| Quote: Stu M "Why do you have to be so argumentative? I bet you are a hoot at parties. Wind your neck in.
I'm also the guy that offered to help your lad with his podcast through my contact at Wigan. I posted it on the thread and you blatantly ignored it..
Anyway, suddenly getting a bit vocal? I've made no predictions about the game nor made any arrogant comments. I've simply aired the fact that I'm surprised you haven't sold the away end out.
Yes we don't always sell the away end out at the DW but if we bring 3k in a 5.5k allocation then that's a great effort and would fill the away stand at Saints. I don't recall us bringing less than 3k for a long time even last Sept when we had a lot of injuries and most Saints fans knew you would beat us.'"
You've put tiny little, subtle bits in like us not selling out our "Tiny allocation" & " clearly the rest of our fans don't seem as positive as you Jason, still not sold out a 3k away allocation yet" intimating were not selling out because we don't think we can win
So you didn't just say "A bit surprised you haven't sold out your allocation" you said it with little digs in there.
Plenty times you guys have brought less than 3k pre.covid on non GF games.
That's fine
But not happy when someone has a little one back ?
Just sticking up for my club and fans Stu
As far me "Blatantly ignoring" your post, I didn't
I apologise as I may have been rude not to thank you for your offer but i didn't blatantly ignore it. Thousands of things to do, very busy, didn't respond at the time and slipped my mind
Your offer was very much appreciated and at some point I'm sure I will contact/message to ask if it's possible.
Forgive me as I don't need to "Wind my neck in", just having a bit of a dig back, is that OK?
Or is it like Redvee were only Saints opinions are allowed?

80 plus of us coming on Stormin Norman's Fun Bus
Its going to be packed at the away end, shame they haven't got a bigger Stadium
Then again, they've not sold out the Home end

Do me a favour Stu! Don't make some clear cut "willy measuring" posts and then claim they weren't meant that way! Read your own posts and point out which ones (prior to this) weren't critical or included any understanding whatsoever. There literally are none!
I've noticed a distinct change in the tone of your posts recently, and not for the better. Shame that, but hey ho!

Hi Stu,
Its not willy measuring at all you said,then you go on to say Saints took the most ever fans to Catalan.
Can we not see how many turn up first.
Good luck for tonight may the best team win.
Cant wait.

The 6 of us will try not to obscure your view too much! Maybe we can organise a game of touch rugby in all that space. 4 a side plus 1 to retrieve the ball?

We do this (and more) every season due to the pitch relay, we just don't bang on about it.

Add another 6 over here, bloody hell we might be able to get a full game going ourselves to distract us from Wigan getting nailed on the pitch by the mighty Saints.

A bit optimistic mate. We'd need 26 for that...and that's not including subs!! No chance there'll be that many there! 7s is a possibility though...

I'm not on here to make friends with people, I enjoy reading different opinions and opinions of non-Saints fans. Naturally there are going to be times when I disagree with people.
Your retorts to posts I make aren't exactly cordial and you are now childishly carrying on joking about an empty away end when I've never said that was the case at all.
All we hear is that Wigan are the biggest club in SL. So its hardly outlandish for me to then wonder why they aren't selling out a 3,000 allocation.

It's only a bit of fun Stu, i wouldn't take it so personally.
But you did come on here, after people on here had already expressed their lack of confidence in the game tonight (me included) and came across as attempting to stick the knife in further with your wordings. Even WW69 didn't attempt that, and we expect it from him!

| So the winners of the 2 covid grand finals and the preseason challenge friendly against the panthers reserves have yet to sell out the 15,000 tickets for there home ends on a sunny Friday evening with an fully fit team.
Wigan sold out 20,000 for the Good Friday game.

One hell of a Reserves team they must have. Their side was...
Crichton
May
Tago
Turuva
To'o
Luai
Cleary
Leota
Kenny
Fisher-Harris
Garner
Hosking
Yeo
And as a few of you have reminded me- Good Friday is apparently different. We sold out last Good Friday.

| So that's the WCC and the "Most fans to Catalans" cup already in the cupboard for the mighty Saints.
How will we ever compete with that.
