| No, I'm saying that for all those moaning about how bad we've been in the last three seasons, we've been more consistently successful than some of the sides people on here wax lyrical about, and complain about us being 'miles behind'.
But clearly that didn't get through the lead-lined skull containing your double-digit IQ.

There's no such scoring system in the post I quoted.

| Although we had a decent dig last year the other 2 CC finals we have been second best by far and the score reflected as such.
It's time to freshen things up imo mainly the pack and IF remain as inconsistent next year during the regular SL season then questions need to be asked re-the coaching it may seem harsh but the discipline and consistency have been poor we've been found wanting defensively far too many times and the old guard need moving on OR rotated and used less more often.
Its great to make the CC final but pi'd personally prefer not to get there rather than get there and get hammered no matter what spin some fans or GH put on it we were outclassed.
I also hope GH doesn't go back on his promise of a cull within the 1st team squad but i do disagree with him that the Coaches aren't accountable for some sh## performances this year.

That's why I put "points" in "quotes"

Is that what he/she is saying?
Really, is it? I have absolutely no idea.
It seems to include figures for 2010 and 2011, which is an odd way to evaluate this season. Once the actual numbers started appearing I glazed over.

Fair enough. The OP's argument would have been strengthened had they awarded "points" in the manner you suggested. Unless, that is, they were actually claiming that a final appearance was as important as a victory. Which may be the case, as the final table they posted gives both final victories and defeats identical weighting.

Seriously, when you're using the drumstick to clean out your ears, stop when you feel resistance.

Seriously, when you keep getting the wrong answer for 2+2, run along and play with your other 'special' friends.

So quit whining, and get behind the boys for these next five games.
Beat Huddersfield away
beat Bradford at home
beat Catalans away
Beat Wigan away
Beat St Helens at Old Trafford
and let the classless Pies and Wires know that it is THEY who will be FOREVER IN OUR SHADOW.'"
Remember this post : viewtopic.php?f=17&t=532087&tsmp=1346693873&start=31
Then, and not unreasonably, you had Leeds going out in week two of the play-offs. I'd be interested to hear what now makes you think another Championship is on the cards of even the most optimistic (I'd prefer unrealistic) of Leeds fan?
Just about anything's possible in sport but just as this time last year another GF win remains highly unlikely.

| I still think that's likely. But I'd like to see some encouragement of all the side, rather than moping around claiming they're useless. The only team we've not turned over this season is Saints, so everyone such as the number of knuckledraggers above saying we've no chance, are clearly factually wrong.
I don't think we've a huge chance, but this team has it in them to win the GF again, if the performances are right. And that's what we should be encouraging and concentrating on, rather than claiming anyone who says the last three seasons have been succesful is deluded.
