you haven't won the league. You've finished the regular season in first position, in readiness for the playoffs, which form part of the Super League competition. In order to 'win the league', you have to reach, and then win, the Grand Final.
Don't you wire fans know anything?
Either way, it's great achievement and well done. The playoff games should throw up plenty classics. Hope you handle them better than you have done in previous seasons, or else you won't be doing yourselves justice.

You're as thick as a dockers butty
WE WON THE LEAGUE
The competition that has just finished, ie LEAGUE Leaders Shield, involved "a league table". At the end of it, Warrington were top, hence "we won the league"
I hope that's not too dificult for your little pie-riddled brain to understand

No - you're the thick one, little faux-cheshire pal o'mine.
It's called the league [size LEADERS'[/size shield. If you had 'won the league' it would be called the "League Winners' Shield", wouldn't it.
Just as winning the grand final makes you 'Super League Champions'. The words 'league' and 'champions' gives you a clue. It couldn't be clearer. Well, for people with a brain, of course.
I hope your players aren't as silly as you, thinking all the work has all been done, meaning they can now just sit back.

| Funny how 1 year ago a number of pies were also saying they had won the league (before the playoffs) and were going on to become SuperLeague champions. Same people as were saying "so what about the CC, dont mean what it used to".
And yes, there were many Wolves supporters saying the "hub cap meant nothing"
Anyways, the BBC back us as according to them Warrington have won the league and now its into the play-offs and the Grand Final to find the SuperLeague champions.

| Next year I reckon we should get enough points to finish in the top 4 then play other U20s for the rest of the season "in readiness for the playoffs"
Just for a laugh.

No, what's strange is that a team as good as yours have only ever won one playoff game. I hope that doesn't happen to you this time, but like I said in my last post - if your players are as blase as your supporters, it might do.

I doubt anyone's saying the hub cap means nothing - I certainly haven't.
Super League consists of a league and playoff format. Coming top of the league does not mean you've won the whole thing, yet many of you (not all) are acting as though you've done it all, now, when in reality, the hard work to become the ACTUAL Super League winners, is only just starting.

| It's weird because I don't think I ever remember a team bragging about winning the league before the play-offs before. Is it because you're not confident about doing the business in the play-offs or what? Because if you were, then surely you'd be happy to wait a few more weeks when nobody can dispute it...

| Maybe its because of where we have come from to do this?
We are happy because we have been to the lowest of lows in the last ten years.
Why am I not shocked that Wigan and Saints fans have a problem with this most?

I've shown my colours from the very beginning, son. What are you trying to suggest? That you can't read, or something?
