Pretty lousy luck with Gerrard's injury putting him out for 8 weeks.

 

[St Helens RLFC]

Awful first half display and hammer blow losing Gerrard.

Lol, beautiful.........

Sorry to interject, but I'm not going to start a brand new thread for this question: Coca-Cola Championship, League 1, and League 2 -- WTF?

I've obviously been out of it the last year regarding all sports bar Union so I had no idea they revamped the divisions beneath the Premiership. What the dillio? I take it there is still going to be promotion/relegation betwixt all of them?

 

[An Tarbh]

Just seems to be a renaming to try and spark more interest especially with new sponsorship from coca-cola. No change in format though.

 

[St Helens RLFC]

The Championship.

Comedy genius imo.

Have you heard about all the Everton fans getting nose bleeds?

They're too high in the league.

 

[woodie]

Lots of goals this week a 4-0, 4-3, 3-0, 3-2.

V.Happy to see
1) Arsenal lose
2) Scott Parker start for the blues ahead of Makalele
3) Glen Johnson start for Ferreira

things are looking up again.

Nice to see Newcastle on the right side of 4-3 for once, probably have been others but those Liverpool ones just stick in the memory.

They'll stick in my memory I was at both games.......

 

[An Tarbh]

I do remember another 4-3 that went in our favour we beat Leeds at Elland Rd, it was either 2001 or 2002.

Quite how we managed to lose this weekend I'll never know, and quite how Newcastle lost 4-1 is a complete mystery as well.

 

[An Tarbh]

Yeah but we'll probably turn it around next week and beat United.

 

[SaintsFan_Webby]

Good result for City. Arsenal aren't on good form.........what a shame
