The last time we heard from our so called chairman who by all accounts, sits on his arse, cant negotiate with the council, doesnt invest anywhere near top 4 champ levels and is petrified of a word of criticism, was on north west tonight before the wire game.
Where is he when were strugging and where is his hand in his pocket or getting investment when we are being outspent by Oldham who have 1200 fans and are in their first good season in 25 years
Could you provide a link to the video of our chairman on tv, I hope he promoted the club 🤣👌
I spoke to a representative at the club a little while ago from the states, I can’t remember his name but he’s from Wigan I believe. Very respectful and friendly phone conversation and he came across well, I was actually surprised he answered my call especially with an international call.
I’d suggest a mid season members meeting and invite the local business partners along and answer the questions from the fans and exhibit the business/ambitions of the club moving forward as I feel a lot of supporters think that the club needs more help than is being given at the present
widnes Vikings needs to be marketed much better moving forward as does the whole sport, let’s be at the forefront of the change needed

That will have been SM who took your call. Wigan accent has 'outed' him. 🤣

@pauliewalnuts Maybe a free pie with a season ticket then 🤣 much more appealing than a stronghold top that some tight arses are still wearing 🤣

Aye, remember those (SH tops, not pies)? 😀

I don’t know how wealthy Stuart Murphy is, and wether he can afford to put more money into Widnes, I presume you do.
At the last fans meeting, he attended and had a go at the council for their lack of help for the club, I’m not sure if he sits on his arse all day doing nothing, can you give us some details of how you know these things?
As for Oldham doing better than us, with 1,200 fans, I think a lot of people know, the reason they are doing a lot better, is because they got a new owner, businessman Mick Harrington 2 years ago, who has put a lot of money into the club, buying a lot of good new players for the team, so many that they are able to loan out players like Lawton and Farnworth.
Unfortunately Widnes haven’t got anyone with his money and a few other clubs in our division, like Toulouse York and Bradford.
That doesn’t mean I don’t think we should be doing better with the players we do have and hopefully we will get our long awaited new signing very quickly and our terrible luck with injuries will improve in the second half of the season.
Oldham are doing it the Toronto way. Assemble a Championship side to win Champ 1, then upgraded their squad for getting towards SL(before the rug was pulled).
Oldham have signed some big names for next season, though not spring chickens, the pedigree is A1.

Well possibly you are with WVIPS and go the meeting to express your feelings. Looks like Twinny is trying his best at the moment to get local businesses on board.
