| Its a bit quiet on here, i keep popping on here to see if theres any chat about sunday but there isnt any so might as well start my own thread
So what do you think the score will be on Sunday?
Me, i think we will give you a decent game and will run you close, we know you arent at full strength but still probably have that extra smidge of quality still available, the bookies are giving us a 30 point headstart if you fancy a handicap bet which i think is generous considering your injury woes
I will go for Saints 30 Fev 20 (my head) Saints 24 Fev 31 (my heart)
Att 5547
It might be some of you guys/gals first look at us as some of you may not watch the championship on sky on thursday or follow the lower leagues, hopefully we can make a good impression

| I agree with offside monkey, a 20 point difference at full time:
Saints 12 Featherstone 32.
In all seriousness it depends on the teamsheet. If it's worse than last week, which Royston seems to be hinting, we could easily lose. We were thoroughly inept last week no matter how hard they tried and I know Royce was at the Under 18s training making notes this week. I would be worried about this one if we were away in the Yorkshire mud. We'll have no bench again and no halves. Hard to see us scoring a lot unless one of the injured half backs returns.
Crowd: 1,820

| 30 handicap is generous, i expect us to win but not by much. I think 20 is hopeful if im honest too

| Fev are a very disciplined side under Daryl Powell but they also have a few top players missing from their team including Tommy Saxton, Tony Tonks & Andy Kain so I can only see this going one way!
Saints 44 Rovers 18
Respectable

saw featherstone a few times on the thursday night games on sky..good team
with ex saint ian hardman.
i think the trouble is with us lot with all the ups and downs wev'e had this season with no proper home ground..and all the injuries..the eastmond thingymebob etc...i think we are all a bit cheesed off with this season and we cant wait for 2012 to arrive.

I watch the Championship matches on a Thursday and I've seen Featherstone play, which is why I am worried about the match on Sunday. We will have a very high number of u21s in our team due to our ridiculous injury situation, with only one prop and no halfbacks. So I can see us struggling, especially if we choose to defend like we did last week (namely, not really bother much!). So I would imagine the Rovers must have a decent chance of causing an upset this weekend, something I'm sure your coach will have noticed if he watched our match with Hudds on Saturday.
Unfortunately, I don't hold out much hope for a good attendance this week. If we'd been in our own ground then there would have been a decent turnout given Featherstone's standing in the Championship but we are struggling to get anything like decent crowds at Widnes for Superleague games so don't be surprised if there is a very low turnout.
I'll be there though, cheering on whatever version of the Saints turn out and hopefully it will be a good match.

| They say never bet against Saints but I've taken Fev with +30 for this one. I can see us winning but not by 30. Only B365 have prices up at the moment, it'll be interesting what happens to the handicap as the others show their hand.

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| honestly I have no idea. The last round showed that if your team ain't up to scratch then the championship sides can run you close.
We've been decent the last few weeks, but at the weekend the Wheels fell off and it's a matter for Royce whether he can find the wheel nuts in time to get us back on track and ready to roll.

There was just one, but it ran smoothly.

Wouldn't mind betting on this, and I'm on bet365, but I can't see the match listed. Is it still there legman?
