(around our ears) and come home once again licking our very long open wounds or are we actually going to at long last put this damn hoodoo to bed? Thoughts guys - go with your head not your heart

I believe we can do it this time. Why, because it's got to a point now where they are more worried about losing than we are of losing. This could be our last game at KR and they will be desperate to beat us. If we win they will squirm just like "slugs covered in salt" and it will be agony

Strangely I actually think we'll win at the moment.

Wont win. It's Saints, at Knowsley Road (or anywhere). The usual backdrop of "never have a better chance" has reared it's head again. Does us no favours.

We all know the storyline for tonight. We score first, all go bananas. Saints respond before HT comes and we are leading or narrowly losing but go in to the dressing rooms with real hope.
Second half starts, remains close for 15 minutes before Saints score 3 in 5 minutes and kill the game capitilising on a Wire error.
We score 2 in the last 10 minutes to make it a one score game for the last few minutes before forcing the play from the kick off, lose possession and Saints score to end the game.

We will win.

Lose as per.

You have a great chance. Lomax is looking like he's not going to make it. We'll have some ridiculous and previously untried halfback combination.

We're arguably in as good a position to beat them tonight than ever before!

But I still have this niggling feeling that we'll come up short. I mean, from my point of view, Saints played very average in our last two meetings and still we couldn't get the win.

We have improved tenfold this season, crucially in the mental department. And we need to beat them this time.

I've lost count how many times I've gone to Saints games thinking 'we've really got a chance of beating them this time' with the injuries they've had over the years. And with the Cunningham 'not on my watch' tagline I'll go tonight expecting a narrow defeat again, but in the words of Mr Keegan 'i would LOVE IT if we beat them'

Its saints.

Whilst I want us to win in the worst way, I just can't bring myself to believe it can happen.

If we do win tonight, on the back of the CCF, we'll be unstoppable, however!

Head "Tough game but I hope we beat them"

Heart "Wire by 20"

I think you will finally beat them!

Wire by 14

Wire by 8 and the same margin in a couple of weeks if Saints win through to the penultimate weekend.

You can't win big games missing both halves and both back-up halves.

the fact eastmond and pryce are out gives us a very good chance if we play as well as we can i am sure we will win. ive not been this confident for a saints game in years come on the wire lets delivericon_smile.gif
