Unfortunately there does seem to be plenty of evidence that the people running the club don't see winning as the main priority. You see it every now and then.

The cringeworthy social media stunts. Taking the mick out of other clubs on Twitter. Printing "It's Always Our Year" on an OFFICIAL matchday banner.

I remember one of the questions on Roger's fan survey, the one he did at some point after replacing a perfectly good club badge with a crappy new one (because it scared the kids), and before he buggered off early.

"How important to you is winning on match day?"

It may have been worded slightly differently, but I found it quite worrying that the club felt the need to ask.

No mate..every year its the same old same old..Wigan saints or Leeds will lift the big prize..not saying there's owt dodgy just that these clubs no how to win and will bust a gut to win...and it'll be the same next season

Just keep plugging away, and making grand finals. Sooner or later something falls, like with saints and their 5 on the trot. Sport has a habit of rewarding persistence.

Maybe, but I do think we will see the return of Halley's Comet before we see the SL trophy in Warrington ...

Sport, and life, have a habit of rewarding dedication, determination, ruthless single mindedness, desire and ability. Persistence is fine for also rans and learning the harmonica.

You need to recruit Jeremy Keeling on your staff.

When I say persistence it encompasses determination, dedication, desire. Warrington have made 4 grand finals this decade, in terms of contesting grand finals, that more or less stands up with wigan saints and leeds. So over a long period of time the club have been there abouts. You can expect and reasonably hope to win 50% of the grand finals you play in, leeds won 7 out of 7 from 2007-2017 but that is an exception. Warrington have come up short, but that doesn't mean say over the next decade you don't win 3 out 4 and just about hit that 50% mark.

Little tweaks are needed rather than making vague grandeur gestures like revamping the entire culture at the club and doing this and that. You fell off last year due to the CC win, that happens alot to even the most seasoned of title challengers. This year it's hard to judge because of coronavirus, figure out what went wrong this season, tweak it, and make the grand final next year.

You do know, many people are able to see Haley’s Comet twice in a lifetime.

I hope that if winning the GF happens before that comet comes round again, it isn't as underwhelming as the last time it did.

Yes, and probably when we least expect it.

There’s a, significant, number of fans who are in love with the monkey and greet him every year like an old lover.

They think that by cheering a losing team, it proves that they’re a real fan. Expect anything more? You’re not a REAL fan.

I don't even know where to begin with this mental imagery, suffice to say it takes me back to nights out in Blackpool.

Hey, if you’re still thinking about her after all these years, why not give her a call?

Wire would be a good team for Morrissey to support as his whole persona depends on the angst of chasing something which is out of reach.

I'd be fascinated to know the origins of 'it's our year'
Any takers.....?
