Don't be so obviously bitter now it seems to be over. Its so undignified. You've had 16 years in superleague to develop your youth and a squad capable of absorbing injuries. We've had two. By far out two best and consistent forwards were missing yesterday, as were the two backs who have scored the majority of our tries this season. We also had a kid on the wing and two guys who hadn't played for three months. Your lack of depth is your own stupid fault. You've had nearly two decades at the top to address it. Strange how we seem to have done a better job in a tenth of that time.'"
You call a last place finish and currently in the bottom four a better job than still the most successful Super League team.
Don't worry we'll come good at the end of the season and make a push for the Grand Final as always and you'll still be in the bottom half of the table and will wet your pants if you scrape into the play offs.
One win in nineteen years doesn't make it a 'better job', maybe it's you that should have a word with yourself and try to keep a cap on your delusions. If you finish above us this year I'll post a video of myself attempting to eat a hat.

Can you be a bit more specific on the "better job in a tenth of that time" quote. Saints have been in the top 4 for 15 out of the 16 superleague years whilst in a tenth of the time Widnes have not crawled out of the bottom 4 yet.
Saints have won 21 awards/trophies in the past 16 seasons whilst Widnes in a tenth of the time have won.... err Zero
Do you live in the wind direction of the ICI chemical plant by any chance.

Let them have their cry mate. I heard you stole their dummy on the way back home. It's bad enough you did that but now they've lost it and they just need to cry, badly, about how crap they are, their ownership is, their coach is, how bad they were, how bad we were, how bad the match was, how bad life is.
Just give them their bloody dummy back will you? It's becoming embarrassing.

What's embarrassing is you coming on here thinking that we are going to say 'oh well played Widnes, let's all talk about Widnes on this Saints forum, they deserve it' after we've come off the back of 5 consecutive defeats against teams that finished below us last season (in Hull KR and your case, embarrassingly lower)
Fair enough if we were playing like Wigan and came up against you lot and you beat us. Coming on here moaning about the coach et al would be embarrassing THEN. But it hasn't, has it?
You need to realise that our priority isn't going to be what Widnes fans think about us atm.

Didn't expect that at all. Show me where any Widnes fan was hunting for such a thing. Admittedly I didn't expect the level of disrespect shown to our team. Don't particularly care either. I've had my fun. What a bunch of babies inhabit this forum.
If you're not after the opinions of other fans, don't come on rlfans. You have redvee for st helens specific chit chat.

You don't care? OK.
Well why have you been hunting on this forum then? It seems to me that you were after a rimming for your marvellous display.

The really sad thing is not only are you a tool but your a mod, a bad one obviously. I suppose your not overly spoiled for choice though over on the smellies board.

| 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.

| Fair play to Widnes the better side won. I do think the travelling support was a touch on the low side, which with your home crowds is perhaps a bit of a downer since you came back up.

- that's ridiculous tbh. You had your two first choice halves and hooker on the pitch. We had frigging Ashe/Turner in the halves and Howarth as ours. That was the difference on Friday night IMO. We weren't clinical; you were.
Friday night does prove that you've done better in a tenth of the time. That's possibly the most ridiculous thing I've seen on here for a good while; that is saying something!

| Sorry Albion I have a problem with one statement Nathan Ashe is not one of the really young players and I thought he was ready to play half back but he is not good enough from what I have seen of him
