I thought he did very well. Great to see him score and he didn't let anyone down defensively either.

He's on more than £12k

Believe it or not, all 30,000 don't stay in the ground for the whole event.

Correct and I'm told most supporters stayed for mainly one game their own club and watched perhaps half another, when they travelled to Cardiff they made more of a day out of it & many a weekend. The only time the ground seemed alive and at least Half Full! was for the last game Wigan and Leeds?

I got into the ground about 15 minutes into the London Catalan game and watched the rest.

I have to say that if they charged a little bit more sensible prices at the stalls people may be more inclined to stay.

£4.20 for a pint of $hite ale and £2.50 for the smallest tray of chips ever is a a bit OTT. I realise its par for the course in these stadia but your not normally expected to stay for 8 hours.

I did feel I was being ripped off.

We might rely on them to much. but who are you relying on recently? Can't really rely on anyone at saints anymore. I'd rather rely on them and carry on winning matches. And as for not winning grand finals, You're hardly the team to pass comment on that are you?

We've won 4. remind me again how many you've won. Do 1 numpty!

That's what we get when we hire a Premier League football ground I guess. Fans come second best to profit any day.

God it is scary how little some people actually know about the game. The daft Wiganers that red vee allow and one of whom pops up on here now and again(not pies r us) and this guy above. We have done I think it is ten grand finals in about 15 years and about 8 cup finals in the same period. I cant be bothered to be exact because I think it tells you how lucky I feel to have been a Saints fan in the summer era. I even loved it before that without the glory.

I'm quite happy with the pricing if it keeps some of the drunken idiots out of the stadium for longer periods. Some of the stuff on Saturday was ridiculous, from people who had no real intention of watching the rugby - if the beer was cheaper there would have been even more people, and even more wasted.

Sunday was a lot more relaxed on that front I thought.

Yes. We had a lot of very drunk HKR fans around us and then they started fighting - amongst themselves.

-to be fair the poster was replying about the current state of affairs in sl as regarding whats going on at saints and wire at the moment,,and not,unlike some,going on about past glories time to move on i think and face up to whats actually occuring in sl in --2013--

Exactly. I said recently. The comment I replied to mentioned who we rely on. Which though we my do. I'd rather be in our position rather than yours.

I'm well aware of club histories.

Good god we are half way through a season and I decided to broaden it out a bit. If we are outside the top eight for the first time since 1961 at the seasons end it will have been a bad season, up to now it is a challenging period of a season whats going on in 2013 we are only in May

In 1961 we finished in the top four, we lost to Leeds in the top four play off at Headingly then went on to beat Wigan at Wembley the week after.
I'll forgive your mistake, it brought back some good memories
