As title says

I think it's fair to say he's been a flop as a signing.

Who's our next big overseas signing then...

Hohaia - flop
Burns - flop
Insert nexr scapegoat name here....

Not been given a chance by KC. It's clear he holds a grudge and that's why Burns is out.

Wonder what Mcmanus thinks of the 60k plus two years wages for him to be sat in stands for season and half?

EM blocked an approach by Bradford around Easter, so I guess he was hoping it would all come good?

now Walsh is injured how can KC proceed with this?

Good luck to him. I hope he finds his mojo, but somehow I don't think so.

Who needs either of them.

After all we have project Turner to save the day.

He was KC's signing too. He wanted him. You'd think he'd do what he could to make it work. I don't think he's ever really looked like a Saints player though but like you say, as he been given a fair crack...

Yes, Turner will now go back into "project" now that KC has established Owen and Dawson as definite starters.

The mind boggles

Wonder if he will now become a successful player again, it seems to be the case often with players Saints reject.

I heard Burns has been questioning tactics that's why he's been in the bad books

KC needs to realise the whole squad and fans are questioning his tactics as well as many other things.

I've heard a different rumour but not going to mention it on here, just that I'm probably the last to have heard it so I'm guessing plenty others have.

Burns was considered a disrupting influence when with us and didn't seem a team player. Lots of shouting down the young kids etc. Chesters first action with us was to say he was happy to see the back of Travis, guess the treatment he got on his first return to CP spoke volumes about him.

Wonder if this side of his personality is behind his exit. Saying hat he played a fair few match winning performances for us as well.

I can just imagine the conversation between Burns and KC right now. Words similar to or along the lines of:

"Boss. How come Jack Owens gets picked in the side every week, ahead of me, Shannon McDonnell and several promising youngsters?"

KC replies - "Jack has the potential to be a points scoring superstar. Only I have the foresight to see it. We need to give the guy a whole season to prove it."

Burns - "Serious question, Boss. Serious answer required, no jokes please."

KC - "Anyone who knows me, knows I don't do jokes. You must respect my every word and decision, just like the media and the fans."



On a more serious note, it's likely that Burns is unpopular, hence his fallout, but equally, he is likely to have shot his gob off in general and pi**ed on his chips. That's why he's been binned.

Don't you dare try and call him back now

I know it's 'only' the Championship and it was 'only' Whitehaven, I am quite happy with his 2 tries 3 goals 2 40/20s and an assist tonight

Travis looked a class act at Whitehaven tonight.

He also spoke fondly of the club, especially your fans and McManus. Again thanks btw, he seems happy and will take us up a level at the business end

KC was harsh on burns. He didn't give him a chance and we've messed about with the halves thst much and he's been ignored it's actually embarrassing for proud man Like Burns.

He's accruing a long list of messing about with players:-

Burns
Turner
Fages
Sav
Peyroux
Greenwood
Walmsley

And all unhappy or been unhappy

You looked completely rudderless against us, I'm more than certain Burns would have made a huge difference on Friday....Cunningham is showing his naivety and lack of leadership in that he can't look beyond Burns mouth and play him for the greater good, it would seem KFC's ego is the same size as his waist.
