Yep welcome to Widnes Paul (with a quality name like Paul you cant go wrong)
A good choice IMO, he transformed Wire from relegation fodder to a top six side. Things didnt quite work out for him in the end but as we have seen since he left they have probably gone backwards.

Great signing, will do a very good job for you and is a good bloke to. I have no doubt with him helping to steer the ship that we will have the derbys back in a couple of seasons time.
Good Luck

I know I said he's what Gary Neville is to Liverpool.
BUT
Those people who were party to the interview process knew what was said in the interviews and obviously off the back of that it has helped them to make their decision. I for one will back the coach like I've always backed any other. When we win he will still be Paul Cullen and when we lose he will still be Paul Cullen, he won't be a wire twix. SOC is a very astute businessman and sometimes tough decisions have to be made but like any successful businessman he has to take a global view on the whole situation. And he has looked globally. Hopefully PC has learned from the mistakes he made at Wire, after all that is what learning is all about. He's a PR man too and likes to be seen saying the right things and if that means wooing the press to our advantage then good on the man. If SOC and TOC are happy in the appointment then that is good for me.
He wasn't my first choice but judge him at the end of the season on the performances on the pitch.
This man has got a lot to prove, not just to Widnes fans, but to Warrington fans and the RFL. He won't be happy with getting the boot from the spanglese or England. After all, they replaced him with Tony Smith as Head Coach of England. If his ethos is that similarly to what Stanny said in that if we get 50% completion rates and still score points with the other 50% then that will do for me. I'm just glad it is a Wire coming to Widnes and not the other way round. At least he knows which side his bread is buttered.
The slate is wiped clean Paul. I don't want you to fail. If you fail we all fail. Your Mission is Super League. Take us there. Good Luck.
I've swallowed a lot of pride their crediting PC, but now he is a viking and suddenly I feel an air of optimism for some reason.
IN CULLEN WE TRUST
This is history. This is history. Right here. Right now. This is history.
I thought it was Widnes?

Wakefield turn over a big club every season and i see no reason why Widnes can't do the same.[/quote]

Welcome, Paul.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back! Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY!
