The rock star mentioned is in fact 73! just saying.....

My grandad was a lifelong socialist but in his twilight years he had the Daily Express delivered on the basis that it made him so angry it kept him alive . Not sure why I thought of that when I read your post?

The person you describe as a "barmpot" is a self made billionaire. How much are you worth?

True worth can't be measured by the size of a person's bank account surely? If you don't agree with me PM me your salary and we will see whether I will have to concede whether you are right and I'm wrong (only joking about the last part by the way the concept of wealth = worth is outdated)

Back on topic I like the Brown signing, maybe over priced maybe not we shall see, but, there's no point having cash in the attic or a sugar daddy and doing nothing

Think Brown was the best we could do and it was a sellers market. If we had brought in someone cheaper but not as good people would've moaned about that...

"moaned"?

Saw this on Twitter - interesting:

Widnes Vikings league results 2016. WITH Kevin Brown P24 W12 L12. WITHOUT Kevin Brown P6 W0 L6.

If my dad gave me half a billon and loads of expensive property in the biggest city in the world would that make me self made too......

In the election talk I heard one analyist say he had actually don't quite poorly with what his father had left him. ...

I'm guessing lefty hasn't supported the klu klux klan so in my view lefty has...
" more in the bank " than the trump family. ...

Was trying not to be inflammatory...

self made?

Its not really self made when you're given a very successful business to run in 1974 and inherit 200 million really is it?

Still, he has managed to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy on 3 occasions...He even managed to bankrupt a CASINO leaving more than 400 employees over 2 million dollars out of pocket from their retirement accounts.

I would go so far as to say he is a racist, sexist, homophobic narcissist, who displays many dictatorial traits.

I'm happy with the Brown singing though.

His pre-match version of "My Way" should get the crowd rocking.

GOD DAMN IT

He is going to HAVE to sing now for us isnt he?

...any way Kevin Brown has signed.
He's a good un.

I'm so glad you posted this. When I first read Singing Warrior's post I thought my head was going to explode.

You did however forget to mention his online 'University' and all the people he conned, as well as him currently holding the world record for the most litigations against a person (Yes, I watch John Olivers show on Sky Atlantic).

Club have confirmed Brown to wear 6, Gids to wear 7. Any Gidley 6 shirts will be replaced FOC. https://warringtonwolves.com/club-news/ ... e-6-shirt/

Gidley will be our starting 7, so why would it be loopy to give our starting 7 the number 7 shirt?

I thought that statement may dispel some frustrations that the RFL wouldn't allow us to change squad numbers, and we get a complaint from a whole new angle.

Only in this forum....

just out of interest, how old was Lee Briers in 2009?

I hope when the season starts all the "silly season" willy waving will stop. In fact I'm hoping it stops sooner than that, but I'm not holding my breath.

Seven years younger than he is now,sorry couldn't help that he was 31.

My worth may not be calculated in rubies and diamonds, BUT, there is one thing I thank the Lord and the little baby Jesus for.......

.....I'M NOT FROM WIGAN

I am truly blessed. Hallelujah, brother.

On reflection I was disappointed that we have lost the excitable little man Sandow.
But I've always thought Brown is a very clever distributor and he'll fit in fine. Jonathon Davies always waxes lyrical about the skills of Kevin Brown ... and he does know his back play. I think we have done well.
I really couldn't give a toss about the money we've paid ... I don't think we are short of money.

Disappointed about Sandow but OK with Brown, and probably the best available out there.
Take your point about the fee, but I do want us to have a sustainable business model and NOT rely on a 'sugar daddy'.
If we're funding purchases out of real profit then that's fine for me.
I like our board to use there 'business acumen' and 'rugby league nouse' rather than their wallets.

so Brown is a little older....he might do a job for us. Might.

Playing in two big finals must have helped us with our finances.
