If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

27588.gif "Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.:27588.gif |

| When we first arrived in the town centre we were greeted by two blokes near the bus station where one goes "Do you know you're in St Helens now lads" in that horrible fake scouse accent and give us the fingers. Lovely set of blokes

| I used to run a main High street store in St Helens centre some years ago and it was a dump then. But then again, many town centres have been trashed by Govt and Councillors building rubbish like shopping centres and bus stations that nobody wants but everybody has to pay for.
I've been to many derby matches home and away since the late 50s and rarely seen any trouble with Saints fans, even in their long side at KR.

4486_1428087820.png 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
Between the wars:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4486.png |

Fair point!

| I live in Haydock and go to St Helens quite a bit, have to agree its rough and getting worse hence the Soliola incident.
I went in there few hours after the game with mates who support Saints, shirts on etc. As i walked in one lad said to me spotting my Wigan shirt, "heres another one", i didnt really take him on. When i was in there another mate came over and told me Wigan fans had been thrown out for fighting? But on here its Saints fans fighting each other? Not sure tbh.

| Quote: Ovavoo "As the moderators say, this isn't a democracy and they can ban you even if they do it just because they've got a sore behind.
I got a warning for saying this "Facts, evidence and most St Helens fans don't really sit together too well. Blissful ignorance and believing Pimblets make good pies is about the norm" on their forum. Think Saint Simon is venting his bitterness.'"
On a warning for mentioning their Trophy Cabinet, oh dear,
Good job didn't mention it FIVE TIMES IN A ROW !

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| I take it none of you bothered to read this......
Quote: Saint Simon "I'm off out now for three derby's and i may (will) have had a few (12 hr bender) when i return, so all abuse in here thanks, usual permanent bans for those who ignore me, this is your warning. Have a great day all, to both sets of fans!'"
So I'm guessing the bans where for ignoring him and posting other than where directed. I on the other hand am just unplesant and silly so I don't tend to get banned.

My post was directly linked to the title of the thread and the OP I have no idea why I'm banned, I've pm'd him asking why am I banned and he's not bothered to reply.

Don't hold your breath... Some of the terms allowed on there as normal currency are terrible.

| I don't know if it happened or not but on the mods forum it was mentioned there was to be a refresh of the Saints mods. If a new lot have taken over don't be surprised if they ignore the rules about warning people first etc.

36121_1270460193.jpg Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te.
Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36121.jpg |

Had a little light shed on this today; an ex-colleague of mine, a Wigan Latics soccer fan, and a group of his friends went to St Helens on Friday (with no intention of going to the match - again, they're not rugby fans), they went to the Sefton, mouthed off and promptly got a kicking and ejected.

| The Sefton is a dump. Does an alright pint of Theakstons Cask for cheap though. Even if I'm the only one ordering it at 2.40 in the morning.

| St helens was a dump 10 years ago, I doubt it's improved much.
On a related note, I'm also banned on the saints forum, was banned months ago, no idea why and certainly no PM. I did PM Saint Simon a while back about it, he replied saying he knew nothing about it and couldn't think why I was; still banned though. Bit tetchy on there.

| We were in the Counting house after the match at about 5:30 . As i walked back from the bar (hands full of pints) a guy with a Saints polo shirt on stopped me and said Wigan scum are not allowed in here. Just replied "nae luck mate but i will pass the message on to the other 300 Wigan fans in here ".
Can i just add , apart from the prat mentioned above all the Saints fans we spoke too or had contact with were spot on .
