Hull daily mail confirming this story, though could be that theyve just read it on here!

He seems to have had a lot of clubs, and only 3 sub appearances in a struggling Salford side doesnt make it sound great either

The thing that worries me, is where the spark is coming from. When there has been a poor season, we have had the excitement of a new signing to boost fans, and even give the players a lift. But come 1st November and the start of pre season, it will be exactly the same faces as everybody is already here. Only difference it seems is that Horne will be at Doncaster completely and Ellis taking over in the coaching role

Could be a very long season for FC next year, if the article in the LE is correct - no headline signings, only looking to strengthen the squad lower down!

Shouldn't suffer the same injury glut, but the quality, outside of the first 17 is just not there, as promising as the young players may be.

Do we really need headline props signing? 5 drives and a kick and getting smashed by better opposition packs is the norm now and can’t see it changing anytime soon. Even 2 top class halfbacks can’t operate behind a beaten pack. Mavericks like Kelly and Connor may well carry us to some wins next season but has been said elsewhere, opposition teams have sussed us and moving the ball out of the middle.

He played for Wigan reserves on Saturday but didn't impress at all. He doesn't appear to have grown at all since he was 16 or 17 at Saints.






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Its not that opposition coaches and their teams have sussed us,its because the top teams all play a different style of Rugby league to us and Wakefield and Huddersfield are following that pattern.They are using pace in their backlines and movement of the ball to come out of backfield which moves defences around and more importantly takes the pressure off their forwards so they are much more refreshed.
Contrast that with our 5 drives and a kick and thats the problem.
We know our pack ( Taylor excluded) are being run over but our lack of pace is also becoming a concern.
Radford stated last week that they had been working on a different style of play but did you see anything different to previous weeks?
What does it take to tell the first receiver to run the ball,cut out pass along the line before he is tackled to stretch the defence like Saints and Cas do all the time.Just vary the play.
Personally i dont think Radford will see this season out.You can see the pressure he is under.Taking a penalty wide out which Sneyd missed when Wakefield were down to 12 smelled of desperation.
I agree its not all his fault,but not moving our playing style forward in line with other top teams and relying on a power game when we dont have the forwards now to dominate will be his downfall.

Radford sounded clueless on the radio earlier wittering on about needing 4-5 players to give the team a spark..........well errr shouldnt ou be training them to do this then Radders????

Moving the ball wide on tackles 2-4 is a no brainer
My youth team used it as the other team expected it down the middle and we’d make 15 metres easy
I’m just not sure why we don’t do it






I have lost interest
