He probably thought, this n0b head (Silverwood) is giving us nothing, so any chance he'll get he'll just disallow it straight away, so told him go to the screen.

I love Francis Meli. I'd give him a new contract. Am I the only one?

thats what i thought.

a touch of arrogance, but in a good way! if there is such a thing

almost like, check the screen so 12000 people can see it again. Or had some wire fans gone by then?

Meli finds it hard enough to hold on to the ball. It's tough to believe he has the wetware to score AND [ithink[/i.

it's a wonder the Saints players didn't harrass Silverwood for a decision; they challenged every other decision he made !!

Its the one thing Briers left us with when we sold him on. Its done us well for the last 13 years.

And a contract?

I have been very critical of Meli in the past and do think he is too erratic for us to say the least . Fair play though the last couple of weeks he has looked a far better player so credit where it is due.

I thought he had a great game on Saturday.

Every redvee mon did

he has improved this year - coincidence that his mate Anderson doesnt have him down as the first name of the team sheet regardless of performance?

competition for places sees improvement at all levels.

not sure he has improved enough to earn a new contract as yet.
