I heard similar from an ex-saints player....tut tut !

29281_1270406980.jpg When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club.
We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens.
Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

How the Premier League table would look if teams were awarded points for famous fans...
20th: Wigan
The Latics don't have any fans, yet alone any famous ones.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_29281.jpg |

| Quote: ABP' "Some snippets from the book here:
My mate Paul 'Scully' Sculthorpe, Mr Clean of rugby league, wanted to get in on the act. He asked: "Have you got on it yet? Do me a favour, Longy, stick £500 on for me."
I bet Scully chuffed to bits to be named, as they live next door to each other, there maybe some dog cack flying over the garden fence.

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good

| Quote: saints35 bulls0 "Long and Gleeson only "gambled" on a Bulls win by 9 points or more, which was pretty much guaranteed.
Had they gone for a +40 win they would have won insane amounts, which tallies with the amounts I have heard being talked about for other people.'"
What was the saints team that day?

I assume that almost every member of the squad and coaching staff took advantage in some way. And as Long says, i'm sure plenty of people in Bradford took advantage.

And don't forget the blue eyed Sky commentators and back staff too - all of whom would not be tried and had various spread betting accounts brimming full that week.

You can't blame em really, practically zero chance of getting caught in the act and a bit of money on the side.

To a certain extent they can be excused - they didnt pick the team and werent involved in the game in any way whatsoever. They were just acting on a tip off in the same way that most people would.
The players and coaching staff who were involved should have all been sacked instantly.

Agreed in part, but if it had become "public" knowledge, that is beyond the boundaries of this site, at the time, the sometimes patronising comments singling out our sport as moral over [iother sports we could mention[/i (sic) could have well and truly cooked RL's goose!

Supremacy on the spreads (apparently) - ask the rugby trader at Sporting Index for more details

| Excellant book, just finished it, and Wigan nearly signed him instead of Hull, bet they wouldnt have considered it if theyd have read the book first.

It's excellent btw.
Longy was a great RL player (a shadow of himself atm).
Let's not let emotion cloud the facts.
Thick as 2 short planks though.
