I agree, he's failed to impress whenever I've seen him.

I don't know what you mean?
Ashe is a young player...he's 21 and has only played a handful of first team games.
I didn't say he was good enough. If you look back to my comments after the London game I said he wasn't good enough after that showing.
Sorry if I've misunderstood your point...?

| Quote: Snake Plisskin "What exactly have we done better in a tenth of the time you ask? Well, given our injury ravaged team full of kids just beat your injury ravaged team full of kids, id say we may well have done a bit better recruiting strength in depth and developing youth, the latter of which was done in the championship I might add. I believe that's the point I clearly made originally. Id tell you to stop acting like spoilt children but it would only get a hilariously childish response anyway.'"
Don,t know how you can make this judgement based on one game and hyping it up on good youth development.
Over these last 2 seasons within success of entering superleague Widnes have been tonked at every age level including the first team losing consistenly by 50, 60 and 70 points. Massive beatings by Leeds, Warrington, Wigan and Saints again at every level.
I think you are getting carried away and getting a distorted point of view. Widnes same game last year was rubbish and got tonked by 62 points, Saints this year was rubbish and got tonked by 7 points, Similarly Widnes were rubbish against Wigan and got toked by 60 points, Wigan was rubbish and got tonked by Widnes by 2 points, similar scenarios with Warrington, Huddersfield and Leeds.
Widnes fully deserved there win on Friday night and no saints fan would say otherwise, we had a similar reaction from the wire fans when they got there first win after all those years, so we assume your reaction to the win is a similar distorted one.

| did anyone have a look in the bookies at the odds for this game against widnes. Widnes were 13/2 to beat us off scratch bet some money was made there. They also got 20points start for odds 11/10.

| When is James Roby back? He seems to have been injured for ages & normally he hardly ever misses.

I must admit this was on my mind.
But its really not like James to miss many games in a season.

Last I heard he is due back mid June.
He had to have an operation on his ankle.

I'm glad I couldn't make it tonight as I'd have been cheesed off at wasting the petrol. I'm actually gutted I have a season ticket'"
I suspect that you will regret calling Widnes "crap" before too long!!! They are a much better side than you give them credit for.
Don't forget that they had 6 players missing and still STUFFED YOU.

The fact that your team plays crap doesn't mean that you have to write it - which you have been on this thread..
