Why ? Nobody in SL have been consistent as Saints since 1996.

when we got hammerd by Hull in the first game of the season, we had Hull fans come on to our forum and tell us how we were unlucky and not be harsh on our team because we're in transition and we're not the team we used to be.

Neautral fans go on about how good the Wigan and Leeds young lads are, yet never a mention of the juniors that St Helens produce. We had our 2nd and 3rd centre - Wing partnership out today (Wheeler, Lomax, Gidley, Meli) yet the likes of Tom Armstrong (who lookes a 100 times better than Stefan Marsh from Wigan who the Sky Commentators bigged up) stepped up to the plate. All i've heard all seasonis how St Helens RL is doomed etc.... Well guess what.... FU**CK you!!!

We will still fight with everything we have. We had 2 overseas players in our team today yet wet tonked a decent Hull KR tea, I'm proud as punch and i'm love our lads.

Not saying we will, but if we do turn you over next week in the cup I'd like to thank you for the sig material now

If you read rover49's post again,you'll see that his responce was to you referring to Rovers as top 6 contestants,and that he wasn't having a go at St's at all.

Great performance by your team tonight btw
Imo I don't think many teams could have lived with your team tonight,barring Wigan and Wire.

How many people attended over the two days would be a more interesting figure than the RFL and Sky adding the two day's figures together.

Dunno how you could separate that out TBH.

It is a pretty standard way of accounting, the same happens with season ticket holders at regular games.

Will everyone stop banging on about using the COM stadium you can only hold x amount of non football events at this ground. These are concerts as they bring in far more cash.

Re: The Magic Weekend 2010 : Sun May 02, 2010 11:42 pm  

Edinburgh hasn't been the success Cardiff was......time to move it to another city...How about Paris? or London? or even back to welsh wales even.....

Wembley for the Magic weekend but use Spring Bank instead, makes it more viable for full family weekends for those who don't watch the games to visit the London sites.

Then Murrayfield for the Challange Cup Final!!!

The agreement the RFL has with Wembley is 1 major event per year minimum so it's not as if the dwindling interest in the CC would be a problem.
