Agreed, but you do finish 2nd in the league if you use the first half of the season to get most of your wins using a method of tatics inherited from the previous coach. You then start employing your own tactics with very limited success for the second half of the season and manage to hang onto second place.

Hmm. I haven't read the entire thread, but has anyone else mentioned Long last night? Him storming off at the end of the game? From what I saw he didn't come over to the speccies, just headed straight for the dressing room....

Long walked over, aplauded the fans and turned down the tunnel.

Maybe he needed a ?
Maybe he'd took a knock and wanted to ice it?
Maybe he had to be somewhere?

He certainly applauded the fans.

Alright narky.

See my comment regarding the Saints reserves game today.

It is an observation.

Not so. We are losing Longy and Gilly (unless Kieron goes too). But we still have most of our 'top' players in the squad for next season. They just seem to have gone AWOL for reasons completely unknown to us fans.
