Another enjoyable listen to our latest podcast episode with flash and Mike
I’d totally be on board for the ex-pat bundle and as mentioned we don’t have much merchandise I can see on the online shop to purchase, also mentioned was a badge rebrand as some relate the current badge to the STE OCONNER era

The podcasts are great and I enjoy listening to Flash and Mike every episode (is it sad I actually agree with them out loud shouting “Too right!” Or “Spot on James!” Every 5 mins?).
Are there any further plans to film them like the other RL podcasts @James?
I have to say ditching the WV/long boat badge is well overdue. Reminds me of those bad times with the criminals in charge who rinsed the club for everything they could. Get rid and bring back the Viking badge (even if re-designed).

Thanks Johnny, if only my wife did the same!
To be honest, getting them filmed has been on the agenda for a while. I'm a bit guilty of perfectionism at times so I'm just waiting for us to have the right backdrop/location to do it, but once we do hopefully that will add another layer to it.

Surely the Club could get you into one of the boxes for 2 hours, once a week? After all, it's in their interest to have the Club discussed on the internet 'World stage'

Honestly I feel the club should work with James as he’s possibly the best link from supporters to board. I don’t know if I’m correct in assuming he’s done all the work for the forum and the podcasts. I did suggest the expat bundle a little while ago but I’m not trying to take any credit for the idea 🤣
I live in the Pacific Northwest so a hoodie, key ring and a wooly hat would be a good idea, for those living say down under a training top, cap, key ring and beer cooler or something might be a good idea for a southern hemisphere bundle.
The rebranding could be too much of a cost atm as commercial investors are very much needed for the here and now and without transparency from the board of our current financial situation it’s hard to know where we stand. We’ve heard snippets from interviews regarding our players budget being half of the likes of York fev etc
I think James should work with the club in some capacity because his heart is for the Town and club. I live 200 miles from Widnes and I go games whenever i can which will depend on my shift pattern in work, and things I do with my family on my days off. Joined WVIPS, Pass it on scheme for kids and buy some merchandise as not much in the shop to be quite frank. 🤣 What I am coming around to is the Podcast is very open and honest with looking at solutions to better our club for now and the future. We all know money buys the bigger and better squad and winning also gets bums on seats. The mini season ticket with 3 home games on the run, why not look at buy 3 next home tickets for £50, which will generate earlier money to invest into the club. Do a stream for our away games to buy for £10 a game, especially for people living far away and people who do not go away games too. Do they still have buy tickets from your club before away games, were the away club get 10% of the sales? If so it needs to be advertised more because if 500 away fans at £24 a ticket that be £1200 and if was 20% that be £2400 which would help the club massively. During the season could generate around £12000 to £25000 , which can not be snubbed. This would benefit us massively, especially because some clubs in the league are lucky to bring 20 fans to Widnes.
Just listened to the latest podcast and I can understand flash’s disappointment with things atm but hopefully the club will announce a new signing other than the retention of Langtree which is a good thing.
still optimistic on making the playoffs but not convinced.
I’ve purchased the stream for York game and who knows what we can do with certain players gaining match fitness: JJ, Hall. Players getting more minutes in a new team: Ozzy Mac and Maizen
