Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



I'm not surprised he's staying on. It's the way of Saints.

Friday 28th March, 2014, a day that will live in infamy... [quote="Saddened!":fwnfr3rg]Whatever happens they have all been magnificent. Even Wello.[/quote:fwnfr3rg] [quote="Saddened!":fwnfr3rg]Lance Hohaia can have my babies after that show[/quote:fwnfr3rg] #theworldturnedupsidedown:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_61326.jpg



I have no problem with Wello staying for another year...after all, 50% of his salary is exempt from cap since his testimonial and has a lot of experience to help the younger players coming through. Would also imagine, as per Cunningham, he will be signing for less money making him a decent & cheap-ish option as a squad player.

My problem will be if NB continues to move players around to accommodate him in the 13. With Lomax being lined up to play full back, Brown must realise Wello is a full back and if J-Lo is playing there Wello doesnt play! Simples!

We need to sign another half back to play alongside Walsh (as Hohaia clearly isnt in NB's plans and Wheeler manages 1 game every 3 months) and Wello is not the answer to this. Could prove a good signing (used as cover and even play him at full back in lesser games moving Lomax into the halves) but anything more than this isn't what we need going forward

I don't mind him staying, as long he's there to help along the younger players and fill in when needed. I hope he isn't going to be first choice and a guaranteed starter.

The problem is, he's not just helping our youngsters, he's standing in their way when everyone (well, at least us armchair experts) want the likes of Swift, Yates and Charnock to be broken in.

This. I can't wait until the club announce the Laffranchi and Wellens deals. They are going to get roasted on Twitter and Facebook. I just cannot understand why the club and Wello himself would even consider extending the misery like this. Anyone who looks at his performances will see he's not good to play in the team. If he's not good enough, why sign him up again? Wello himself has got to look at his performance levels and be a bit more honest with himself. He's at least 2 years beyond his best and should recognise that and step down.

The club is a joke.

I want the young lads in as much as everyone else, I mean helping and developing behind the scenes. Can't see Brown not playing him though.

This is the problem. He is obviously very highly valued for his leadership and for the example he sets to the other players in terms of professionalism and competitiveness, and with that in mind I can understand why he is still wanted at the club. But you just know that Brown will be bending over backwards to fit him in the team somewhere, whether his on-field performance merits it or not.

If that's the case, surely there is a academy coaching job there for him?

Now that you think the club is a joke, I assume that you will no longer be supporting it. That would be a real shame because I actually quite enjoy reading your posts on here. It's been very entertaining. But, I suppose everything has to come to an end at some point. icon_lol.gif

All the best!!!

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg
