Saint Helens in Semis

In a nice way that is....... :-)

Got my tickets for semi, wooooooohooooooooooo.
I can't wait.
I hope we can kick their @r$e. Hopefully we'll be on top form!

How's the bus coming on, PG?

He should answer this Wed/Thurs matey.

at mo -it aint --flat tyre and gearbox gone !!!






















seriously - be in touch now i`m back!

Right --no more of this dithering about or its off!!!! -- need some who have provisionally said they want to come -to confirm and quick - with 10-00 deposit per person (for coach mainly!!- as they wont leave garage without some committment from me!!)-understandable with price of petrol - and if we cancel last min -- what does he do to pay driver and lose a days business Not rocket science!)

Approx £10-00 each on coach (not more ) but as I stated previously --it depends on CONFIRMED numbers / size of bus booked etc (the old chicken and egg syndrome and whilst I posted this yonks ago -- there are interested parties who dont take it any further

If the deposit is more than I finally get coach fare down to (and it will be negotiated fully believe me !) the extra will be offset against "brunch" which mein host as "frozen" at £7-00 - same as Warrington semi last time !!

So total max --£17-00 travel and brunch - leave St Georges at 10-30 am
Brunch and coke --about 11-45 am

On to match to arrive about 1 hour/ 45 mins before kick off!

Get in touch and confirm --and we can then make arrangements re the painful process of getting some cash to me !!
AAAAAAgh you say!

But after all --with Wembley beckoning --its GOTTA be worth it!!

Cheers
PG


Now sorted --trip FULL!!
Thanks to all who`ve supported it!! (1st option for Wembley fun-run!!)

So ---So When /not if we get o final whos for the day trip to watch the lads ???

Like last time --down early - in time for some lunch near London as theres nowt near Wembley

Celebration meal on way back --and late drop back in town !!

Whos up for it --as numbers dictate size of bus --dictate price and I need to know DEFINITES asap

Please no ditherers like for semi --its a bloody nightmare !!

Now I could do with a bigger bus --but aint doing --Sorry to those whove finally decided its a better deal wi breakfast thrown in than train !!--TOO LATE! it were posted yonks ago and cant mess those who do commit about for the maybe`s

So those who are definite if we get to Wembley--asap please !!
May just do the one bus (depending on demand) and if so 1st come (with deposits) 1st served !
OK???

Pm me if interested so I can get an idea of numbers PLEEEEEEEESE!

Very sporting

No room for sentiment in this game Bo!!

Taken from the BBC:

Double-chasing St Helens have been dealt another injury blow with England prop forward Maurie Fa'asavalu ruled out after suffering a broken arm.
The 29-year-old has undergone surgery after receiving the injury in the second half of Saints' 40-26 win over Warrington on Saturday.
He will miss the rest of the regular season having been sidelined for between 10 and 12 weeks.
Saints are already without Sean Long, Keiron Cunningham and Jason Cayless.
Scrum-half Long has a fractured jaw while Cunningham and Cayless both have knee problems.
Cunningham is expected back later this month while Long and Cayless will hope to return late next month.
Assistant coach Kieron Purtill said: "There were a few bumps and bruises from a tough game but the biggest concern is Maurie.

606: DEBATE
Not looking great for Saints on the injury front
JTH
"He is going to be a big loss to us. We have had a few injuries in the front row - with Gareth Frodsham and Jason Cayless out for a while - and it will mean that Paul Clough will have to step up to prop and Lee Gilmour will get more time in the second row than centres."
Fa'asavalu has appeared in all but one of Saints' 23 league and cup matches this year, each time from the bench.
He will definitely miss next month's Challenge Cup semi-final against Huddersfield and the 29 August final, if Saints get there.

Just another 15 or so St.Helens players to get injured and we can safely say we're going to the final before a ball is even kicked

Due to unforeseen circumstances, there are 4 seats left on bus trip to semi plus breakfast/brunch if required

Anyone interested please get in touch asap and I`ll let you have details

Cheers

Hope Wellens is kicking for them

Hope there's a bloody great wind in our favour to boot!!!

saints suddenly look vulnerable

does anyone seriously believe eastmond has mumps

just getting wrapped in cotton wool before the semi

I hope he has it for 2 months at least!!!

They are dropping like flies at Saints, still I bet one or two make miracle recoveries for the semi final. Fingers crossed we don't suffer the same problems.

Has anyone still to get tickets for this game? Sure I saw on the scoreboard today that prices will go up on the day of the game.

you're right and I think the PA said it could be as much as a fiver

Now looks like Wellens is out too.
