I have one, and so do many others that I know. You missed another main difference, when I use mine, I see my team win. :wink:

I still stand by saying that for people to want sell there season tickets after just 2 games and ONE home game is just pathetic.


Totally agree, if they are so fickle why do they buy a season ticket in the first place !!!






Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......

I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

The fans who I fear we going to start losing are the young kids, i.e. the next generation of supporters.

My boy who went non stop for about 3 years, started to lose interest a couple of years ago - the final straw for him was sitting at the JJB in the freezing cold watching us get beat by Hull KR.

He has since attended only a couple of matches and on both occasions the standard of fare on offer and the poor atmophere has not aroused his interest. He is now at the point were he doesn't want to go to matches despite him having a season ticket.

I am not at the point where I think he is lost from the game forever but on the other side the product on the pitch is going to have to improve to get him back any time soon.

A good post. My nephew is 16 and he and his friend said they would not go again, saying it was c***.
We can't get relegated so let's embrace summer rugby and play a more expansive game.

But IMO it's not all about "expansive rugby" It's about making the correct decisions with the ball at the right time in proper field positions, and that is something we've been poor at.

Sometimes five drives and kick are the right options.

I've picked out Goulding on another thread for making three bad decisions with ball in hand on Friday, but if it had been the Wakefield game I could have said the same about George Carmont and probably others.

Gareth Hock does it time and time again. I'm not saying get rid, but they, and many of the others need to know when to pass and when to stick hold.

You may call it expansive rugby I prefer sensible rugby.






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

I think it is a case of when the system we play wins then people dont get so down on it and the team/coach. An example would be Leeds away last April, we played basic disciplined Rugby but got a win in what was a another classic match between us and Leeds.

But when we lose then people pick up on the fact that we have played a less glamorous style of rugby than other teams play.

Personally I would like to see us play a bit more expansive but first and foremost I want to see us play clever by not dropping the ball, choosing good options and not getting pulled all over the place by teams in the 2nd phase. But above all at the moment we need to get a couple of wins then start to think about how we are playing.

As long as we win tomorrow night I am not too concerned if it is ugly, we need a platform to build on from.
