At least, that's my observation of sports support anyway. I suppose your closest rivals Salford have the advantage of a coach who has experienced Superleague before (with us) and so he can dip into experience and memories and contacts to enable his team to reach the levels of fitness and such like required in this league. Although I think he was coming in for some serious abuse just before Salford clinched a first win against an established SL side. But I reckon it will be tougher still for Dixon because he hasn't been here before.
But it's good that you are seeing some improvement in your team as time passes. If they can keep going for the full 80 and get their defence sorted (Dixon commented that their defence wasn't yet up to what was needed) then that should be the turning point. As I said earlier, I hope that a win will come soon and perhaps some of those fickle fans will return.
Yeah well said saints fan you talk a lot of sense and you seem genuinely interested in us being successful where most of the people that use this web site are waiting for us to fail.
