www.saintsrlfc.com/news/2370 I know the team is shiyte and I know losing to rivals is terrible and I know the coach is as charismatic as a tax inspector but this is the future. Bigger and better teams rolling up at KR and us having a role to play in helping the Saints raise their game and potentially pull off a shock or two along the way.. Come on you Saints!

Bet you don't get behind wellans but everyone else.

F*** off Potter.

I'm not putting the flags up in protest of your snide comments.

What snide comments? You hear coaches and players telling fans they have a role to play and asking them to get behind the team most weeks.

"Of course it will be tough, but I think the crowd are in for a really good game and we need them to get behind us."

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me, I like the coach/players asking the crowd to crank it up - can make for a great atmosphere.

He is having a sly dig in there. The 'we need them to get behind us' should have a '[for once]' after it, as thats what he is inferring.

But the whole statement for me is a massive white flag. It comes over to me as "I've no clue what I'm doing, we're going to get humiliated".

The players can get the crowd spured on by making the big hits, making great runs. We will kick in when it's needed. I fully hope to be ho on Saturday, giving me reason to lubricate my voice box

Come on you Saints.

That's what you think he is inferring. I've read that sort of comment on the Saints website millions of times to try to sell more tickets and create an atmosphere. If it was anybody else at the club but Potter, nobody would read anything into it.

I don't know why Ski is taking offence anyway - on Redvee he's posted that the fans won't sing for the team on Friday, now he is complaining that the coach is pointing out the importance of doing so. He needs to make his mind up.

i've heard this from every coach we've ever had.

"i urge all the fans to get behind us"
"the supporters can be that extra lift we need"

so on and so on.. don't see how this is any different.. if saints read this i think they'd be laughing at some of our supporters for, 'can't do right for doing wrong'

So Mick is absolutely pooing one about playing Warrington too.

It's nothing you yourself haven't said.

It's been a common complaint that Saints fans no longer sing when the chips are down.

Saints fans no longer do anything but boo and sigh. There is no spirit left at KR for me. We need the extended spell of medocrity we're headed for to realise what we once had, to let us see how good it was. We've been taking it for granted for years now.

Utter bollox is all I can say to that.

People have clearly missed the irony...
