I am made up we are playing Hudds at KR. The team from where it all began. Very fitting and a true Lancashire vs Yorkshire enticer.

Well, I'm not someone complaining about your away support. To me numbers are immaterial. It's whether the match is a good one. If it's a good one then Saints will make a noise and Hudds will make a noise and who gives a fook how many people are actually there? It will sound noisy, and that's the point!

Personally, I've no idea how many Saints fans will turn up on Friday. Some wont be bothered about it being the last ever first team match while others will be in tears all over the place. I'm going just as I always do (barring illness) to support Saints in as vocal a way as possible and in the hope that we beat you and get to Old Trafford. It will be a tough encounter though and I for one am not underestimating you. I just hope we can do a better job of contesting the game than we did at the HJ last summer!

I'd use every snippet available to gain an advantage and get that extra 1%, which might just be the difference needed.

Well it looks like one of your most decorated and influencial players agrees with me Cunningham says: "I think it's a farce and makes a mockery out of the opposition. I know if I was in that situation I'd love to be picked as it gives you incentive." Keiron says You better have a word eh

There were no Warrington fans in our stand last night and it was about half full.
Look at the highlights, thats the biggest away following we've had for a while.
Also the noisiest since the Semi at that ground last year.

There was, as I was there along with quite a few others.
