Its all gone quiet, might be a good time to get back on track.



Was an intense game, can't wait for the rest of the championship season. Bring it on

discapline was good for Fax, far too many penalties conceeded by us for my liking. Best team won, we never really stepped up to the mark.



We'll be back in a fortnight, looking for revenge

these celtic fans talk big when they can't even win a match. who do the celtic globetrotters play next.

Better team won on the night I reckon, although we did play pretty well for most of the 2nd half. Discipline needs working on, and noticed a few things changed from the last few weeks. Always a kick to the corner on the last seemed to be the obvious one. Well done Fax on a well fought out win, and should be a good cup game!



As for the rest of this thread, its just sad now. Yes we were annoyed when franchises were announced, but life goes on and this season will be as good for me as any. I love Widnes and I love rugby, so if you wanna go around hating do it on another thread please. Its pathetic.

Hang on, how was it unjustifyable? I just stated what I saw. Im not a troll and never have been. I am also not just a super league fan but a fan of all levels. I just happen to be from a place that has a decent standard of League played and what was showed last nogh wasnt very good quality IMO. Yes, it may have been entertaining in parts but so can an U14s division 4 game at 1030 on a Saturday morning. I have noticed that this is a problem over here, It seems the lower the standard, the more "entertainment" we get. People complain about the NRL saying its boring... well its not, its just better quality rugby where teams know how to defend. The sooner people stop getting quality and entertainment mixed up the better.



BTW I will be at KR tonight hoping to see a quality game with defences on top and low scores. Much better than grab rugby league any time.

You might want to educate your younger fans as they were singing "Lancashire is wonderful" last night

More likely older fans! Or younger fans aware of our Lancashire past.



We've never been part of Liverpool and hopefully never will be.



Ask a proper scouser whether people from Widnes are scousers and they'll laugh in your face.

Each to their own. To me, that sounds like sitting through a bad episode of Sunday Morning Worship, while eating 3 big bowls of All Bran without sugar. Some people like an expansive game, some like to watch robots - it doesn't mean to say either are wrong and i have been guilty of that in this post and some others. That's the beauty of the game - there's something different for everyone to enjoy.

I thought Ben Black was superb last night, first I've seen of him properly. Cracking player.

Doesn't really help when people with Liverpool/Everton shirts on were standing with the Widnes fans. Plus you have "Liverpool 08" around the stadium and previously on your shirts.

Who said anything about tonight not being expansive? You can thhrow the ball around and still have low scores you know. Thats where the good defences come in.

Yep - i guess. Agreed. Just watched this match again with your words ringing in my ears - perhaps i was a little bist hasty in condemning you





Still - i do think the standards will improve down here "under the stairs".
