Much of this, I agree with. But seriously, don't cancel your season ticket. In the days of Jinkin' Jimmy Fairhurst we all had lots of reason to walk away and never come back. Look what we'd have missed if we had.

I will cancel my season ticket when Hampshire leaves but will just attend the must see Saints Wire and Leeds matches.
I did the same when when we sold John Burke to Workington all those years ago and obviously returned to the fold eventually!
Sometimes a point of principle is more important but even a man of principle like myself eventually yields to the pull of the cherry and whites!
I just don't think we must support the club at all costs like some young easily led puppy. It is total shoite and IL and Co need to know that some of us think like this.
I just get so peeved off with this rough tough forwards backs are soft shoite

. Forwards get you to finals invariably backs win you the finals.
As I said I seek perfection but will gladly accept excellence.

Supporting a club through thick and thin is called being a fan. But each to their own. Coming back when things get good is better than not coming back at all.

Would you have cancelled your season ticket if Sam Tomkins had gone to Wire instead of Wigan? Players come and players go, that's a fact of life. Hampshire has two more years on his contract at Wigan and he has been offered a new contract. That offer has been on the table since early in the year. IL can't hold a gun to his head. I don't want to lose him, but it will be Hampshires decision.

Didn't IA just make a flippant remark to state his annoyance? He's getting hammered over this one!

Hammered? Just looks like people giving their opinions.....

How hard have we tried?
Money is the number one consideration but more playing time is pretty damn close.
What is the point of playing Smith and Williams tonight? Can anyone make even an inkling of a case to justify it? I await the deafening silence.
IL caanot force the lad to sign but his coaching staff are making it almost impossible for Hampshire to sign.
Rouges let's see how good Tomkins is when he has no three quarters to play with. Also if Tomkins had signed for Wire for more money well that's life and you bat on. If we continue to lose backs at the current rate and put up with 2 back rowers playing centre and use Wingers as battering rams then that's another matter. When was the last time our right winger actually received a pass with any resemblance of an opportunity?

Absolutely correct.
I have my views which obviously differ with majority but that doesn't mean I'm wrong or that other people's views are a nonsense. It's just opinions.

I would say that at this stage of the season, keeping a consistent team is vital. Too late to chop and change so as to suit red in the face fans..

Well Hampshire is starting at fullback tonight.

Tautai at loose and Connor Farrell on bench, according to Bilko.

Not too vital then now the actual team has been announced
