It's also the main reason we aren't getting good value from Watts. A big part of his game is his ability to offload and we have nobody even trying to take advantage of it most of the time.
Hold on to me baby, his bony hands will do you no harm It said in the cards, we lost our souls to the Nameless One

As much as I think a lot is Radford fault, I don't believe he is telling them not to back up. Our players just seem a bit dumb.

Earl Crabtree got it right on the Saints/Rovers game although they were un beaten they have not looked world beaters and did not perform well and it took two intercepts and a drop ball to give Rovers a win and no sparkling RL.Who will win? anybody's guess it the derby is the gap between the two huge like many make out ..NO. Whatever the result it wont stop the moaners and it will still leave Radford on the edge.
In that case You had better hope they continue to perform under par for your sake on Monday. You commented on the fact that it took two intercepts from Rovers and a drop goal, well that's all part of the game and two aspects that take a degree of skill and awareness. You also forgot to mention that, had it not been for two obvious St Helens forward passes the score would not have looked so respectable as it did for saints. With regards to tomorrows game, i never dare to make a prediction regardless of form, I've watched the game between these two for so many years and seen the form book turned upside down that many times, that now i believe it just comes down to who wants it more on the day . I'm certainly Looking forward to tomorrows game and expect the atmosphere to be at full volume in front of the sky cameras, let the contest begin.
Hate derby matches and they never go to form. A lot will depend on hulls kicking game, if you can keep us pinned in our own 30 we'll really struggle. If we get equal field position then I fancy our chances

Heart says Fc , head says dobbins (mainly due to injurys) I feel sick with nerves already and it's not even game day !!! Coyh
Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand Workin' in the dark against your fellow man But as sure as God made black and white What's down in the dark will be brought to the light
With 20,000 tickets sold so far it should be a cracking atmosphere, it will certainly be an eye opener for those players who have yet to sample a full bodied derby game with the two points at stake.

9 April 2007, at the KC Stadium. The game was played in front of a sell-out attendance of 23,002 Although its unlikely that a crowd that size will be matched tomorrow night there will probably be a few more tickets sold to take the figure over 20,000 come kick off time.

There was a second KC derby that season, the other game on 2nd September (Sunday lunch) had an attendance of 23,004. I forget the score
No predictions for tomorrow night from me other than I'll be glad when it's over.
