Quote: Legless "Not a word I would use to describe it. In fact, one of the worst games for knock-ons and disrupted play, and the conditions really dictated the game. It was a fairly dull game in all honesty.
However, if Celtic are as competetive and determined in their games then a win won't be far off. But we already know that with, for want of a better word, the 'small' clubs consistency is not a common trait, and they often struggle to back up big performances.
Having said that, this is their first ever year in SL, and to push Saints so close is a massive achievement. It's all a learning curve for the Crusaders this year.'"
It may not have been the most exciting game (although i and many rugby union fans would have enjoyed the defensive nature of it, although just like a really high scoring game, its not what anyone wants to see every game. Variety innit.) but it showed that we have realised the importance of defence, whish was less of an issue in the lower leagues. Also sometimes watching the guys putting their bodies on the line time after time, showing passion and courage beyond the wage and professionalism, sometimes helps to bind the crowd with the club more then even a exciting, high scoring game. A lot of welsh sport is about a sense of being against the odds, rourkes drift sort of mentality. The boys did us a proud and my rugby union mate wanted to come to the next home game but unfortunately some idiot decided that 7pm on sunday against wakefield was a good scheduling move!
