Wolves keen to avoid three in a row
2:00am Sunday 24th August 2008
WARRINGTON Wolves will be keen to avoid a third straight defeat at Castleford on Sunday as they bid to go into the play-offs with some momentum.
Wolves had won seven out of eight since Jimmy Lowes took over but have since lost to St Helens and Hull KR.
Defeat to Castleford would put a serious dent in the form Wolves have put together in the second half of the season, with just one regular season game remaning against Huddersfield on September 5.
But Paul Wood says the squad should not even contemplate losing.
Wood, who was sent off for fighting in a stormy encounter at The Jungle in 2006, said: “Going into the play-offs you want to be winning games and taking a lot of confidence in to the games, which would be ideal.
“But we don’t even contemplate losing. You can’t. If you do, there’s a good chance you’ll get beat.
“We’re just going to go into this game concentrating on what we want to do and get the defence right, which has improved a lot in the last couple of weeks.
“Hopefully we can take that into the Huddersfield game and then the play-offs.”

i think i would be tempted to show a few players ther door and buy in some top talemt in stead of waitng for free transfers.if the board dont sort this soon the club will end up as it was under higham,low attendances,which would be catstrophic in the long term.
i've heard that warrington are the club with the money,why arent we using it to buy the best talent from the other clubs?

seems moran doesnt know what to do with the money doesnt it?
scully had his chance a couple of seasons ago but told us were to go so up his too!
we need the grit and passion in our ranks the luke dorns we need a player that tears the opposition to peices like he did with us and maybe toopi off leeds now hes been given the boot off leeds , there is plenty of talent in the shop window at the moment but briers, rahihi and a few others need to be shown the gate nearest to winwick road !
The match last night was the one that broke our hearts and we as a club are finished this term, i only hope we get an away game so i can save money by staying away , sorry but i bet im not on my own on this one another woe full season and proberbly another next season , getting stuffed 2 times by the tigers sums it all up dont it ?

This club shows great times ahead one min then implodes on itself !
something has to be done soon and lowes is not the answer !
Idolness and huge salaries seems to be the code at wire , an easy pay day, cushy number , call it what you like ! as long as we pay good money week in week out the so called world beaters will just turn up and churn the odd result out , look at saints and leeds for god sake the likes of hkr and cas nevermind the likes of us get roasted week in week out . We turn it on now and again then blow it like always , your guess is as good as mine for the future of our club , and me for one cant wait for it to finish this term , cant see next being any better !
