| Quote: Slippery Steve "As a Saints fan, I have mixed feelings this morning, my head says it's good that we have the opportunity to pick Huddersfield next week. (No disrespect to Huddersfield as they are a good time and if Robinson and Brough play as they did yesterday, they will give us a real run for our money)
However - My heart says it's a pity that one of the Superpowers of modern day RL is now out, imagine the suspense of waiting for the enevitable Club Call later... Which would have set us up for "one final battle royal" at Knowsley Road... That would have been a truly fitting game to end it all with 5000 of your lot in it too.
Warrington have come on leaps and bounds in the last few years and you have a major cup "again" this year, feels strange having to admit that

My thread wasn't a gloating/trolling at your exit from SL attempt either, it was more a 'damn, no last battle at KR' thread.'"
I asked this question to you a while ago and you never replied.
Here goes again.
Why do you live in Warrington and support Saints. If you like Saints so much why don't you move there?

I haved lived in Warrington all my life. I support Saints because my Dad is from St Helens and I went to games with him as a nipper. By the time I realised I lived in Warrington and that they had a team I was already a die hard Saints fan with an Alan Hunte mini kit.

Well I'm younger than Keiron Cunningham for starters.
Last win at KR was in Jan 1994, 21-11 with Mike Gregory, Rob Myler and Lee Penny scoring our tries and Jonathan Davies kicking the goals plus a drop goal.
We were top of the league at the time and had knocked Saints out of the Regal Trophy at KR a few weeks earlier, so winning away at Saints although still a good result, did not have the sense of history it otherwise would if we had known then that would be the last time we ever won at the ground.
Man United were top of the Premiership with Blackburn chasing them. John Smith was leader of the Labour party and miles ahead in the opinion polls so looked like he would be the next Prime Minister. D-REAM were top of the charts with "Things Can Only Get Better". How ironic.

Why on earth would anyone want to do that? I'm a Sintellins girl myself, though I've lived in other places during my time, but at present I work in Warrington. There may be only six miles between the towns but they are worlds apart. I couldn't understand anyone wanting to move from Warrington to St Helens; not anyone with any sense anyway. St Helens is a no-hope town.
Sorry you got booted out btw. I was kind of looking forward to a last clash between us at KR! Mind you, the thought of it was also making me nervous. The hoodoo to be broken at the last ever game there would not have been a Good Thing for us!

well said, this is the opinion of a true rugby league fan, someone who would rather a big challenge and a momentous occasion see the famous old girl say goodbye! well said, if only some of your other supporters spoke as much sense!

I was there we beat Saints 3 times that season..
Like you said earlier in the thread the Knowsley Road hoodoo doesn't exsist..I'm sure some Saints fans think R.L. only started at the launch of Super League...

Monitoring outside for the people inside: |

| These Saints fans are so up themselves. I can remember Wire beating them 3 times a season. Twice at their place, and no I'm not 114, I'm talking about just before Wigan won their last cup.
As for why would anyone move to Sintellins, I know of one reason to move there.
