Gee thanks a lot St Helens, for nothing. : Tue Jan 12, 2010 5:40 pm  

I was really looking forward to the game against St Helen. They are the team i always shout for when watching SL. Any final i have been to and they are in, i am a Saints fan for the day. Now i find out its a bloody under 20 team they are sending over. Its going to be great going to watch a team full of kids. That's if i bother going at all.

We might get a crap crowd as well.
How many from St Helens will come over to watch a under 20 team?
How many from Keighley will go and watch a under 20 team?

At know time have i seen anything telling us, that this was going to be a under 20 team.

Just a thougt Jim whilst saints may send 20 year olds they will be good 20 year olds. Regardless of who they bring I thought the idea was to support the cougars players.

Is a shame. I guessed as much to be honest because in the league express it was talking to Mike Bennett about his testimonial match. He said he could only play twenty minutes in it as Potter wants to use it as good preparation as they only have one more pre season game against Widnes before the season.

On a personal note, Im totally opposite to GW. I cannot stand Saints, I will cheer for whoever they are playing against. So my opinion towards them doesn't change.

I remember Leeds sending a team of kids not so long ago, and they put about 50 points past the Cougars.

No doubt whoever they send will be a decent side.

This is really poor on Saints behalf though.

How many local people who haven't seen us before are going to come down to see now?

However a Saints side led by the legendary Keiron Cunningham with the likes of Roby and Eastmond in tow would attract people.

Who knows, if we'd have put up a spirited performance against them we might have seen them come back.

Just because i support Keighley, doesn't mean i have to say everything about it is good.
I have never done it before and will not start now.
I have been called a lot of things in my time, but ambassador to the Club is a new one.

Stealth Comic you are spot on and well said.
