I would like to apologise to the BBC and say we're very, very. very sorry that we won - I beg your pardon that Saints lost, despite Welsby being the nearest thing to the Messiah.
That coverage was truly awful. Fortunately we had Joe Mills and Bilko on commentary and we've just managed to buy two tickets for the 28th.
I have to admit that drink may well be taken later this evening.

I know! What was that about?!! Never seen that before.
Ref let saints get away with second efforts in the tackle a lot of times in that game. And in the last 5mins makinson knocked on and then held back bibby and saints get the heading feed.

This will bitterly upset Saints as this was the match that really mattered to them , we are reaping rewards now from the young players we invested in so lets keep the squad together and go forward ;

Ref gave them everything in that second half. Disgraceful. They were offside the whole game and even moreso when we were on our line on our sets. But no pens against them and 4 sets in a row against us.
Maybe the RFK know it's the only way they could get up the field with their boring rugby TBH.

Except for Bateman. Let's use his money elsewhere.

Unfortunately I completely agree
No idea whats happened to him. Bar one big hit in the second half he just didn't look anything like the player in his first spell at the club and that's been a reoccurring theme over the last couple of seasons.
