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.

In "O migos" Bar in Lagos, there are a lot of Giants fans, recruted by yours trully, l promised to buy a round if we won the league,

1 l was there in 62, and after the barren years, never thought l would see it again
2, as a proffesional Yorkshireman, l hate buying ale to pore down someone else,s throat, but l will, and gladly
3, a reward for Sir Ken

thank you sir

It matters because it matters - as a Wire fan I wish we could win the hub cap every year. The one and only true sign of the champion team IMO.


WELLL DONE FARTOWN.

I've just read this topic and there's a little tear of happiness running down my cheek, I don't think I could be happier, but I'll tell you what..............It's going to be a bloody long fortnight.

Keefie - maybe you could write your memories of us finishing top in 1932? You must have been at least 20 years old then.


/runs away

The other thirteen didn't do it!!!!

Not rising to the bait..........I'm just too happy

listening to saints/ wakefield game on radio Manchester Ray French commentating had some very nice things to say about Giants and didn't mention our lack of supporters so presume he was genuine in his praise

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.

More fool them.

Wigan have shown that a lack of momentum is a season killer. Both Warrington and Leeds players showed their desire to win over the round, even if their fans do what they can to play it down.

Exactly Wadski - its the fans that are suddenly claiming they aren't interested in it, bet their players dont think that. ATEOTD its because they cant accept that our team have been better than theirs so are all making this excuse up for their team !!!.

I struggle to understand how any fan believes their team goes into a game giving anything less than 100%. It shows a lack of respect of their own players, their team and the game.

Hence I know they're just jealous.

I can categorically say 100% that I am in no way "Jealous" of those who win the LLS.

The acid test will be the playoffs. The reality is that the other 3 out of the top 4 are desperate to play Huddersfield rather than each other.

If Huddersfield can turn up for those games and beat the others out of the top 4 then fair play. If they turn up and get beaten convincingly (as I honestly believe they will) then my suspicions would have been correct.

It's not the "fault" of Huddersfield, Wigan, Wire or Leeds that we have this ridiculous situation. It's a fault of the structure of the RL competition.

We're not talking about the playoffs though - we are talking about the LLS - that's why the subject of the thread is "Three reasons why winning the league matters !!!"
