tonyvikinggee Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 That Widnes performance was about as poor as i can remember. Dewsbury just ran hard, completed and put in a decent kick. Widnes completed what, 4 sets all match? Given what we have seen of Widnes so far this season then more trips to south Wales may well be in the offing.

Rams were workman-like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even our usually chronically over-optimistic Facebook banter group seem to be expecting the worst and believe me, that is scarily unusual. Surely Kear will have toughened them up over the last couple of weeks? He wasn't happy, so can't imagine training has been easy since. I think if it was at The Shay, I might have agreed too. But the tight pitch at Dewsbury will even things up. Best of luck anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swinton in three weeks looking most likely place to get a first win . No guarantee of them winning at Swinton. They will be no pushovers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rams were workman-like. 5 drives and a kick works in some circumstances. May be boring but gets results. Widnes are really ####### me off. They somehow managed to let Tim Sheens leave over what was a stupid penny pinching move surrounding back room staff, binned off the academy, so obviously no long term ambition. The only player the new coach has brought in was Adam Lawton who’s a liability. A class player on this day but extremely lazy and can’t offload like he used to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SL keeping the money plus Covid did that in. 2019 Admin 2020 Covid. Widnes like Bradford just need a normal season and go again. Unlike Bradford, they still have great infrastructure and good people in charge. They'll come good again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why we need to make sure some funding is there for the championship . A base amount for every team so that we have a place for clubs to dust themselves down, clean up and come again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The penny pinching comment was about a back room staff member who was let go against the wishes of the head coach, who subsequently left. Poor move by the club Widnes could have ran their academy this season as their licence only ran out next season, but deemed it too expensive to keep on, probably giving up on SL membership for a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want Widnes to have an academy but if the SL clubs that benefit wont support it then asking Widnes to find a full time academy at a part time club is absurd.

I want Widnes to have some semblance of ambition, something that sets us apart from our rivals. Now we’re just another small PT club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Taylor Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 HT 26 - 0 to Fev. Best first half of the season from a Fev point of view. Looking a lot more consistent and playing as a team. Making less mistakes. I guess the word in the changing room will be to go out and nil Swinton - that will give them real confidence. 2008 RFL Wakefield & District Young Volunteer of the Year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
