| I fell asleep. I admit it. Dozed off for an hour, the mild murmering of the crowd and the slowwwwwwww action on the field was too much after a week at work. The GPW stadium has the atmosphere of a morgue and the fans are about as much fun as a beach holiday in Birmingham. I officially hate the place now, they should knock it down now, or put the fairy lights back. Tonight was like watching a reserve match in football with 112 people there.
So 2010 then. Is there a signing to be made to at least poke a stick at a reason to buy a season ticket?

| The bunch that stormed off at the final whistle, Lead by the man himself Sean Long. Now it might not mean much to some people but whether we win, lose or draw. Saints have always appreciated the crowd. Not tonight!
There is something seriously wrong at the club imo.
PS. Thank Christ Sean Long is on his way out. Gardner next please.

| I can't remember a season in which there has been so little entertainment in home games.Potter can not motivate and has no tactics other than drive up the middle.Some barren times to come.

| If Potter had a spine he would drop Long from now on but "Pansy" lives up to his name.

But what about the fans who according to Ray French were leaving with 20 minutes to go, were they not disrespectful?

God help them if we don't win anything this year, you'll be able to walk across Carr Mill dam on top of all the sad acts that will have thrown themselves in!

| You can look up my posts this season. I have always defended Potter. Now i realise what certain people are sayig is true! He as no tactics, no game plan. Drive up the middle. SH*TE.
I was bored at KR once again tonight. Just no excitement at all.

| As I pointed, out on an earlier thread, Catalan are not a bad side, they have a fearsome pack, and in Greenshields, Mogg and Bosc some of the best backs in Superleague.
They are the team I don't want to play in the play offs.

It's not all his fault to be fair. McManus has to take it on the chin that despite his achievements at the club, squad development is not one of them.
Being out of the running as we enter the plays isn't that bad when you look at it objectively. All but 1 of the teams is in a worse position (2 if you include Wire who are still in London celebrating).
It was always going to be a decline after the legends of the club departed or got old, it's just shocking that it's happened so quickly.
As I've said for weeks top 4 next season would be a great achievement with the squad we've got.

Think you saints might be over-reacting, you did,nt have much to play for, salford were never gonna beat the wino,s and it meant a lot more to the frogs legs. A wounded saints is a dangerous beast. We,ve done you twice, three times...mmmm dont know about that. Yes i think i might prefer the wino,s. Shocking if they did walk without clapping the fans though.

Yes, and we slaughtered them 54-4 or some such in the CC round at KR.

But that doesn't explain this season, and certainly not the last three matches when we have had everyone back from injury (and definitely not tonight's incredibly awful performance). We've only had Talau missing this year.

| When will people make the connection between 'boring' football and the weakest set of backs - with the exception of Gidley - in ten (or more) years?
With respect to gameplan, Potter can only play with the cards he's been dealt. Is there anyone in here who seriously thinks that if he had Newlove, Iro, Sullivan & Hoppe in the backs he'd instruct the half backs to keep the ball within fifteen yards either side of centre?

| To sum saints up for 2009.
Can't pass, can't catch, no attack, no kicking game, ok in defence, no pace and can't kick goals.
We got to many 2nd rate players.
2010 is going to be a hell of a lot worse.

Be sensible, Rogues. I was responding to your post which stated the obvious about the Catalans pack. However, we dealt with them swiftly the last time we met. Now we can't even find our way home, much less beat them. If you'd seen our performance tonight, you'd be laughing your head off! (Some of us were too as we had gotten into hysteria mode)
