Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Interesting that the proposed new stadium at Wakefield is being quoted at £ 19 million without the cost of the land in the interview on the Wildcats site

I'd give Sir Rodney a ring , you could save him a fair wedge of dosh

No need for all the insults soldier boy. you had your chance of super league and blew it, all you had to do was beat the cas scumbags. like deehell says you do not deserve a franchise because your team is simply not good enough FACT! you may have a nice stadium but the main point of the franchise is how competitive you are as a team and you fail badly in that department


You related to dee hall by the way?Fact you are only allowed to have a salary cap of £300,000 in this league so it inevitable,all teams be close to each other.Superleague you can be on a low 1.2 million or 1.8 million, which some teams can spend £600,000 more than another team.Fact it not about teams winning grand final it about franchise sytem.Like it or not that is life.We where kicked out for a french team which i thought was unfair.Hey it seems you and your wakey mate got the problem posting on here.Like going around in circles and forget we have been to 2 grand finals and was gutted we lost in both.Won 2 northern rail finals and i know ste o connor got the money, and it talks.Look at football teams such as chelsea and man city.May not like it but that life.Fact again.So please stop going around in circles and if have a problem go to rfl,or i be happy to talk to you in person. :wink:

Okay for starters you are the weakest in Yorkshire in terms of Support (fan base) Cas have much more going for them IMO and the support they get for a town that size is remarkable.

Secondly your stadium is garbage the worst in Super League, balls to the plans until a brick is laid you wont convince me it will be ready for 2012.

And finally money problems '12 weeks to raise and pay HM revenue £192,000 or face being wound up'


Point 1, we are on an equal footy with Cas and Huddersfield when it comes to franchise points regarding attendances....Fact!

Point 2, that's just an a opinion of yours. When it comes to franchise on stadiums points we score the same as Cas, Bradford, Salford and Hull KR. In other words they are all dumps and score nothing.

Point 3, much to your disappointment all bills have now been paid. As a Widens fan I would feel a bit embarrassed about bringing up such a subject considering your recent history. :wink:

Not at all things couldn't be any more rosy. We may even draw you in the CC and you can come and play at our shiny new ground, assuming you still have some petrol money left after your long trip to Whitehaven the week before. :lol: :lol: :lol:

How can you dismiss someone's opinion while claiming an opinion of your own as fact? I can't wait for the school holidays to be over and trolls like you won't have so much time on their hands...

Our recent financial history has nothing to do with any current state of affairs so to use it in any trollfest just shows how weak minded you are...

Very true Stan but I feel your wasting your time trying to explain that. It seems like Widnes fans think they have a god given right to be in SL even though the performances on the field are a joke! :thumb:

The truth is you've come out crying with a bunch of ill informed, unsubstantiated nonsense. You've nothing worth even arguing against. You've come onto our forum spouting a bunch of crap about Widnes then start moaning when we question your motives and your own club's sustainability in Super League. You've failed to answer any question that has been asked of you and changed the subject completely.

It's not difficult to see what you're doing. Only an utter moron would convince themselves otherwise.


I haven't said anything ill informed or unsubstantiated nonsense as you put, all I've done is state some facts that sit a little too uncomfortable for some on here.

I haven't moaned once about been questioned about my motives, in fact I welcome such opinions, it is after all a forum.

I have answered all questions, it's just you that refuses to listen. :FRUSRATED:
