James Webster : Sat Feb 14, 2009 12:33 pm  

Could any of you lads help out a Widnes fan and tell us if James has any coaching badges?

Thanks.

Dont know ......but he did coach us for a period between Harvey Howard going and Justin Morgan arriving ,,,,,and he had a very good win/loss record

He only lost one and that was the NRC Final at Blackpool against Leigh and to be honest although not officially Morgan had spent the week coaching the lads and had a say in the squad selection so for me Webbo went un-beaten!

Dont know if he holds his badges but one day I hope he replaces Morgan as head coach at Rovers.

Incorrect Nick, you have your years confused. With Webbo in charge we won the NRC against Cas in 2005. His only loss was at Oldham (which was incidently the only game he didn't play in whilst coach).

Totally wrong Nick.
Webbo lost as a coach at Oldham.
It was against Cas when we won the NRC that Morgs had a watching brief in 2005.

Thanks everyone.

I'm thinking he could do a good job at Widnes.

Crowbar = Apparently he likes to drink Pedigree as well so should get on well with you

Already stabbing the coach in the back to the Chairman Mr O'Conner, expect his appointment before Easter as Fulltime coach of Widnes Vikings.
