Since nobody else is doing it - I'll give Potter some credit. What he's managed to do this year so far despite out injuries borders on miraculous.
As the season goes on, dumping him for Simmons looks more and more like a gamble. Hopefully those who have been so vociferous in their criticism when we've had a bad week will find the time to give credit where it's due, but I won't hold my breath.'"
The "fans" who have bagged Potter this season, simply dont have a clue.

He's certainly done well by us when you consider how different our starting line up looks than the paper one from the beginnning of the year. If you consider the 3 or 4 money balls that Wire put to ground or in touch, it just shows our team works that 1% better, which wins you those tight games. I'm sorry that Potter won't get a chance with the bolstered pack we seem to be assembling for next year.
Take a bow James Roby - this guy is all things to all men. Starting hooker, moves to a running role in the back row and tackles anything that moves. I salute you, sir.
From the youngsters, I thought Ashurst had one of his best games for us and McGennis and Emmitt did themselves justice against the big Wire pack.

I thought Magennis looked like he was struggling at one point, when he very gingerly got up to play the ball. I hope he is ok as he did very well last night.

I saw that an panicked, knowing the knee problems he's had, but he shook it off. Played well, but Potter's still keeping him on low minutes at the moment.

I am one of few fans who have backed potter in his time at saints, he's done a great job with the lightweight squad and injuries, some said we wouldn't make the play offs this year!
We are fighting for 2nd spot and in semi final of CC cup, couldn't ask for much more, only the pies have scored more points than us this year and we've played some good rugby but also some shocking stuff as well!
However, i think potter going at the end of the year is prob for best parties, i just don't think potter fits in and don't think he feels like he fits in.
Lets hope we can send potter away with a cup so he ain't first saints coach never to win anything in super league era, that ain't a record potter deserves IMO

| I don't see why Potters got all this stick (granted I haven't watched every saints game) but the shear amount of injuries, the key personell that have left you before this season, I think you've done exceedingly well to (probably) get second in the table.
The experience that your youngsters have got for next year, coupled with the planned signings, I feel that Potter should have at least got another year to try and see if his work can come to fruition.

We have played some poor rugby at times under potter, last season the was some shockers, but i think he has done a very very good job this year.
I don't think potter would have signed another deal with saints mate and i don't think we would offer him a deal either, i think both parties was happy to cut ties.
He just don't fit in with saints.
Watched the game back on sky last night, potter looked up for it last night, that was one game he defo didn't want to lose.

That's fair enough I suppose, but I just thing you've gone through a massive transitional stage and still managed to stay around the top of the league.
Compare that to us, where we dropped so far down the table we should have been relegated.
Just thought he deserved another year to try and keep the key men fit, even if it didn't go to plan you could then time a new coach to move into your new stadium (not sure on your new guy either, reading the West tigers forums they sound very glad to be rid)
But, i'm not an expert so i'll trust your judgement!

That makes sense. Hopefully he will be ok because it was one hell of an intense match which will have tested his knees to the limit I should think.
