Wasn't sure which post to post on but this is the one.

As an FC supporter frankly today I didn't want either side to win but I have to congratulate the Leeds team on their performance after an opening 20 minutes which looked like a walkover.

Unfortunately Brent Webb was a disaster waiting to happen - the guy has just lost it - but I was mightily impressed by the response of the Leeds team, particularly as some of your leaders - notably Sinfield and Peacock - were so poor. For me Ablett and Delaney were outstanding and, like Hull in 1985, you played your part in a great final.

I have too many memories of losing at Wembley but at least your players were a credit to your club and supporters.

Correct mate! Perhaps Sir Kevin could set up as a personal dignity coach for some of our younger talent Take note RFL

As a Warrington supporter I would dispute that statement. Currently we have won more games, scored more points for and had less point scored against us. After next Sunday it may be a different story but till then.............

Firstly, i would like to say that Leeds were very unlucky on saturday and the game could of gone either way. We got lucky a couple of times but thought we very marginally shaved the game tbh. you should all be proud of the massive effort your lads put in.

This however is not the reason for my post. I have read all the accounts of fans having problems with other fans and i wanted to address the issue. I was sat in the wigan end block 130. Behind me was a family of 4 or 5 leeds fans. Amongst them there was a bloke and his wife and their 18 yr old son. What an absolute credit to the leeds club they were. we chatted during the game, and shared the ups and downs of an enthralling match. They stayed until the cup presentation and shook our hands as they left.

This is the memory i will have of the cup final. Well done to them whoever you are, and well done leeds!

As a proud Wire fan for many years and a neutral on Saturday i was embarrased at the performance of Bentham. Unlucky Leeds, nothing went your way from the Merry Warrington whistle blower.

Better thread this. Bad losers and bad winners abound. It was a good match, better than I hoped for if I'm honest, and that is how it should be remembered.

You have also lost more and have fewer competition points, not to mention a home Challenge Cup quarter final defeat (V Wigan) in the only game that really mattered so far this season.

I suppose all those wuppings you've handed to SL rabble clubs do count for something though.

As a Wigan fan I thought Wigan just shaded it but well played by Leeds.

I don't think Leeds got the bounce of ball (or is it bounce of referee). The Mossop forward pass, Charnley incident and poor kick by Jones Bishop could easily have gone better for Leeds, albeit Wigan had a few chances to really pull clear early doors.

It will be interesting how both teams play in their respective games this weekend. that match will have taken a lot out of both sides.

A poor kick? have you mistyped there, interested to know.

It was a poor decision in hindsight, as I think he would have beaten the cover to the corner. But the kick was spot on, it was a combination of superb recovery from Tomkins and the bounce of the ball not going to the left that stopped a certain try.

... and an unfit McGuire who otherwise could have got their a clear first.

Ryan hall mentioned winning with dignity in one of his post match interviews, I've nt doubt he logged on after the CC and read my inspirational words.

On this subject - hat's off to Tony Smith who (as ever) was gracious in defeat on Friday.

I particularly liked his first comment to the BBC [i"You know they're tenacious and they deserved to win on the night"[/i

That one word sums up this team pretty well if you ask me.

LEEDS
Goes down as Leeds post war legendary coaches /managers /etc Ken Dalby/Dai Prosser/Joe Warham/Roy Francis//turner and the geat Syd hynes carried on the legacy of Roy Francis/then came the Tony Smith era we are still seeing that now.I still think of his comments after the 2010 cc final he reffered to us as our opponents,not Leeds.He's LEEDS ,he's leeds and he knows he is he's leeds
