So YG,
Are you not struggling ?
Are your (some )players not coming to the end (careers ) ?
Is your discipline that needs to be sorted affecting the team ?
Are some players not as good as in the past ?
Have you some players that are not grub like (Knowles for one )
Your coach (nice bloke)hasnt the skills of say Woolf (not yet anyway)
Which one of these are not true ?
That said once sorted you could become a force again,the table doesnt lie.
I assume you’ve aimed this at me as I “laughed” at your previous post.
Firstly I’ll explain why I did that.
You say we will struggle to win anything this year - we’ve already won the World Club Challenge.
You say as a force we are shot to pieces - yet every bookie and the majority of pundits in the land still has us as favourites to win it.
We were apparently lucky to get to last years final - I assume this is because the semi final was a close contest. I apologise for not winning it in a more comfortable fashion.
So that’s why your post was funny.
Now moving on to your next post:
Are you not struggling ? - I’ve mentioned previously we aren’t at the standards of previous years currently.
Are your (some )players not coming to the end (careers ) ? - Yes. This will be the case at almost every club almost every year. It’s called biology.
Is your discipline that needs to be sorted affecting the team ?
Yes. Very much so.
Are some players not as good as in the past ? Yes. See answer 2.
Have you some players that are not grub like (Knowles for one ) Yes - See answer 3.
Your coach (nice bloke)hasnt the skills of say Woolf (not yet anyway) - We don’t know yet. He’s been in charge for less than half a season which has been far from the ordinary but does have the World Club Challenge under his belt. Not bad for someone who’s just a nice bloke.
That said once sorted you could become a force again,the table doesnt lie. - Spot on. The table doesn’t lie. The same table that will show you that should we win our game in hand (Huddersfield at home so it’s likely) we will be 2 points behind you in 2nd place. Would we then be a “force” again?
It seems that you are prematurely writing us off which is truly bizarre as you’d think people would’ve learned by now. No Saints fan is naive to think we aren’t quite at the races yet but nobody is really panicking yet bar the odd clown.
You seem to be setting yourself and licking your lips at the fact we are “shot to pieces” and no longer a force. Genuinely you’re just setting yourself up for a fall. I seem to recall last season you telling us Wigan would win the double too and look how that turned out. Why any fans of any club boldly write off their rivals like you are doing I will never know. Especially when said rival is still the team to beat in the eyes of most people with half a brain.
