| Quote: moggie "It means a lot to me winning the LLS. I remember watching us at Crown Flatts and we took a right spanking many years ago. I only dreamed of seeing us in the top flight then and could only imagine us winning the league. Now fast forward 25 years and we are 1 win away from finishing top. I've booked a day off work to travel down from Scotland in the hope that we can finally do the unthinkable and lift the LLS at home against Wakey.
It means a great deal to me and there was no way I would miss it for the world. Let all the supporters of the so called big clubs slag it off and say it means nothing but to me and fellow Fartowners it means something. And if/when we win it I'll celebrate like we've won the Grand Final. A Grand Final appearance might be on the horizon in the not too distant future too going off the team we've now assembled, so fingers crossed we might come accustomed to winning major trophys on a regular basis.'"
Hope it is a good day for you mate. You are coming a long way, I know as I was up in Dunblane a fortnight a go and it`s a fair long drive.

| I think he meant re-write our clubs own history, as in never having won anything in the SL era, not finishing top of the league for 80 + years etc....

The Communist Cap - dragging down success and aspiration to the levels of those who cba.: |

| Quote: pies-r-us "I don’t think that’s the kind of history rewriting the post meant. That’s just plain lying! Huddersfield has confounded the pundits by not blowing out (well not yet, there’s still the play-offs) in the closing stages of the season, like hopefully we won’t do as well, and they have held it all together. I for one would like the league winners to be called the Champions, and have a guaranteed place in the GF which would put more meaning into the weekly rounds again, but I think I’m just whistling in the dark. Well done Hudds, and good luck for the future.
Agreed.
We might see a very different league table then too.
Then again they would need to ensure the team finishing top was not penalised by sitting around waiting for the other clubs to get to the GF. Maybe compress the playoffs into 2 weeks?
Oh hang on.......Sky..........

| Under the proposed 2x12 then 3x8 system, the top 8 from SL1 would carry forward their points into their play-off competition.

Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white

| 1. If we win, we have won our first major trophy in donkeys years.
2. I've seen us win the NFP GF etc..., but nothing in the top flight, if we win I will remember it forever.
3. We've been written off all season, so if we win answering the critics will make all the more sweet.
Come on Saints, but lets not expect them to help us out, be prepared for the game of our lives against Wakey. Leave no stone unturned in readiness of the biggest game in our clubs modern history.
