Not sure why this is funny though TYG, i think it is a very valid point.
We lose very few games at home under Peet. In fact, looking back we have only lost 2 home games under Peet. The 2022 semi final vs. Leeds & 1 game early last season vs. Catalan.
I would be confident if we are still up there come the second half of the season, when we will play mostly home games. |

I think to suggest that top spot could be a foregone conclusion by June is ridiculous. |

| Quote: NickyKiss "I've never really seen any explanation of why the fixture list has been so ridiculous. Did Wigan and Huddersfield ask for loads of away fixtures due to the shared facilities with football clubs? We usually have plenty of away games in early summer but it isn't the norm for early season. We also have the ridiculous scenario where we'll have played Castleford 4 times come June 14th (I know one was in the cup), yet we still won't have played a single fixture against Hull or Leeds and I know that sort of scenario is being played out across the league.'"
It's so the football clubs can treat the pitch in their off season |

That accounts for late May/June but we’ve been playing away most of the time since Feb, just as Huddersfield have been. It’s why that has been the case that I’m curious about, as well as the crazy situation of playing some clubs 3 times by June and other zero times. You struggle to read that much in to the league table because of it. |

‘Could be’ being the important words. Let’s get to the end of June and have another discussion. It will be interesting to see if the bookies think it is ridiculous. One thing is for sure there aren’t many teams that will finish above Wigan if such a scenario arises. |

We’ll need until July 2034 for that.

I know you like to look on the bright side but no need for mindless optimism!  |

Well this will put an end to the jibes about our pitch. We will have a state of the art PL quality pitch now. Good income stream commercially for the club too. Despite what people may think about women's football it is without doubt a rapidly growing sport.
As a Utd fan though my only concern is a potential revamp of the stadium if they are including Liverpool crests etc all over. This will divide non Liverpool supporting football fans

As long as the income from the women playing there outstrips the loss of income from the sale of potatoes it'll be a winner.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Stu that with the crests will only be temporary for when they're playing surely. If I have to rock up to Saints games and see that e all over the place I won't be happy.

Financially, I think this is a very important step for Saints.

The Man Utd badges are up permanently at Leigh so I'd guess same will be true at the Totally Boss La Stadium
