So winning a cup made it "the year of the wolf" ????
OK. If you're happy with that, then enjoy the mediocrity.
To Wigan, winning the cup is nice.
Actually, it's VERY nice.
But it doesn't mean it's been a successful year.
If we repeated your year, winning the cup but finishing OUTSIDE of the play-off places, I don't think many on here would call that success.
To lift the cup, you only have to win 4 matches.
I'd rather play consistently well enough to finish in the top 2/3 of the league and still have a shot at the cup as a consolation if we don't get 1st or the GF.
Don't get me wrong - I'd love to lift the cup this year, but NOT if it's at the expense of the league, and I CERTAINLY would not trade it for finishing 1-3 in the league.
