I don't mind losing in the finals so long as we win our fair share too. By the time of the final it should be a well balanced, even game between 2 teams in form. You won't win all of them. But I don't think we have addressed the reasons why we have lost (6?) finals on the bounce. A mixture of culture and some very ordinary players in key positions.

Yeah, 6.

For me, finals hurt far more than anything else.

How can losing in a final be worse than losing in a semi final?

A semi final defeat is just sickening...a final day out is that win or lose.

For me f we lose the semi against Hull, it won't be as bad as losing to Saints in the final.

Because you're that much closer to glory. And I hate losing, and seeing another team win.



If I had the hypothetical hindsight choice of losing in a semi or a final, I'd choose the semi every time. Less heartbreak.

There is more money in it for the club when we reach finals. Our directors are as keen - or possibly keener, since they've put so much of their own money in - than us average fans to see the Wire win, but the extra prize money from reaching the final isn't half useful.

I honestly cannot fathom that reasoning.

Imagine being a Salford or Wakefield fan without a visit to follow your team to Wembley in generations.



In 2009 I didn't care what the result was...singing 'Abide With Me'...wow.

It was one of the best moments of my life....as it was a generation before in 1990.

I honestly can't fathom yours.



I want Warrington to be winning trophies. I haven't enjoyed a trip to Wembley or Old Trafford in 7 years . . .



It's not the taking part that counts. It's winning.

And you've got to make the final to win the bloody thing!! You'd rather loose in a semi final because you don't think we'd win? What an utterly ridiculous comment.

+1

What reasoning can you not fathom? Posters were saying they'd rather lose in semi-finals. I'm merely adding ANOTHER reason ( on top of wanting to win trophies ) for wanting to reach finals. Don't you think that the money is important?
