I reckon he was turned down to be a Wire mascot when he was a kid and after the "wide to West"(should be called the "Joynt Joynt Joooooynt" try really after Eddie actually creamed himself shouting it!) and he had that commentary put on t-shirts and in books and on the stadium walls at Langtree - there's no way he's not a Saints fan. But he's a Saints fan with a proper downer on Wire, that's for sure!
Although not as big a downer as he has on Catalans. He's sounds absolutely gutted every time he commentates on one of their tries.
