WE have a picture gallery for you from Widnes Vikings’ Championship clash with Batley Bulldogs at the DCBL Stadium.
It wasn’t the performance Vikings wanted though, falling 24-16 to a third consecutive loss.
Head coach Allan Coleman expressed his frustration at the showing.
“I’m really disappointed. I thought we were poor,” he said.
“I feel we could have done a few things differently and I’ll take responsibility for that. I’m a coach and I want to learn.
“I’m disappointed with how we panicked, how we executed, and just generally how we behaved on the field, to be honest.”
Vikings: Owens, Butt, Fleming, Brand, Brookes, Roby, Gilmore, Kirk, Johnstone, Murray, Lloyd, Wilde, Gregson. Subs: Fozard, Langtree, Roberts, Brogan. 18th man: Brooks.
