Craven pulled up in warm up and shaking head as he walked off ripping his wrist strapping off… not a good sign….
Lyons in instead, very little ball so far, big sheff forwards bashing away
Wow Widnes 10-8 up with 12 men after a dubious sending off , kick to come
dixon converts his own try 12-8
Knock on from kick off sheff score, that could be game over
Some good efforts but silly mistakes. Sheff were there for taking today but that bent ref has ruined the game.
Premature end to another disappointing season. Not sure where the club goes from here. I’ll be there for now but losing energy for the effort every season
It was a sending off two feet of the floor and arm out ref had no choice !!! Another afternoon of the same mistakes and errors !! Pointless putting in effort if can't complete sets we make the game far harder than it needs to be

I feel the same the club don't seem to engage with fans or a plan to get in the playoffs. It is obvious we have lacked a few decent forwards all season especially in the prop department.
Thirteenth defeat of the season with number 14 coming next week.Will finish 8th at best.Atrocious.
Straight red destroyed the game. Seen yellows given for the same and it could be said it was out of keeping with the reffing of the game. If the ref had been so firm from the start then we would’ve at least had a couple of penalties for the antics of their 27.
That sad though, they ran 2 or 3 tries in straight the middle of us which was poor.
I thought it was a blatant red myself, more of the same. Roll on 2024
Even game up until the sending off, Aston and Thacks a better Half-Back pairing than Lyons and Gilmore.
Belshaw has done a decent job in the circumstances but realistically over a period of 3/4 years we should not be consistently finishing 8th/9th.
Let's see what Coleman can do, but I'm not convinced that anyone in the boardroom is grasping the nettle and giving clear leadership and clear messaging to the supporters (to have 2900 home supporters there was good given the circumstances).
Since Admin we have seen VIQI disappear with WVIPs taking over but not yet up to the same input as VIQI. If we are to build realistically we need fans to re-join.
This was the only real financial support that we could count on and even then membership was well short of what it could be.
If its 'our club' we need to be involved!!!! Even the £5 per month level would make a difference!
I realise that times are hard but rather than moaning about the Board get behind them! Agreed they need to re-establish some sort of supporters evening functions that seemed to work well in that regard.
I really hope that the new coach can instill a good work ethic and confidence into next season’s squad. It doesn’t look like we can compete financially with 3-4 teams in this league but we should be making the playoffs and another season of disappointment could prove fatal when less people come to watch the games
Not long now and we should have a clue who will actually be with us next year. Hope that Fozard stays , he plays like a leader.
Good to see some different ideas, chip and chase etc that we very rarely use.
