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



Quote: KCtheKing "No, I tell you what was bollox, the stories of the fallings out. When you see the saints players around town after a few drinks when they are likely to open up, ask their opinions on Potter. '"

Right. They're going to be sharing their inner thoughts with fans about their employer on nights out around town!
Yes, they will, they are very accomodating as I know a couple personally.

As for your second paragraph, im asking you to tell me as I cba digging up your previous posts. Or is it because you have realised how much of a kneejerk reaction you gave?

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time - "You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more" Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44308.gif



Quote: Carlos Alberto "Totally agree. The fans who wanted rid of him are pretty clueless.'"



What people forget about Potters first season, he couldn't bring any new players in and had to adapt to the players we already had.

At Catalan he liked having a big rough pack with the likes of mogg and greenshields making stuff happen. At saints he had a small pack, a scrumhalf on his last legs.

It was hard for him to stamp his own mark on saints in the first year but this year it seems he's adapted to our players and the players have adapted to his way of thinking which shows on the pitch.

I'd like to have seen saints under potter next year with perry, LMS and shenton coming in and sia being fit. That's more like the big rough pack he had at Catalan.

If I'm being honest I think potter going is our loss and the bulls gain.

Tough poo. If you want to find out my opinion, go look. If not, then you'll be talking to yourself.

Translation: the fans who wanted rid of Potter just hold a different opinion of him than you do.

Great coach, as proved at Catalan and as proved at Saints given what he's had to work with.

Now if only he wore Ray Bans, punched the air and got friendly with the cheerleaders - we could be looking at a living legend.

Sadly, I think he's taken on a poisoned chalice at Bulls.

Quote: SaintsFan "Translation

Not having a dig and not looking for a heated debate( im just back from a 7 day ban) but can i just ask:

Why don't you like/rate potter?

Do you not think he's done well this year with our current injury problems?

Would DA have done a better job?

Do you feel he has done anything good in his 2yrs at saints ?

That's the only game plan he has!

I think he's on a no lose situation at bulls next year. He can't do worse than the two guys they have had in charge this year.

If he gets the bulls into the play offs then nobody at the bulls can moan.

Old team, getting older. And, from an outsider's perspective, something seems to be just 'wrong' within the club.

If they do make the play-offs, then I'd say that once again Potter will have proven his credentials as a quality coach. I think it's too big an ask, though.

I'd put money on them making the eight next year.

They have signed a few ok players that will improve them a great deal next year. Also orford will be fit which is massive for them.

Bryn and elima will improve there pack.

I will repeat, since you have just returned from holiday ( icon_wink.gif ): if you want to know what I think of Potter then you'll have to go searching. I really cannot be bothered repeating what I have said before in different discussions and I do not want the usual tirade of insults for expressing an opinion which doesn't go down well with some on here. I'm sure if you think about then you will remember the points I've put forward before now. You've disagreed with them often enough!

I have only disagreed on the fact you don't think he's done a very good job at saints.

I don't know all your opinions on why.
