To be fair to our Saints friends, for every childish hissy-fit (I include the head coach in that) there has been a very magnanimous response like the one quoted.

Every team including our own has some one eyed supporters, I was the same (aged 13). Every so often a result is so outstanding that it hits even their belief. Saturday was one of those.

Hi All, Cas fan in peace.

Just like to offer belated congratulations on your cup win.

You were excellent on Saturday and totally deserved to win that game. Well done.

Would just like to add too, nice for the Wire support, been getting some bad press just lately but the ones I have come across, wembley, magic etc. have been really good people so am over the moon for you.

He is lurking around the Virtual Terrace, but for some reason, he has avoided posting on here.

Hes banned off here so you wont be seeing him any time soon, he wont apologise and we wouldnt accept it anyway.

By my reckoning, he wont post after the cas game, he will leave it at least 2 weeks before showing his face

Thank you on behalf of all users of this forum.

Cheers

Big thanks

Fantastic! I'll enjoy our forum a lot more now

Shame, I was looking forward to his heartfelt congrats.

I find AS amusing. He has me fooled still because I don't know 100% if he's fishing or for real. More often than not I think he's fishing. I don't bite either way. He merits some comedy value at times...

Opposite to Saddened...at least AS doesn't try to wrap up bitterness and red vee spectacle comments vailed behind a half nice one.
A Pied Piper...but us rats won't follow.

That's because he is on the same level as you.

I’d say you’ve arguably been just as bad as him on other forums in recent weeks mate! Making outlandish comments for the inevitable responses they get? We know you predicted a Wire win but that doesn’t deflect the fact that if I was a fan of the opposition I’d think you were a bit of a b3ll3nd (off the back of your recent form, that’s all!).

Who's form?

Your form - fishing on other forums (amusing as it may be from a wire perspective) is prime bellendery.

That's OK then.

Given the tactics worked and the team bought into it would this be a viable tactic should we get to the gf with Austin starting and Patton on the bench to cover 7/9 it would give us the option to massively change tactics during the game. Or could we see the reverse of it and have him come off for say Bmm for a stint?

Its probably not the type of rugby they we want to see but I think that a low error high completion rate with a dominant pack with the added quality of Austin would see us over the line against the toughest of defences.

I think wilkin summed it up best we bent in defence but did not brake, even whilst saints were making ground I think we had enough to keep em out. Whilst when saints wrre tired and under pressure from us they broke. We got into a defensive zone I've mot seen in a while from us where defence looks as enjoyable to them as going forward.

The no try calls were a joke but its not a given that saints would have gone on to storm to a cricket score as their fans seem to make out could say that linehams would have done the same had that been given.

They faced some adversity in the game and did not cope very well with it. I don't think the Knowles no try had any effect on them the repeated replays did. Not one of his team made a call for a try neither did he, they played on as normal and if anything affected them aside from it clearly not going to ve a walk in the park many expected it was that feeling of pressure on every mistake they made intensifying as it gets closer to the 80min mark. They are professional sportsmen who will have faced what they see as injustices on the pitch in every game the knowls no try was no different.
