Please explain these Jesus like miracles?


He's assembled a decent enough squad for this year but is totally unproven, he was a good player for us your correct in that but he remains unproven as a coach.






Love a brew.

Any coach that we employ next will most likely be out of work because they have either been sacked or left a club of there own accord ie Hanley.


A tough choice to make and im glad it isnt me on the panel choosing.


Yes.

Jon Sharp was able to create a well organised side with a lot less funds than Cullen had.

That's what Widnes need. A coach who can organise the team. A John Kear type coach with a great tactical acumen, who can spot a good player at a reasonable price and work with what he has. We shouldn't be bringing in coaches because they have a reputation of getting big name stars to throw the ball around. Any fool can do that.



I think Jon Sharp is the closest thing, who may possibly be available, that can do that.

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!

Steve O'Connor has said they haven't been looking for anyone yet, and will be going through a selection process when they do. He also said he's in no rush to replace Ste Mac. So I doubt anyone has been approached at all.

Pepe wrote:'Revitalisation' has been going on since last year. We already have an all-round set up that is better most SL clubs. The youth development is programme we now have in place is probably unique in the game and is regarded as ground breaking.

There is nothing Paul Cullen could add to that, except coach a winning senior side. That's all that's missing now. The only question is, can Paul Cullen do that?

Personally I have my doubts.


Nothing else to improve off the field, things are perfect in less than a year. :?

What could he improve, other than on the field, first team performance?

Do you even know what has been going on at the club since SOC arrived?

No one is perfect, but I'd say off the field we are approaching being a match for anyone.

Andy Greg or Jon Sharp.






We're the first ones to starve, we're the first ones to die
The first ones in line for that pie-in-the-sky
And we're always the last when the cream is shared out
For the worker is working when the fat cat's about
