Yeah, that's why I quoted ROBINSON and had a dig at Wigan nearly getting relegated icon_stupid.gif

I know you have yourself down as some sort of forum celebrity, but have some perspective.

So, 'almost but not quite', or 'close enough is good enough', is enough for you is it?

How very British of you.

Saints used to be a fantastic side to watch and for a long time played by far some of the best rugby in Super League but its hardly that now. Warrington play attractive ,off the cuff rugby and they should be applauded for this but all this from other fans that Wigan dont, or can't, play open attractive rugby league is absolutely rubbish.

Wrong on both counts, clearly.

You're biased and you're used to losing finals, so I can kind of forgive you for being a numpty.

So saying that I would rather win a game this weekend than lose it is the same as saying getting close is good enough?

Had I said "if we reach the final I don't care if we lose" you might have a point. But I didn't, I said I would rather get to the final and lose than not get there at all. If you think hard enough you'll work out the difference.

In that case, we're on the same page aren't we? Because I'd love you to lose a fifth final in a row, too.

Oh the embarrassment.

Wigan last year.
Warrie this year

Sharing it around is good for the game.

Jamie Jones-Buchanan "I'd never forgive myself if a child of mine was born in Lancashire" And neither would any Lancastrian.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1673.jpg



Never been a fan of the panic style rugby Sts play. They are the main reason we lose all the time to Aussies. England coaches think sts really meant some of the things they do/did, when all the time it was just sheer panic as the Aussies revealed when sts made up most of the GB team. So for that reason alone, I'd never want Sts to reach any final. Same goes for Warrington but down to the fact that they've bought a side rather than develop one like Wigan have. As for Leeds, I reckon Leeds Wigan would make a classic final.
