If you want stability in a transition then Noble is your man, he'll stop you slipping any further. However I'm not sure he has it in him tactically to get the best out of a Saints squad. He was lucky to inherit a very good Bulls side that made his name by blending perfectly with his forward based risk adverse tactics. If Saints fans can't except five drives and a kick under Simmons, then you'd be disappointed with Nobles approach which is similar. I don't think the Noble style suits Saints or it's personnel, just like it didn't work to Wigan's full potential.

We're below Potter's Bradford in the league, and Potter's Bradford have played Wigan, Wire and Catalans with a pretty badly weakened squad.

We look a badly coached team because Simmons is a bad coach. He is light years behind Potter, not that I would expect those who crucified Potter and trumpeted Simmons' arrival to agree.

The bloke is clueless IMO.

Did you see his post match comments?

Not being funny here,is it the fact that you got beat by Hull that has you all up in arms,or are things really that bad?

Its not all bad, you took the game by the scruff of the neck in the second half. Something we have failed to do in any single game this season with possibly the exception of Salford.
