Personally I don’t mind visitors from other clubs but it has to add something, otherwise it just becomes a nonsense

This visitor hopes you do us a favour tomorrow tho come to think of it it will only give us a week extra before we get knocked out
Is that like 'I F*ckin Hate Wigan'? Really things like that are just harmless banter. We are your biggest rivals, that stuff is just par for the course. I genuinely come on here to speak about rugby in the rare times i do post. I speak with other clubs' fans to on RLFans, its only you Cas and Hull KR who have alienated yourelves from it. I get the OP though in regards to the blatant Warrington trolling but that was to be expected. I am sure plenty of Saints fans would have been straight on their board if the result was reversed. Thats just run of the mill stuff. Nothing to get in a twist over. I agree with another poster, i think its good for your board to have passing traffic. Even the ones who say they dont like it must appreciate the views of other fans. Sometimes the clearer perspective is from someone who isnt emotionally involved.
Show me where I say “I hate Wigan” ? Some of my best times at a rugby match have been against Wigan.
Good Friday and Grand Final (excluding 2014, which I missed because my wife booked a holiday on the wrong weekend which nearly ended in divorce!) are the only two games I can guarantee not to miss, regardless. When I start a job, I have it contractually inserted that I do not work Good Friday.....
The guy who HAS got that on his tag line isn’t on Wigan forum posting about Saints, hiding behind “measured responses”
I read lots of rival forums, I NEVER EVER post on them. I have too much respect, but more importantly I’ll always have Saints tinted glasses on and will never be able to be neutral and that will ALWAYS end in getting mobbed and shot down by the greater number.
Although........ I might change that if we win the GF and make 20 bogus profiles on RLfans and $hit all over Warrington’s set.......

This life is more than just a read through.
I meant in terms of forums Belgian. The 'go to' place is Rl Fans generally but the clubs mentioned don't post on there, the easiest place to interact with other fans. This is the only place to get a St Helens perspective but some folk want to just chase anyone out that doesn't wear a red v.
No, i know you don't use that tag line. It was an example of the harmless side of banter. My 'measured responses' aren't that measured at all really. I watch what i type of course within reason as i understand that this is a forum you need to be a member of and is probably 95% St Helens fans. It's not like RL Fans where you can just flick through boards so yes i try not to go OTT. A bit of banter here and there naturally. No point in being sensible every minute of every day. I don't think it's an issue of respect either, i don't even see how that makes sense. If the only Wigan board was our other one i am pretty sure Saints and other teams' fans would be registered on there. You are top of the league, the team to beat and got to the challenge cup final so naturally there is a lot going on at Saints and other fans like talking about these things. I could understand if it was somebody like Dewsbury where nothing of note happens and nobody is really interested.
Personally don’t mind the likes of Rogues who contributes quite a lot and is in the main quite balanced
He probably is very knowledgeable but he's also a patronising sod and I don't see how he can expect an easy ride when he mentions the other lot every 5 minutes. That said, I enjoy the banter and don't want anyone banned, I've had it enough times and probably deserved it most times. There's no point in this type of forum without differing opinions.
When I talk about respect I mean I wouldn’t go on another teams forum and start spouting pro-Saints propaganda to people who wouldn’t want to know about it. I’m happy to read with interest however I think it’s easy to descend into trolling.
Not that I’m accusing you, I have no issue with you being on here but with Rogues, if he thinks we are perennial cheats, thinks our players “soil” their shorts and holds such disdain for us, why does he want to spend time on here (pretending to give a balanced view) if not to be a low-level $hitstirrer......
Each to their own and I repeat if people come on here and have an opinion that’s fine, but to run back to a Wigan forum and call us all a bunch of cheats isn’t really balanced!

From what I can see Rogues and Rubber Duckie are just a bit sad whilst the other one Superblue is a definite window licker. I do think the Leigh and the Cas fan post some good stuff as does Wiganer. To be honest threads like the Swinton one are generic to all RL fans.
RG just lulls people into a false sense of security by posting some good stuff and then dropping several thread wreckers and Pie related crap.
Good for him, in a manner of speaking as lots can see through his game, that he can con so many of you.
A few decent posters from other clubs on here, but the Wire dickheads should be banned en masse.
IMO of course.........
"The great fallacy is that the game is first and last about winning. It is nothing of the kind. The game is about glory, it is about doing things in style and with a flourish, about going out and beating the other lot, not waiting for them to die of boredom." Danny Blanchflower.
Might have been written by a footballer about football - but never a truer word............
I wouldn't say RG cons people I think most see him as a saddo who hopes people will respond to him in a virtual way. He is the modern day version of Jasper Carrots idiot on the bus. I do agree with many that on the board of another club you should show some respect as you would in a bar for instance. Superblue wouldn't dare behave in a verbal context in a bar as he does on here from his/her secure accommodation.
Thanks! Couldn't have done it without your team!
