Approach to Magic Weekend : Wed May 27, 2015 10:25 am  
Are we likely to see an improvement in Saints' attitude towards the concept this year? In previous seasons we've had a stream of contempt towards the concept and more often than not one of the worst performances of the season in it. We've been humiliated so many times at Magic that I've only bothered going once.

Another hammering on the way? Or will the new management improve on previous showings?

The attitude comes right from the very top. Big Mc hates it. I think this attitude then penetrates all the lower levels at the club.

I expect a better showing this time. Wire didn't look that good against Salford last week.

You were below par against Hull so anything can happen.

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.
Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.

I remember KC said quite a few years back that he didn,t like it because there was not really the chance to do a pre game build up and sometimes they go into the game half cooked.

Re: Approach to Magic Weekend : Wed May 27, 2015 8:17 pm  
Our attitude in recent years has been awful at Magic. Our players dislike the event, so show their displeasure by not bothering putting in any effort. For that reason, I wouldn't be surprised if we get another hammering again and the players essentially sticking 2 fingers up at the fans. For the last 2 years they have been ignorant of the money spent that so many of us put in following the club. I can accept losing, but last year at Magic was hard to accept due to the total lack of effort.

Hopefully Wello's kick up the booty last year may ensure this doesn't happen again

Re: Approach to Magic Weekend : Thu May 28, 2015 5:20 am  
I dont care if the players dont like the event, they are professionals. I (along with thousands of other fans) am spending around £200 just to stay and watch the game(s) and in total by the end of the weekend i doubt i'll see change from £400. Thats alot of my hard earned cash and they can bloody show some effort .

After last years shambles of a performance I think the players owe us with a good performance this year.

My worry is that we're not really playing that well at the moment and Warrington looked pretty good at times against Salford last week. Clark is starting to run more from dummy half and Ratchford is looking good again. If our defence isn't on the money they will rip through us from dummy half. I'm really hoping Percival is fit for this one as we need him.

We've been poor at stopping offloads lately, too, and offloading is something they tend to excel at.

For sale thirty brand new suits, made in 2007 never been worn but rather tear stained.
Apply to Wigan warriors rented accommodation.

2 nil will get you a win
30 nil will get you a win
75 nil is absolute humiliation.
