Quote: McClennan "You know, I was just thinking about this the other day. 27-0 no longer carries a stigma for me. Now, it has become a badge of honour for those that were there. I am proud to say that I was stood in the terraces that day. It remains a seminal piece of St Helens folkore. If you were there or watched on the television that day you know how awful an experience that was no matter how much we expected it.
Prior to and on the day i was confident we would give Wigoon a game. It was complete folly I know because we could never match that Wigoon side on that day with the side we have. However, to have that wild-eyed optimism is something that I probably we never experience again. Now, my worst Saints moment is Murrayfield 2002 because there is no merit in being there compared to 27-0. 27-0 is now one of the most unique Saints' viewing experiences because it will never be matched. Beating Leeds in this year's Grand Final or butt-banging the Pies at Wembley on August Bank Holiday 2010 would be something that could and probably will be bettered. Losing 27-0 is a moment that connects those that were there in a way that any victory ever could. It's tragic, I know, but it is a [iBand Of Brothers[/i moment which only a certain few, in a generation, will ever share.'"
