indeed, i wonder if said person would be as brave or as willing to make himself known to the club or email the club to apologise to matt king.

| Well the guy has certainly just earned my respect. like it was said above it takes a big man to admit mistakes, Well done Matt King !!
I wonder if those Fans who provoked that reaction with their personal abuse would, even consider apologising..... i very much doubt that

| Spot on, apologising to those who had a right to be offended and not those who didn't.
King has received some torrid abuse from "fans", purely because he's the easiest and closest to target. As I've mentioned previously on here, King received abuse at the Catalans game, despite the fact he had done nothing contributory to the scores conceded.
Bradford fans may be silent
Saints fans may be glory hunting
Hull fans may be abusive towards other fans
But there is no excuse for being abusive to your own players.

He is a poster on this forum. I'm just waiting for him to own up and realise how his public behaviour reflects on his character. Matt King can't hide away from his actions, this guy shouldn't either.

Fair play to him, and should be acknowledged that he has said something, takes a big man to do that and has gone up in my estimation.
Yes I have been critical of him, and still stand by that, but can't knock the guy for having the round ones to say what he did.
IF 'fans' did run to the side of the pitch and verbally abuse him one Sat - the only question I have to ask is WTF are stewards there for - am sure despite the lack of any stewarding where I stand, if I ran to the boards at the HJ and hurled personal abuse at any player - am fairly sure I would be apprehended - quite rightly.

In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

Who was it ?
Fair play to King. I think we all lead our lives by the notion that if you apologise for your actions when you know you have done wrong, then that then becomes the end of the matter.
Move on now. If he sorts his head out, he could still be a very important player for us.

| Well done to Matt for being big enough and honest enough to apologise for his 'gesture' on Saturday.
I just hope that the 'idiot' who did abuse him in such a pathetic and unacceptable way has the good grace to do the same, but as others have said previously I won't hold my breath.
I sincerely hope that the supporters can now get behind him, starting on Sunday, and I honestly believe that we will see him causing the opposition plenty of problems over the coming weeks.
Onwards and upwards now starting with two points on Sunday.
Come on the Wire

| well done Matt for releasing this statement and admitting he was wrong with his actions but as he said you can only take so much. The offending person should be truely ashamed and now he/ she should stand up and be counted by following Matt's lead.
