GOOD! The guy's a w***er who doesn't want what's best for St Helens RLFC. He should be leaving with Millward ...

but then professional sport isn't a normal walk of life...from what i can gather, if the board were desparate to keep him, it would all have been swept under the carpet, but in this situation it just gave them an easy opportunity to get rid of him. Millward did not help himself in this regard

Hm, Brumby must be happy and Steds equally devastated:

Hull - St Helens 22-0

Just got back from Hull. F***ing disgrace. Spineless. Worst performance by a Saints team I have EVER seen. Only 4 of the team came out with ANY sort of dignity intact at all (Wellens, Albert, Lyon and Higham) the other 13 NEVER deserve to wear the red vee EVER AGAIN. Most of them wouldn't even deserve to play for Clapham girls under-7's yawnion team. The 9 year olds playing at half time could have done better than St Helens. Paul Sculthorpe - Great Britain captain?!?!?! God f***ing help us if he plays like that against the f***ing Aussies! We'd have made more ground if we'd have used plantpots instead of our forwards and 13 f***ing bacon butties could defend better than us. Today has been the biggest waste of £24.50 in history. I'd have seen better rugby had I gave the f***ing snails in the garden a f***ing ball.

Worst performance ever in Super League? I certainly f***ing think so

I'm currently watching the repeat on Sky (not gloating, honestly), but Saints really shoulda been a coupla tires up in the first quarter of an hour. Absolutely murdered Hull in terms of possesion & territory.

Bad day at the footy, steds?

Tell me if I'm wrong, but it's just a feeling I get...

It's never worth going to Hull for anything...

no you'd be better off going to Grimsby, it's just down the coast and has a better selection

well the roughyeds lost 2 and drawn one so far in NL1, out of the challenge cup and northern trains cup and will go bust in 4 weeks probably.

I don't think Ricky's doing too well

Daniel Anderson For Saints

From the Beeb:

Good move? Bad? Indifferent? He was poor enough to get the ar$e from The Warriors.
