I think he's just making the point that many others have made - at times your tactics are 'questionable'. That don't mean that, like all other 'honest' Saints fans that we weren't beaten all hands up tonight. I don't think you'll find him complaining.
I think you will find his players are gonna get it this week though cos I know from one of them directly that there was a 'conversation' after the game.
Well done - no arguments from me.'"
There is an expected bitter tone from Simmons. However I believe he's a good coach. Kept a injury ridden saints in the title race, credit where credits due. |

That is not the real transcript to be fair. He was very dejected in the press conference, but he would be after that. He did mention about us slowing it down but also conceded we did it better than them. He wasn't complaing about us slowing the play down he was more peed off that we did it better than them.

Its only natural.
His "in form" team were blown of the park tonight.
It is only right he should attach himself to some sort of magic gimmick that Wigan use to beat teams.

Dont know where you get "in form" from. We were pretty dreadful against bradford last week, and have not won many league matches in the last couple of months ! |

| How many high shots did Tuson get off Wilkin without a penalty being given?
Also, after re watching the match (several times  ). I notice that 9/10 tackles made upon Graham. He puts his head in the defenders legs and shouts or appeals to the ref for a penalty. If he put as much energy into running as he did shouting he'd be a better player. |

Not putting ourselves down. Just stating quite an obvious fact when you look at our results and performances.
Warrington are a very good team but the question still remains whether they have that killer instinct to grind out results week in and week out. They have had some terrible results at home this season, while at the same time playing some outstanding stuff against the bigger teams.
Much as it pains me to say it, wigan are definitely the benchmark, and if they play to the level they played last night, they are still very much the team to beat this season.

Was only joking mate, I for one, hope you beat Warrington next week, I have respect for St Helens as a club but I think I speak for a lot of Wigan fans when I say there is genuine hatred between us and Wire now. You'll be there at the end of the season when everyone is fit for you, still more to come from Saints this season me thinks and I wont be writing them off just yet. |

Newsnight 13th May 2010: "With the role of Deputy Prime Minister a non-job. Has Nick Clegg gone from King Maker to tea maker????"
I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man
Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew

Apart from people in Warrington, who actually cares about them? They are one of those nothing clubs that every league has, no matter what the sport is |

I've got time for simmons. I thought he would really struggle this year but he's changed the way saints play and made them hard to beat even with lots of kids in the team which is no mean feat. And he seems a decent bloke.
