You account for a 70 points two week turn around by bringing up games from 12 months ago, sounds about right.


I gather by the way you swerved the question you know the answer. Wigan might have won the challenge cup a record number of times but they sold their soul in doing so and are now reaping what they sowed. May it long continue.

Surely it can only be a player from Catalans. Probably the best RL side I have ever witnessed in this season's comp.

Having to play your home games "away" because you don't have a stadium. Priceless.

You simply don't learn do you? Or maybe it's more accurate to say that you are too simple to learn.

Shall we go over the whole balance sheet/assets/liabilities thing again? Saints' looks ok actually - how's yours?

We can omit the transfer fees to get a true picture unless you'll then concede the point that you are a selling Club in order to include them?

This must be at least the 10th time.

No? Thought not.

Idiot.

And in those 10yrs we've won 2 Grandfinals (come runner up to many times to remember), Been World Champions, Won 3 Challenge cups, 5 League Leaders Shields, BBC Sports Team of the Year and built a state of the art Stadium Called Langtree Park the envy of all Superleague?

Not a bad 10yrs :SUBMISSION:

Not sure I envy your flat pack 18k capacity stadium, SL runner-up medals or league leaders shields. WCC winners maybe. We've spent half of the last decade being so average we almost got relegated, yet still have as many SL trophies as you and only 1 less cup lol.

Don't let that stop you going on about how envious we are of you though. :wink:

Oh dear. This is desperate even by your standards..........

Let's try some questions that as usual you can ignore.

Do you think that having to give away home advantage because your landlord would not let you play affected your chances?

Do you prefer the Lenighan business model perfected at Oxford United to that implemented by the St Helens chairman. That to be precise is to run the club within a tight budget and to sell the asset?

Yes or no to the above will suffice.

Finally how about replacing your reference to events of 25 years ago with something new?

How about "increasingly in their shadow"

Not been a good weekend for you and Rogues?

Don't let the truth get in the way of your bitterness. ..........

It's truly heart breaking that our years of losses led us to sell our stadium to a supermarket, pay rent to a third tier football club and play our home cup games away so our third tier football club landlords can have their pitch patched up.

Hang on a minute . . . . .
