1st year was always going to be very tough as you were starting with a championship squad and were always going to find it hard to sign up a starting 17 for SL due to current contract commitments of players. 2nd year you should be able to build a stronger squad as further players at other SL clubs come out of contract and you can approach them, keep building and the 3rd year will be the acid test of where you are.



Rome wasn't built in a day

I never was anti Wigan at all as i have liked the Wigan fans when visited the Stobarts.What i am trying to say is O Carroll would be a decent player for Widnes compared to our Championship forwards?He be better than Pickersgill,Kavanagh,and Ben Davies for starters, and possibly Ben Cross.You have got great talent, and a big conveyor belt at Wigan and i be happy with Kev Brown,Luke Robinson, and a few others from your club, who have not been good enough for the top 4.Yes i like Paul Gallen but that is not realistic.
