I went to the Saints Vs Catalan Play-off semi final (or was it quarter final... ) a few years back and I had the pleasure of stitting amongst the Sin'tellins faithful and my god... I've heard some drivel spouted in the south stand but nothing compared to what I was subjected to in that Poophole of a stadium. Not one person within a 50 seat radius had an effing clue what they were going on about. They reminded me of deluded Liverpool fans in the sense that if its not Liverpool its not worth talking about. Same with them, it was saints or nothing.

Shouting out random things like "come on ref he's just grabbed his arm!" or "These linesmen are useless... The ball only touched the sideline, it hadn't completely bounced out of the pitch" Unbelievable.

Haha, good spot (amended)

I'd have just said...regardless of the club....the town is a shat hole.

I enjoy the rivalry/banter between all three clubs. We just need a stronger Leigh and Widnes to help things along.

Rogues, while you're here..... could you expand on why Chris Bridge should have been sent off please?

Lol

Welcome back MD. Was only thinking about you yesterday too.

I agree apart from Widnes as I'm still not over the CC 1975

that you miss my witty banter and good natured humour?

Yes that was certainly missing.

Glad I'm not the only one, and every year after that as we got knocked out of the Cup my friend's dad would say "oh well there's always next year..."

I genuinely and naively thought it would be a rerun of the previous year particularly when Bevan went over...it turned into the longest of days

I thought there was a rule that we had to win. Didn’t help that as a denizen of N-le-W I had no idea where Widnes was.

Never mind, half of Widnes don't know, either

I remember going on the train to the 1975 final. Direct from Bank Quay to Wembley, silver service meal en route, £10 all in. Good old British Rail.
