Kiiillllleerrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!

[CHAPEL END CHARLIE]

Micheal Svennson is quite literally in a different class to most of the players in this division . Our survival prospects this season may well depend on 'killer' staying fit - that should be a matter of some concern for any Saints fan .

[LaptopSaint]

And even if he does stay fit it worries me that he'll probably not be able to play midweek games. Hard to go on a decent run if your best player keeps having to sit one out.

 

Whatever -- best of luck Michael. You've earned every minute of it.

killllerrrrrrrrrrrr

 

also, good write up

At last someone in the "big wide world" acknowledging something we all know as true!!

[Wes Tender]

Michael Svensson is indeed a remarkable individual with an incredible personality, full of self-belief and determination. He is a shining example of the best sort of professional to all the youngsters who are playing around him. If he can remain fit, then he will be a very valuable asset to the team and will be one of the major factors towards whether we succeed or fail.

 

But there is the nub of the matter. We have signed him on a pay per play contract purely becuse the odds against him continuing to play are in the balance. As the article says, he has been back before and lasted 7 matches. If his knee problems have been solved and will stand up to the rigours of a full season at this physical level, then we will all be delighted. But like Killer himself, let's take one match at a time and have our own confidence and sense of good luck increase with every game that he plays.

 

His ability or his attitude and worth is not in doubt.

[BridgnorthSaint]

Whatever he is able to contribute, he'll always have my respect. A true Saint and a remarkable individual. I think that most mortals would have conceeded during those 'dark days'

[WealdSaint]

What a nice change to read a saints article in a major paper that is both correct & well written.

 

Well done killer.

 

The only dark cloud is that if he stays fit, how long will he stay with us? Particularly as WGS knows what a good player a fit Killer is

[TopGun]

Good report. Let's hope Davies gets back soon now to partner Killer. Then to have Perry & Thomas as back ups is a good situation.
