There's nothing more disappointing for ordinary people than when Bibilical Easter prophecies don't come true. The full beatification of Saint Kieron can only happen when he masterminds a Good Friday annihilation of Wigan. Now they have to wait at least another year.

Oooooh I love a bit of Bible at Easter

After the CC semi final last year I was walking away from the HJ on the phone to my mate telling him how much we deserved the game and a Saints fan ( A grown woman) Just started shouting and punched me round the back of the head. I have never laughed so much in my entire life.

the behaviour of SOME saints fans yesterday was a disgrace... coming out of the away end with my 12yr old nephew to be greeted by a group of saints fans singing songs about terry newton was shocking.

To put a balanced perspective on things the two Saints fans on the train back to Wigan in our carriage took the banter well considering the carriage comprised mainly Wigan supportes and gave as good as they got in a friendly way. That is as it should be. It was actually quite funny when the Wiganers realised that one of the guys looked like Brett Finch and the other like Bentham. They both took the chanting in good spirit. No animosity, just good old fashioned friendly RL banter. It restored my faith in the majority of RL supporters.

There are idiots from all clubs including Wigan. I witnessed a few taunting Saints supporters outside the ground. Quite unnecessary. Surely the victory itself is enough.

What really shocked me though were the old women outside Tesco giving us the 2 finger salute as we went by. No wonder their kids behave as they do.

Care to explain which bit is invented?

The bit that would be like whenever a missile got lost over Bagdhad it had always somehow managed to hit a nursery school or a children's hospital. The bit that looks good on the propaganda notices.

I'm surprised the ball didn't bounce off the kid, hit a nice old lady in her one good eye, and then smack an innocent guy in the groin the day after he'd a had a vasectomy.

Prehaps people were unlucky yesterday if they copped some abuse...I left just after the full time hooter to walk back to the train station clearly showing my Wigan shirt and nobody said a word to me.

I can't be bothered finding a link to it as I am on my phone at the moment but if you check the Saints official twitter they are asking for the person it hit to contact the club. The stadium is covered with cctv in all stands so I don't think Saints would lie knowing they are there. It's not been made up by bitter fans.

should this thread not just be closed? as this never happend it was just soar saints fans trying to find something to show how evil our club is

That can't be right.

Even if it hit a kid, which I sincerely doubt, it could hardly be intentional.

I can just picture all these little St Helensers running around shouting that Hock threw a ball in a kid's face.

It's just a load of nonsense.

I struggled to believe that was an [iofficial[/i twitter feed.
A Saints bias is only natural - but that reads like the personal account of a stroppy whining teenage fan.

Maybe I just have unrealistic expectations when it comes to professional standards and conduct - but reading that makes me doubt whether Rugby League can ever be anything more than smalltime.
Players posting mindless drivel on personal accounts is one thing, but on a club account; I'd expect more than that.

It has been reported that the RFL are to allow tries given to the value of six points at future Langtree Park matches, penalties and drop goals are also to be banned just in case a ball lands in the home sections.

If that is the official twitter feed, its appalling

The only thing I can see on that Twitter link is the statement: Am I missing something?

[iUnsupervised[/i work experience kid.

Will someone tell me what was put because I think it's been removed.

All still there, just go down to the comments made mid-match regarding the ref, and Wigan players behaviour.

Just read it, it's horrendous. Look at the differences between that official twitter feed and ours. Typical Saints.

Apparently it was the DJ in the Founders Bar who made the unfounded allegation about damage. Well that makes it official then!

I see they have now locked the thread they started on the Stains board. No wonder as this story has become rather embarassing. I bet they haven't deleted all the associated vitriolic bile yet from redpee though.

An apology from Saints would be nice.



All clubs have a few idiots who support them and while we've got fewer than most, I just hope no one sees this as some sort of provocation to do something stupid the next time we're at TP.
