A fan in Toulouse has tweeted it after speaking to Dennis Betts. Not who I'd have signed personally.

Black's just about done. He is a shadow of his former self. Widnes eh? Yep - that sounds about right :D

If true though - thanks Ben. A great stint for us with some great match-winners.

And Behold, a pale horse. And on his back his name was death.

:MOTOR:

I think we all agree, Thanks Ben, it's been great.

Time to move on?

Personally I think seeing Ben run with Shad feeding of him was one of the best sights recently,
You could always tell a try was on the way.

Times change.

I think Ben is like Gibbo, Halifax is in his blood, but it can't last forever.

Just spoken to Ben at home and its total crap. He has every intention of working for a contract at Fax for next season.

He's our best player. Must have another three years left in him. Great news.

Re: Welcome to Widnes... : Sat Jul 23, 2011 7:06 pm  
Interesting the anti-tampering deadline for SL and the Championships is September 1st. Therefore any news about who is signing for next year would mean that a club has broken the Operational Rules regarding making illegal approaches to players under contract.

After the 1st, you can approach any player whose contract expires on 30th November of this year. Otherwise the anti-tampering rule remains in place for contracts with years remaining on it.

So either this is just a big pile of poo or Widnes are in a lot of trouble!
