If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.:3676.jpg



Certain people need to realise that: (i) their team winning a match doesn't mean they're a genius, a great player, rugby league savant or any better in any way at all from a supporter of the beaten side. (ii) that picking a team to win a game their own team isn't involved in equally has no bearing on your supposed brilliance or superiority of others. (iii) a club forum is realistically going to have club bias and it is hypocritical to come here wanting to "debate" issues because of this false interpretation of superiority based on something that has no bearing on your own perceived brilliance. (iv) this is the internet and your apparent standing on here and self-worth because of internet posturing is not only an illusion but that any faux pride you derive from it is a reflection of just what a sad person you must be.

Now go and face the wall with your hands on your head!

Well Done to the Giants for your season, at Warrington we know all to well what it is like to win the LLS & then fall at the last hurdle. What you team must do now is learn from this season. I felt that you like us in 2011 needed to win the LLS to be viewed as real contenders.

Your fans were a credit to your club last night & your team were a credit to the fans. Learn from this season lick your wounds & look forward to 2014.

There seems to be a lot of issue-fogging on these forums regarding the LLS. The weight you give it will be a matter of opinion. For me, it's the 3rd trophy, behind the SL Champions' trophy and the Challenge Cup (in that order).

It is, however, still a trophy. There are now 3 teams left in the hunt for what I consider the biggest prize in UK club rugby league. Only one of them can win it. Wigan already have the CC in the cupboard. So a maximum of 2 teams can finish with a better trophy aul than your lot, even with a jaded view of the LLS.

So, in my humble internetty opinion, that amounts to a pretty decent season.

I don't think there was much to be ashamed of in the perfomrance last night. I think Paul Anderson had a fairly clear head on it. You had good go-forward at times, kicked really well, but lost the game in losing the ruck and a loss of discipline. During the 2nd half it looked like it could get pretty bad, but there was plenty of heart displayed to get back into it.

Lots of British players in the team with plenty more years and plenty of improvement left. A young coach who has been really impressive in his debut year as a head coach. I'd say the future is pretty bright.

disappointed yes, gutted? no, not at all, very proud to have just seen the best season a Huddersfield side has enjoyed in my lifetime supporting fartown. on another night we could have won the game, we made a couple of errors at crucial times and it cost us in the end.
unlike previous efforts at warrington, we didn't cave in, our heads didn't drop, we battled to the end, we fought and scrapped until the end and I was very proud last night.
as others have alluded to it took warrington 2/3 years of disappointment to achieve, we are still in a learning curve, we are not the finished article but we are going in the right direction.

as for last night, there wasn't much in it really, we didn't get a single decision go for us and had we got some decisions it could have been different, but we didn't so we wont know, but after watching the game back I have to agree that warrington got every decision go for them.

lets be proud of our team and look forward to next year, I don't think anyone was saying that this time last year.

and finally, good luck to warrington next week, go and win the thing!

Quote: christopher "Finishing top is not the ultimate priority for any SL club, it's nice and all that but utterly meaningless unless you win the GF.

I think you've had a great season but your league position has given you a false sense of how good your team is, Huddersfield are not the best side in the competition they're not far off but they aren't there yet.'"



The Giants will be relegated to 3rd place once the Grand Final is completed.

we are minor premiers/LLS holders/league champions/league leaders/finished top

whatever you want to call it for the 2013 season, that will be part of our history forever now.

the play offs are a different competition eusa_whistle.gif

Although you will be disappointed with your playoff results it is good to see another club that have become genuine contenders for the SL crown. We need more of the so called lesser teams to use what Huddersfield have done as a benchmark for there own clubs.
Although as a Leeds fan these last few years have been great for our club the competition needs more teams challenging for the title. You have shown your not far off.

the play offs are a different competition

As you are now part of the "Top of the Pile" club. Historically:-

From 1998 to 2002 it was called the minor premiers award.
From 2003 to 2013 it is known as the League Leaders Shield.

It was devalued in the 2008 season by mostly the Wigan Fans because St Helens won the LLS for 4 consecutive years 2005-2006-2007-2008.
Suprisingely it got more value when Wigan won the LLS a few seasons later and more recently by Wire Fans.

Reality wise it should be recognised more highly as being the best team over 27 preliminary rounds which is quite an achievement in any sport.

If Warrington win the grand final for the first time get ready for the wire fans to be little your achievement in winning the LLS.

实事求是!:



Quote: Code13 "It is allowed but at least make sure you know who is saying what before you have a pop

And yeah, if we'd have won last night I have no doubt we'd have won the final
Leeds are a team we can beat a will and Wigan don't have the forward dominance of Wire.'"


It's a paradox. If you were good enough to win the final you would have won last night. 'oh but we were played warrington we were good enough we just played the one team who have the indian sign on us'. You lost to wigan in the first game at home, a team that you apparently beat at will. So you point about beating wigan and leeds in the final holds no value when you couldn't even beat wigan at home.

You weren't good enough to be champions, and the LLS means nothing. It's not even listed in honours on the super league website.

Blah blah blah! The effort you go to to belittle our winning the LLS betrays you. It is clear that you are very upset, perhaps even outraged that little Huddersfield won a competition that every Coach, every player and every owner in Super League wanted to win.

Yes given a choice I would prefer to win the GF or the CC, but we did win one of only 3 trophies available to all teams.

that it so upsets the small minded frankly makes it all the more pleasureable so thanks for that! icon_biggrin.gifANCE:

Well, I think we can safely say you've had a better season than we have. One trophy to nil.

I think this season we've done better than Leeds, for sure, but I'm sure a certain someone will get the chamois out and the glitter and do a good bit of turd polishing with some condescending piffle thrown in as to why that isn't the case...
