Yesterday I was at a christening in St Helens (more on that in a minute) and at the little soiree afterwards was talking to a bunch of blokes that I sometimes to go the Saints games with (I watched Fridays on t'telly). Consensus was it was a great, hard game - they really enjoyed it and whilst Bailey got their tempers going at the game they accepted he'd actually done nowt wrong.
They were all of the opinion that we (Leeds) had more to offer and weren't over-confident of a victory in the cup game.
The reason I tell you this is because most genuine fans don't post on here. Those that do are probably decent blokes in real life. But give them a key board and access to opposition fans and they're transformed into uber-c
ocks.
Spending yesterday afternoon at the bar with real ST Helens fans talking rugby was a million miles away from my encounters with the t
ossers posting on here Friday night and Saturday.
Anyway, at the christening, in the church there was another family having their little 'un christened. In their congregation they had Mr Stereotype who had come to a christening in a shell suit and Liverpool top (he'd made an effort, it was the home top).
Absolutely genuine. I couldn't believe my eyes.
You should have taken a photo and posted it on here.
