Thierry Albert Scores the Hat Trick : Sat Jul 25, 2009 7:07 pm  

That's 3 matches the worst ref in any sport anywhere has shut us out of now.

Not saying with a decent ref we'd have beaten Bradford, but we MIGHT have!

That match official
Would be well

To stay away from MY patch of grass in future!

Sorry you lost and by such a margin. But don't give up. You'll get another win before the season's out, I'm sure of that, and next year will be so very much better for you guys.

Cheers Saints fan. I'm not too miserable. Terry Halibuts miserable impression of a ref aside, I know we are not the best in the world (yet) and it was just a bad day at the office.

At the moment victory is not necessary to keep my support. Effort will do.

So long as out shaky "benefactor" keeps his nerve and allows us to keep a club.

Was such a frustrating performance! Hannay had a mare...felt sorry for the lad, with the mistakes he made coming at critical times!

Alibert was just unbelievable though. Some of his decisions, both ways were just nonsense...actual nonsense!

How is your lad who was injured at the reserve game just before half time? Has he recovered ok? Quite a lot of concern amongst everyone at the time

Tom Burnell was released from hospital last night. From what I've heard he should be fine.

He was just as bad for us as he was for you. Lynch's disallowed try should have been his hat-trick and the penalty count was heavily in your favour anyway.

Ewen, quite possibly, but as a Crusaders fan all I saw was when he screwed US over.

He does seem to be pretty much the worst referee I've ever seen at anything though.

Has anyone checked his reffing licene to see if it's actually Rugby League he's qualifed to ref?

I was wondering if it was Aussie Rules or Golf or Croquet or some other over complicated stupid made up game.
