Rugby League especially Warrington Wolves and probably some other stuff. It's always our year!

How was nothing given for that? Leight player reckless there. #rugbyleague #challengecup

Or maybe not, short kick off and it's back to 21-14 #rugbyleague #challengecup

That could be it now, Toby King in the corner and it's 21-8 #rugbyleague #challengecup

happy with that half. Not perfect but some moments of quality and it's been a really good game to watch HT Wire 15 Leigh 4 #rugbyleague #challengecup

Followed by one hell of a drive by Vaughan 12-4 to Wire #rugbyleague

After a pretty average start that was a hell of a play from Warrington #rugbyleague #challengcup

Got mine for Everton and can't wait.

I don't think you can blame him for tonight, although getting a few of those kicks would have helped. The good part of his game is he adds a bit of structure so Williams can go wandering which got us a couple of tires.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
A bit of a fightback there but not enough and it's 28-16 at the end. Thinking about it we usually play badly against FC it's just that they usually play worse.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
Better start to the 2nd half, FC have a man sin binned and Williams breaks through to put Thewlis over 26-8 #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
We started ok but since Ashton dropped that ball we've gone to pieces.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
A glimmer of hope as Williams scores is cancelled out by more poor defence and it's 26-4 at half time. #rugbyleague

Jesus there were some poor decisions there. But it's 20-0 #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
And it's 14-0, when can we play saints again? #rugbyleague

Mistakes piling up as Harrison drops it followed by a high tackle, need some composure fast

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/04/2025
Another high ball not dealt with and it's 10-0 to FC, maybe I should have stayed away. #rugbyleague

Warrington have had the best of it so far but a dropped ball from Ashton and FC score straight from the scrum. 4-0 #rugbyleague

Been too busy with work to post on here for a while. But it's a beautiful day and I'm in the stadium for Wire Vs Hull FC. #rugbyleague #superleague

Matty Ashton is making a career out of grabbing the ball and running and long may it continue #rugbyleague

And better in attack, excellent from Sneyd on debut 6-2 #rugbyleague

Wire already looking tougher in defence but we need to be #rugbyleague

My god that's a soft penalty #rugbyleague #superleague

Wakefield are a great example of new owners turning things around so it's certainly possible. Sadly I suspect things behind the scenes are worse for Salford and I don't see these new owners making the same kind of difference. Do hope I'm wrong though.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
I also think that the IMG grading could help Salford here. Relegation could be the end of the club, but if they take this year to focus on finances their score might even go up even if they finish dead last, which is looking more and more inevitable in any scenario. #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
I have a soft spot for Salford but this saga just makes everyone look bad. I'm still not sure how the RFL can approve a takeover where the new owners can't afford to pay staff. I think there needs to be a decision soon, which probably means the salary cap stays and players are sold. #rugbyleague

It might've ended comfortably but trust me it didn't feel like that for most of the game.

I'd have to really hate a team to not want them to beat Wigan.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Nearly the end and Musgrove seals it by crashing over 26-16 to Wire #rugbyleague

Another good but of attack from Wire ends with a high kick caught by Currie 20-16 to Wire #rugbyleague

Alfie Johnson now subbed off injured. He won't be in a hurry to visit Widnes again.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
60 min in and Warrington have finally woken up. Some sustained pressure pays off and Max Wood charges over. 16-16 #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
16-10 to Widnes, not sure what else to say.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Alfie Johnson is having a game to forget, clear over the line only to have the ball knocked out of his hand before he grounds it. #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
And with less than 3 min gone of the second half Widnes are level 10-10. #rugbyleague
100
Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
That's the break. Widnes have been solid and were on top for 30 min or so. Having said that they gave Wire plenty of chances most of which ended with mistakes. Hopefully Warrington can kick on in the second half but they haven't been great so far #rugbyleague
100
Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Nearly half time, and Widnes can't deal with a Williams kick so Thewlis is in in the corner. 6-10 #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Widnes twice come close to scoring but a high tack puts Warrington on the front foot and Currie(?) goes over. 6-6 #rugbyleague

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Half way through the second half, Widnes deserve their lead, Wire trying to get back into it but making too many errors. #rugbyleague
100
Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
And predictably Widnes score after 5 min. Some very soft defending again from Wire. 6-0

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 15/03/2025
Made the short trip over to Widnes today. It's great to have this rivalry back even for one game. This should be an easy game for Warrington and a morale boost would be very welcome, but Widnes have little to lose and a point to prove. #rugbyleague #challengecup

Undoubtedly NRL clubs will see this as an opportunity to get the best English players but to a large extent they already can so I'm not sure they need to buy the whole competition just for that.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 12/03/2025
I'm really can't decide if an NRL takeover is a good thing or not but it's a safe bet that plenty will find out you need to be careful what you wish for.

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 02/03/2025
To be honest I think a lack of composure has been our weakness for years now. It used to be any time we were behind, they seemed to fix that last year but it still comes out in the big games.

He does love an intercept

Wire Fan @wirefan.bsky.social · 01/03/2025
The silver lining to this is that it's not for a trophy. You'd hope Warrington adjusted their big game preparation after the challenge cup last year but it clearly didn't work and something needs to change. The best teams lift themselves for these occasions and Wire need to find that and quick.

And another, just 5 more to go.

Let's please see some improvement this half. The game might be gone but it's a long season. #rugbyleague
