Officially gone into administration. What a sad situation.

That's not good at all.
We all know how grim that situation is and I wouldn't wish it on ANY club.
Lets hope they make it back in some reasonable shape.

Players have been told that they will be paid for February. Deduction of 12 points looming.

Apparently they haven't been paid their parachute payment.
I think clubs should be looking to loan players to them, like Warrington did with us, rather than picking over the bones, whilst there's still a glimmer of hope.

Heard they have had the majority it and they still have players on the books.

Besides there is talk if the Widnes club is liquidated next week, Halton Council may have a stadium to sell. Now we can leave the players be, but would be daft not to look at that opportunity.
