Okay going around in circles here so I'll try and simplify it.

In my opinion I feel that if there were no issues with the stadium selection then we would have played Friday. I could be completetely wrong, I'm giving my opinion.

In my opinion Saints lose out with a perceived reduced crowd on a Saturday compared to Friday. You and others disagree with my points and that's fine. Doesn't make either opinion right or wrong.

Probably answered by my post above. I don't think any brown envelopes have been passed to Sky nor do I think its an anti-Saints tactic.

As I've said in my opinion the stadium issue has led to this and that's not our fault nor any other team that may have finished top.

So basically you're saying a situation that's been in existence for over 20 years and that everyone knows is in existence, so not a surprise to anyone, is a minor inconvenience to Saints?


Bl00dy Hell! I'm not surprised RedVomit is in meltdown!

Some interesting facts from Bilko below

So despite the team finishing top not being guaranteed to play the first SF, in the last 7 years, the team that finished top has played first.

Apart from this year of course.

Interesting....

But, its a conspiracy...

Well 5 not 7, there was no semi finals in 2019 with the top 5 playoffs.

Interesting that the only team to have finished top of the league, had the first semi final and won the grand final in the last 10+ years was Saints in 2014 (and that was only because Ben Flower gave you a helping hand ). So statistically the Wigan / /RFL / Sky conspiracy might actually be in your favour!

Yip
And in other years we've had different play off system and rules
Your point is?

Are you genuinely just trying to wind me up?

I’ve been told to stop moaning because apparently the team finishing top isn’t guaranteed to play first. However since 2015 the stats have shown that apart from 2019, the team that finished top actually did play first.

However this year this is not the case. I honestly can’t think why. Can you?

Coz Saints are boring bas*adds and Sky don’t want people cancelling subscriptions

Step up The Entertainers 2.0

Because there was never a rule, but because SKY had both semis they decided they'd do it this way (unless they didn't like in 2014).
There was Never a Rule

This year, unlike previous years, sky are sharing the rights with CH4 and Sky decide which game they want to show
There again isn't a Rule

So no, I'm not deliberately winding you up, unless you call responding to untruths and opinionated conspiracy theories with Facts as "deliberately winding you up"?

It couldn't literally be simpler

I didn’t once mention rules.

Anyway it’s all a moot point now as the 3 peat Champs will be shown free to air on terrestrial TV. No better way to entice new fans than watching the Champions.

Imploding? Behave

Have you been on red vomit.
You lot are so worried that your time at the top is coming to a finish that you are creating every scenario to explain the reason you could lose a game.

Saints are not as good as they think they are,if you get Salford in the semi you will sh*t yourself.
