Seriously, I'd be checking the handicap.
Salford were worse than Quins when I saw them and they can compete on off days. You are due a BIG performance, it happens with every team now and then regardless. It will be Saints' third game in just over a week, seriously, if they give anything daft like 24 points, get your money on it.

It has been "meant" to happen for a while. I reckon you could be about right giving us 24. Wouldn't back it though.

Mate, I'm doing a rain dance and have ordered a plough, if that is what it takes to bring Saints down to our level then so be it.

Sadly summer is predicted to arrive this weekend-Lets hope the Met office have got it wrong!! Having said that watching two games in the cold inclusive of a union game isnt pleasant!

Cheer up...it's starting to get cold here (20 degrees) and there'll be 14,000+ fans to keep you warm if it does turn nippy

At least the sun won't be in anybody's eyes, with our game being an evening kick off.

It’s the evening kick offs that cause the problem, as the sun is lower in the sky and directly opposite the halfway line. I’ve never had a problem at the back of the stand for afternoon kick offs but was caught unawares at the first late kick off last year. Anyway, presumably the entire ground will be open this weekend following the union game so it shouldn’t be impossible to move to one of the other stands. In fact wouldn’t it be a shame if everyone moved to one of the other stands and left the Sky cameras pointing at a completely empty East Stand?
