Anyone want to hazard a guess at how long into the game on Friday, that Sky turn the sound down on the foul mouthed Scousers?

I'll go for 24 mins.

Sound Engineers must hate going to KR.

I've always clapped the oppositioncoming onto the field, been stretchered off, scoring a good try etc. Not always for scoring a good try though. Thats usually reserved for Wakey, Cas, Salford, Hudds etc

on a slightly different note, one thing that does please me is the Southstand always applaud the opposition academy site(win or lose), I noticed last Friday thet the wigan kids looked a bit baffled by it, I don't get to away matches so is this unsual?

I'm not sure, but I wonder if they did the same thing when the Leeds fans chanted when Tommy Martyn was stretchered off a good few years ago...

Some teams I applaud - Catalans I have no problems with, same with Crusaders (for the moment) etc etc.

But always fun to boo Bradford due to the history between us two clubs - and Saints aren't exactly our favourite team due to the rivalry.

[rant]

But certain players certainly warrant a Boo - like James Graham after his antics towards us Leeds fans at last years CC Semi. I am now always very happy to see him losing/getting smashed after that. Love going to Saints away cos he always stands just infront of us at KO. BOOOOOOO!!!

I can't remember any opposition academy team getting booed from the Southstand (not even Bradford or Saints)

Has it always been like that at St Helens? I heard more We hate Leeds Scum than any other chant tonight - I wasn’t concentrating much on the chanting I will admit but it was noticeable. The cheering when one of our players got knocked out from going in on a bad tackle was disgusting as well.

Probably another poll in the next ten days.

Should we cheer when a player gets legally puts in a good tackle? (Yes IMO)

Should we cheer when a player gets knocked out because he wrongly goes into a tackle and gets knocked out because of it? (I’m really not sure)

Maybe someone can tell me the nature of the way the saints fans cheers our player been down as I’m more than convinced that they cheers because he was injured. Not because it was a good run in by they player resulting in knocking our player out of the way!
