A bit of a discusion kicked off last night and a few supporters argues that the fog didn't help.
If that is so, then why did Hull do ok in it?
People need to think before they speak.

I watched them both too.
I knew it was a bad sign when my team lost the footy.
When they play on the same day (Everton and Saints) it seems like if one wins the other wins.
And when one loses the other loses.
Bad day all round really.
I think they played it for Sky, when did they ever give a toss about the fans.

I was in the pop side and couldn't see much from there. An awful night all round, and a load of injuries to carry over to next week, including Graham, now we're in real trouble.

Is this prior warning if they lose. Excuse was: Loads of injuries, half the team out ...etc, etc?

No.
They're valid reasons.
You missed out the crap coaching though

Is the allegation of crap coaching a deduction or do you have inside knowledge of this?

if i was in charge half of this team would be shifted including the coach there are too many
playing on past reputations ok they are past their best they have been good players but old
players dont fit in with this modern type of rugby.
i feel sorry for all the folk who paid to go in there on saturday they deserve a refund.
another thing i would make a call to meli and tell him not to bother coming back save his self
a journey he did this at the beginning of last season. gripe over.

i hear to-day there is unrest in the dressing room already.

It's my take on what's happening on the field at Saints.
It's boring, it's losing us matches and we haven't got the manpower for the style of play Potter seems to be coaching them towards.
He needs to tell Leon to shape up or ship out.
We can't carry passengers.
I disagree with what Brunty says about Meli in his post.
He played out of his skin when he came back late last year.
Who else do we offload? Cayless, Gilmour and Long have gone. KC in his last season and Wello has perhaps one more after this.
It isn't the players who need to change (with the exception of Pryce) it's the way they play which needs to be looked at.

c-m i agree with your first part of your post re/type of play and coaching and pryce but lets
face it we are struggling already,cunningham should have finished,gardner isnt up to it you say meli
played out of his skin but how many games did he cost us.

He didn't cost us any games but he won us a few.
I don't understand some of the people calling for Flannery to go either.
He's one of our better players at the moment.
I totally disagree about KC and Gardner too.
Wilkin needs to step up a gear and Roby should be at loose. Pryce would be better on the wing than at No. 6.

I don't care where he goes to.
As long as he goes.

And he can take this chap with him.
