Definitely wont be wanting the Shister Yaarkshaar Whinos to win. Dity Leeds, always have been,always will be.
That said, Icannot bring myself toraise a cheer for the Wolfs. 'Tho if you do win I'll be pleased for some of my Wire mates.
Likely to be sat in the Wire end, so will proberly sit with my back to the action for the duration.

Looking through my 100% cherry n white-tinted glasses - I wont be 'cheering' for either side!
The best i can hope for is that both sides knock ten bells out of each other. Will do nicely before the playoff's.
From a pure 'fan of RL' point of view though, i think its a great final - Only possibly bettered by a Wigan v Saints one.
I'm sure both sets of supporters will make a helluva racket. And if both teams turn-up in top form? Should be a great game to watch.
That has to be good for the sport overall.

Just to clarify - I'd rather have multiple root canal treatment, than cheer for either of our 'hated' rivals!!!

Wire.

The majority of Wakey fans in my office are backing Wire.
A few Leeds.

Main thing is I hope its a cracking game and another great advert for RL.

That's a shame 'cos I cheer for Wakey in every final they apear in...

According to Leeds fans our cup final is against you lot every year, does that make you a turncoat?

Exactly. I'll admit now if Wigan or Saints were playing anyone else in a final I'd want their opponent to win. If they were playing each other I'd want them both to get beat! It's just local rivalry and natural in competitive sport so no need for some of the tantrums being thrown.

If Widnes had been more successful in my time watching the Wire then maybe they could be added to the Wigan and Saints equation but as they've spent so much time in the lower leagues, and I miss the derbies, I've got a soft spot for them and want them up. I did enjoy sending them down last time though and my attitude to them may change if I get my wish and then they have a better season than us a la last time they came up - I didn't like them so much then!

Couldnt agree more, like ive said before its just rivalry.

I must admit that I'm the same. Whenever Wigan play Saints I'm usually hoping for some sort of mass brawl - preferably with Graham and Tomkins (Sam, not the gypsy one) punching each other in the face at the EXACT same time, Rocky v Apollo (training session) style and knocking each other out. I'd also want Mike Forshaw to somehow get hit as well. And a haircut.

AS A SAINTS FAN I WILL BE CHEERING FOR WOLVES AND REALLY HOPE YOU SMASH DIRTY LEEDS APART

I'm another proud Yorkshireman and Wakefield fan who'd rather have his scrotum nailed to his forehead than support Leeds.
