On our way home now. Incredible support from widnes. Great win

You were unlucky with the gower injury. However injuries are part of the game. We had 5 starters missing. We seem a lot more clued up this year, albeit only after one game. Tidy little ground you have

We weren't woeful. On another day, we'd have had put our chances over the line and it would have been closer. The centre is fairly solid.

No chips. Noodles, pork, sausages, but no chips.

Couldn't have put it better. A good performance by Widnes nonetheless. But poor finishing and a failure to do the simple things correctly. Kieran Dixon was superb though for Broncos, I thought.

I do pity Widnes fans though- if the bloke sat on the Broncos side shouting crap all game is a Naughton Park regular, it musn't be fun.

Today was as bad, if not worse than anything under Powell. Added to the debacle in the shop where they sold out of the most popular sizes of all shirts by 2pm - it really has made for a most depressing day. I am sure the move to Gillingham next year will solve all these issues though

And just one lad holding the fort in the shop as well.

At one stage it looked like we were going to be nilled by the Widnes 2nd string.

If that ain't woeful I don't know what is.

Widnes deserved the win and played to their strengths, slowing down our play the ball and some good goal line defence. In my opinion we were never in the game.

Re: Widnes : Sun Feb 03, 2013 7:19 pm  

Why did the forwards not set a platform? We took the ball in once per set then went wide to Gower and off we go. Kaufusi didn't take the ball in once during his first spell. Utter tripe we really were.
Considering how much territory we had we should have won today- To Widnes credit they scrambled really well

I really wanted to be positive about the Broncos in 2013......but in reality, they are heading for Kent and eventually the championship.....hopefully DH will pull the plug sooner rather than later, because at the moment it's akin to watching a cancer patient fade away and die slowly..

(no disrespect to anyone who has lost a loved one to the C btw, it's just how I feel at the moment )

I hope they don't head for Kent. Today was like visiting a morgue, no atmosphere apart from the Widnes fans. Big mistake from Gus saying we are on the move, why would you want to watch the broncos at the moment? One new person was with me today and said not coming back, not an enjoyable day out. Poor experience.

I couldn't work if that was a deliberate ploy or just rubbish play.
