The unfortunate thing about your defeat to the Giants is that you have now been denied that final chance to break the hoodoo and win at Keiron's Castle. I must admit to having mixed feelings. Normally I would have been delighted to see a local rival crash and burn, but somehow I feel sad that we've not had that one last dance together.

You could always come down to Knowsley Road to watch our game next week. Saint for a night and all that, just to say goodbye to the ground.

Hahahahahahaha, you do take the pish sad!!

There's no hoodoo about winning at Saints, we've won there in the past, I can remember going there as a kid and seeing us win. The hoodoo is the HJ stadium, thats where we've never beaten Saints.

In all honestly I think I will actually go!

I must admit I am glad I don't have to go to Dumpsley Road tbh - but I suppose one last showdown would have been good. I remember going to KR and winning when I was a kid a few times. Well I think we won, I could never bloody see a thing so no change there.

Ah well I guess it would have been really cruel to beat Kieron at his last game

id rather win the challenge cup @ wembley than win @ kr . im sure you would to . is that why your called saddened?

i'm going over to support hudds. like i wore a widnes t-shirt in the 1994 final agains't wigan.

I'm up for it, anything for a good game of rugby. I'll go and watch two of the best teams in SL fight it out for a place in the GF because I love the game.

Oh, sorry on second thoughts, I forgot why I watch!!!

Here's the real reason:

My own life is so sad and lonely, so devoid of any sense of achievement and self worth, to the point that the only success it will contain is that achieved by others. When they are successful I will feel on top of the world, and I will let others know how I feel, because now, I am better than them! By an accident of birth I support a better team, and therefore I am better than they are. Even though I never touched the ball, I will mock those that follow the team that were defeated, as though you were defeated by me. I will do this so for one moment in your life you will know how it feels to a be truely sad lonley insignificant human being, as I do when I awake every single day of my sad, lonley, insignificant life.

Sorry, probably the wrong place to post this rant. I was reading through all the crap posted on this forum and snapped on this thread.

I am going to go and watch the semi at KR. Not going to miss the chance to say goodbye to the old girl; Even if she is a rough old bird.

BUMP

I don't know why you are bumping it for that. Winning back to back at Wembley isn't something you can say you've seen your side do that I've not. I've seen Saints win the Challenge Cup 7 times, League/GF 5 times and the WCC twice.

My thread wasn't a gloating/trolling at your exit from SL attempt either, it was more a 'damn, no last battle at KR' thread.

As a Saints fan, I have mixed feelings this morning, my head says it's good that we have the opportunity to pick Huddersfield next week. (No disrespect to Huddersfield as they are a good time and if Robinson and Brough play as they did yesterday, they will give us a real run for our money)

However - My heart says it's a pity that one of the Superpowers of modern day RL is now out, imagine the suspense of waiting for the enevitable Club Call later... Which would have set us up for "one final battle royal" at Knowsley Road... That would have been a truly fitting game to end it all with 5000 of your lot in it too.

Warrington have come on leaps and bounds in the last few years and you have a major cup "again" this year, feels strange having to admit that so come on its not been a bad season.

It was a very poor attempt at a dig.

I understand where saddened is coming from. I think the drama of a will they wont they this afternoon would have been quite exciting. Think the biggest winners last night were wigan, cause they have a better chance of making the GF at leeds than playing saint's. To be honest i can't see beyond saints winning it this year.

It's just hit home that there is no more wire for me until at least boxing day
