (shirt and stadium ) then he got a better offer and buggered off leaving us in a financial black hole and had ###### off a lot of longstanding advertisers/sponsors by trying to exclude them. Including a main shirt sponsor which meant we went with little known one energy (who i believe is a wire fan based on merseyside). I don't know how much they paid last year but probably got more exposure than ever previously with us getting to two finals

CCC europe went bust, leaving wire in the lurch in late 09. Thats when they went to isc.

Ratchford is making the squad this week

well he only got 5 matches when he did it https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2011/sep/06/gareth-hock-wigan-ban and "it was out of character"

You say that, but i'd kill to see Warrington play against australia at the halliwell jones, one of my earliest RL memories is us playing the Oz midweek team at wilderspool in 94, it was jam packed and a real event. Bring back proper tours and mid week games against club sides. #nostalgia

Well, liam hood will probably still be there in 3 years,

Aww,, thats a shame, i liked big red at warrington

Say what?

He's had ONE injury, which he probably came back from way too soon in a desperate attempt to play at the world cup. Prior to that he's been mr consistent and one of the best backrowers in the comp, do warrington give him give him as much chance as possible before writing him off? absolutely. and as for bodene not being kept on at warrington, he wanted a 2 year deal, we offered him 12 months. And it looks like we're attempting to bolster our squad with youth

only seems to be widnes fans hearing this, there's nothing this side of fiddlers ferry

still maybe just under a thousand or so available on the rfl site in the wire end,

Peyroux came back on in the second half

To be honest, if i was a player and a club started having conversations with me about a championship clause in my contract i'd be telling my agent to hold off and find me another club, anyway it wouldn't be worth the paper its written on come relegation.
