I'm having a real problem with this new board.

No, but the RFL seem to be. Therefore, if you want a licence, so should Halifax. Or they should, and make an effort to bring through their own youngsters. It’s not like you can’t produce them there if you want to.



In other words, you can wave goodbye to a licence for 2012, and with that, probably for as long as this awful licence system exists.



There is also no guarantee that you’ll win anything next year either. I’m sure that Matt the Mouth thinks his side are a county mile better than everyone else, but look at what happened the last time he thought that – he won NOWT!

I think you're oversimplifying the issue now to suit your own argument.



What it all boils down to is lack of ambition. Your chairman is obviously lying when he talks about Super League aspirations if he thinks the same as you.

Here's a thing i'd be proud of a Widnes side full of Britihs and local youngsters playig there hearts out and finishing 3rd 4th in the table.



Could you say the same for Halifax now? As it's as likely!

Mate fax seem to always have an answer, sometimes not worth your breath.

J20 the licence process means criteria as states, such as youth,attendances,stadium.Three ticks already above fax.All we need to do is support our club and bring a friend along next year.

Back to the original topic.



I thought Ostick was being lined up by Saints last season

hence his refusal to take a contract.



Potter was quoted in the media as being interested in a Widnes Forward.



Watching him on Sky his game seemed to go to bits particularly

towards the end.



Has he quit the pro game or has he been picked up by anybody?

Rochdale?

Yep signed for Rochdale.

As already confirmed, Rochdale.Rumour has it, a deal at a "significant " other club collasped at the last minute. Glad to hear the lad has'nt quit the game as originally posted, he's got the ability and the once the application is tweaked a little he'll do alright.



Anobody know whether Simm is still involved anywhere?

Simm has gone to France to play for Carcassone
