Lets get something right , This Widnes side rested 6 players for this game, this side put 30 on Warrington ,drew with Wigan, beat Rovers with 6 players out including Brown met a Fc side without Sneyd,Ellis, Watts ,green,yeaman,Hadley and whiting scored one good try and one which should not have been and still fans are having a dig at the coach and players? " Why criticise the defence? I sometimes wonder what planet some fans are on. From the start you could see it was going to be a hard task for fc with a very poor performance from Silverwood who gave Fc nothing and to say the 10 was skinny was a understatement .again a win has stuck in the throats of many so called fans and even if we had won by 30 still would not give any credit to the coach or players.

You could also say that widnes gained all of those wins/draws at home on their synthetic pitch and have only won 2 away games in the last 12 months - both against the sides relegated last season. You could also say that over half their team had a disrupted week due to air traffic control problems in France.
All for the sake of balance of course.
Agree about silverwood though. He turned what was always likely to be a low quality game into a disorganised bore fest

I think the vast majority of comments have been positive and there has been no undue criticism of the players. It was a good result but lets not get carried away by the quality of the performance. All true fans will be happy with the win and the 2 points but will admit there is much to be done yet to turn this into a decent season. At least now there is hope for the future.
First there was wisdom Then there was knowledge Now there is only information
for me hokey there are some on here who will never be happy, you have only to read the match comments, saying that i agree with diogenes we have to kick on and get on a roll, for now radford will get my full backing, COYH
once a black and white always a black and white COYH

The vocal backing of a vociferous home crowd has obviously helped to get the team over the winning line Jake. Better that than a string of close losses in a soulless library to be honest.
