Saints still are well placed, just Cunningham hasn't shown a good game plan in his two attempts vs Leeds. Every team has it, we couldn't figure Hudds out for a long time.

To be fair, I don't think it was ever in the Cunningham game plan for the Saints players to apply WD40 to their hands before kick off

After the Cas loss he said we lost the game in the warm up and tonight we started poor. Could it be he's struggling to get his team up for it ?

I'll probably get pilloried and again accused of it being 'personal' with KC (despite not knowing the man from Adam so not sure how that works) but after watching that I hope the penny's beginning to drop with Saints fans.

KC is never ever ever ever ever a coach worthy of this job as amply demonstrated AGAIN this evening (just to remove any suggestion of knee jerk). I said it when he was appointed and the steady degradation of performances has done nothing to change my mind. That's how we perform against the best team in the comp.

This Club needs, and deserves, an experienced and quality coach. He is not one.

And while I am at it what the bloody hell was Percy playing at tonight?

I'm off to bed for a sulk.

Touche Sir.

That defeat has been coming, we have been poor since the Wigan game and were lucky last week.

However, lets not get our knickers in a twist, we dropped a ridiculous amount of ball in that first half and gifted Leeds a lot. They had free reign to throw it around which to a certain degree they do anyway, we just need to book up our ball handling and defence out wide and that game becomes competitive.

On another note, I knew we would miss Tommy but we now realise how important a player he is to us. He offers everything that Dawson doesn't, and would be safe as houses at full back in McDonnell's absence.

Perhaps, the Saints' forwards get a lot of hype on this board but, the 2 occasions they've played Leeds the props in particular have looked powder puff.

When the team has so many dropped balls and missed tackles you don,t really give yourself a chance to play to a game plan, 99% of this loss is down to the players and not KC coaching. The players owe the fans and coach a big one next week.

Looked tired and jaded since the Wigan match

Keep believing that tripe. They owed us one after Cas - do you see things improving?

Belief is admirable.

Myopia is regrettable.
