[i]Challenge Cup

Problem with this is: the 5 games to win the Challenge cup can be Batley, Rochdale, Broncos, Saints, then Featherstone but the 4 to win the GF will only be the top 8 and if you win outside the top 4, it is significantly harder.
Don't get me wrong, the CC final is awesome and am sick as a parrot that we have lost 3 on the trot but it is certainly not harder to win. It is simply a performance on the day...again.

Next time you go and you win,as I am sure you will quite soon,you will change your opinion.Believe me

Another one who is either kidding himself or is just not that passionate. We DID lose the chance of becoming champions on Saturday.

For the first time since the 1950's.

How on earth anyone could possibly say it felt like any other run of the mill defeat I have absolutely no idea. Hull at home in 2005, Huddersfield at home in 2010, Leeds at home in 2011 and last Saturday. My four worst days watching Warrington. Worse than 72-2 at Knowsley Road (I wasn't at 80-0). Worse than the only previous final I'd seen us lose (1995 Regal Trophy - we all expected to get beat really so just enjoyed the day). Worse than wallowing in absolute rubbish in the late 90's and early 00's because we had no real hope or ambition then anyway.

Last Saturday was the hardest of the lot and I will keep feeling kicked where it hurts the most with every single defeat of that type until we finally DO become champions.

Yours,
Absolutely gutted and most definitely not over it

It's taken almost a week but I think I am, just. I actually felt OK about the result Saturday night, just a little disappointed, didn't feel too bad Sunday or Monday (way too busy working to think about it), but I woke up Tuesday morning and it hit me. I may watch the game on TV tonight for the first time, if not then I'll definately be watching it over the weekend. I tried watching it on Wednesday but gave up whilst the opening titles were still playing.

I haven't seen a second of it since I left the ground and I have desire to do so. Rugby can honestly do one 'til February now as far as I'm concerned.

I've taken this quite badly!

Event I felt was a bit underwhelming, but then again we lost!
The Activity/ fan area was sectioned off so I suppose if there was more of it dotted about the ground, would build the event more.

Really felt prematch wasn't up to its potential, again, need more than 6 fireworks (even if they did make e jump a little as didn't see the players start to come out).
