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

| Quote: GIANT DAZ "Its a trophy for achieving something no other team has that season - never mind the Wigan, Leeds, Wire fans etc saying it doesn't matter and we're only up there cos they 'dont want it'....rubbish we have been the best team all year and in my view they say that as an excuse for their team not being as good as ours ...surely every fan wants to see their team win things, anything ?
I want my team to win trophies, If we win the shield i will remember it for years to come, would you swap that for a 3rd or 4th place finish just to be able to play such and such team in the end of season competition ?
It is a stepping stone to glory, win this and people will start thinking of us as serious challengers in the future now, i would love us to get to Old Trafford and win the Grand final but if we dont i will be more than happy with just winning the shield.....We've plenty of time to crack the big one.'"
I'm not sure any team "doesn't want it". Rather they don't prioritise it and want it at the expense of giving themselves the best chance of progressing in the playoffs.

| 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....

| 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

| 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.
