Save our Vikings
Fans raise upwards of £45,000 to save Widnes Vikings from financial ruin
WIDNES VIKING fans stepped forward this weekend to rescue their beloved club from financial ruin, raising £45,000 as the Star went to press.
The former World Club Champions entered administration last Friday after a planned takeover collapsed leaving the club one week to find new owners before liquidation.
Vikings Quids In (VIQI), an independent, not-for-profit organisation supporting Vikings for almost 20 years, has called on fans to help in its efforts to raise enough funds to save the team.
