953.jpg 2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg |

| We would have just gone into admin though and SLE would have paid our players while we waited for a buyer....i know its ridiculous to think they would help any club in financial trouble.

| We were there yesterday. I saw one person wearing a Leigh shirt. A chap wearing a "71" replica top and a wide-brimmed hat somewhere near entrance M, but I didn't get chance to speak to him. I doubt if it was on telly, but A J Murphy was interviewed briefly at half time by the MC. When asked about his favourite Wembley moment, he went for 1971, without much hesitation. Couldn't really tell if there was much reaction from Warrington and Leeds fans. "Nice" Leeds fan in our section - mostly family deal ticket holders - chanting "Die, Die" in front of his own kid when they were replaying the Hodgson incident on the video screens. Only topped by Pie fan telling his mother to push our son (age 11) out of the way as we got back on the train. I don't think he was joking. However, 2 out of a possible 70 odd thousand isn't bad going, and I was pleased that, overall, the final is still a good-humoured event - it's the first we've been to since 1999, and we used to go nearly every year before that from the early 80's as we lived in North London. I've been to a few SL Grand Finals, and there has been much more edge to the atmosphere.

Never been to a CC Final (always said I'll wait until Leigh get there!) but you're right about the SL Grand Final - always seem to be groups of blokes out on the lash all day who can't take their ale and end up having a bit of pavement dancing with similar groups. Must say I've always been surprised that they can even get a beer before the game as Sam Platt's, Exchange Bar etc are always mobbed from about 1pm!

| Well I enjoyed the day and the match.
It is a great day out and the vast majority of fans I met were friendly and enjoying the day.
Wembley CC Final is a day when fans of other clubs meet up for a great time' to celebrate the game and have a good moan about the RFL hierarchy.
We bumped into Martin Ridyard and his mates who were on his stag do. Hope they will recover in time for next week.
Was told something which will please most Leythers but not Faxfans - sorry lads
Peawapp you'll get over it. I am sure it's true. Hope so.

| We decided to give Wembley a miss this year, but so as we didn’t miss the tube, the beer and the rugby league, we went on the rlale trailrl stopping off at George Hotel Huddersfield to watch the final.

Well it can't be worse
When Fax's season is over you will see if I am right this time.
I am confident it is true.
Peawapp will get over it I am sure.
