| How do you fancy your chances? Most experts are writing Saints off, I am not sure they have got it right.

| The new coaches job is to keep us away from the middle 8s and failing that relegation.
As things stand i think middle 8s are pretty much looking certain.
This is a side whose ability has been coached out of them, and who are low on confidence.

Hardly biased really. He can only say Cas are excellent Saints are very poor.
Who are the entertainers?

| Ish Gods, Saints aren't giving themselves a chance
The only thing that's going to entertain me is if we cut the game and go to a Long vs Orr wild starey eye play off, at least that'll be close

For me, he needs to clear out the so called senior experienced players who are just not good enough. The likes of smith, Douglas, Wilkin, LMS would be the first out the door for me.
Yes we have others that ain't good enough like Lee, Thompson, Richards, Knowles etc but those so called senior players are not showing any leadership at all.
The only final we will plsy in is the million pound game.

| Saints have the players, they just don't have the game.
Generally they have a decent squad, whether the new coach can turn this lot round, I dunno.
Fans seem to be saying they're all tainted with the same brush and only a wholesale clear out will sweep the floor clean, but as a neutral the team appears littered with excellent players, they're just not at the races game time.

Your serious? You think we have the players and decent squad?
The squad is dire. It's been built on negative rugby. 5 drives and a kick is our only game plan until we get 1m off the line are try to barge over.
From this crop of crap we have in the squad we have only percy and Walmsley that are outstanding players. We have few decent players like fages, Roby amor and taia but the rest are rubbish.

Whom do you consider excellent? No decent fullback, halves or hooker. No spine, no team.

Walmsley and Percival are good players not outstanding players.
They are not good enough to start for England. FACT!
At best they are fringe England ham and eggers, as they used to be known.
Lots of Gym bunnies that are billy big biceps and have no rugby brain or pace.

A fair summary, and i don't you are over reacting.
Looks like the whole set up needs a re boot. The new coach would be best getting rid of the old boys brigade on the coaching team and Wilkin needs putting out to pasture just for a start.

I think the old boys brigade is where to start If we have a clear out and starting with the likes of louisi, long, traynor and Gardner .
Player wise we are being let down by so called leadership players. I'm sick of the fakes like LMS and Wilkin pretending they care.

I,m hoping Holbrook takes the captaincy of Wilkin straight away, although Matty Smith is playing rubbish stuff I would give it to him in the hope it might kickstart his season.

That's a novel reason for awarding a player the captaincy.

| The problem with saints fans is how spoilt you've been over the years. So used to watching some of the best players in SL you've become blinkered and had this arrogant mindset of "We're saints, we can always turn it around and snatch a win because that's what we do and that's what we're used too"
Well welcome to the real world.

Wilkin and Sculthorpe were talking the other day about standards, how when they first came to Saints they sar the quality of players we had in the golden years and how they had to raise themselves to get to the high standards set to get into the team. We don't have that at the mo, it will take Holbrook a while to sort out the deadwood and the sick, lame and lazy, and nurture the good players (Big Al, Percy etc) and bring through the youth/academy but he needs to make it clear from the start the high standards needed to be part of this club going forward.

umm......right
I don't expect a reply, in fact I'd recommend not bothering especially if its to negate how well Saints played by booing the Codheads, they didn't play well but then, they weren't really allowed to, ain't nothing wrong with the players at Saints
