Widnes Vikings Destroy Whitehaven in Cup Mismatch
The potential for complacency was Widnes Vikings worst enemy coming into today's Challenge Cup second round fixture against Whitehaven as the cup kings of the seventies and eighties took on a side who have never made it to Wembley and who are looking forward to their first season back in the Championship after gaining promotion in 2019.
The bookies couldn't see past the win for Simon Finnigan's side who had done well to knock out the Dewsbury Rams in the last round a week ago. Matt Cook and Paul Clough were making their first appearances for the Vikings and despite no fans being in the ground the home advantage, and i-pitch, would certainly count in their favour.
