GF for me. Perhaps even the hub cap first although the least fuss is made about it.

I think ask this just 13/14 years ago, people would have definitely said CC and not thought any different. For me, the CC seems to have taken a backwards step and the GF is the significant trophy. Wire have won the previous 2 CC finals, and yet are still ridiculed for having "no success". The GF, for me, is a bigger occasion and shows the success of a season long performance, as oppose to 5 games, which, unlike this year for Wigan having played Wire, Saints and Leeds, can sometimes be easy, 2nd team games for 2/3 of the 5. The play offs force each team to play at least 1 of the top 4 teams in the campaign to get to Old Trafford.
I'll definitely pick GF without a doubt, I've always thought it would be nice to win the CC but the GF does it for me. Also, a victory over Saints easily beats a victory over Leeds in any situation! icon_biggrin.gif

Grand Final for me specially after seeing the club go through some torrid times eg The 2006 relegation battle.

It's a tricky one, having grown up reading the stories of the amazing cup run, Offiahs try and all that, it felt brilliant for me to finally be able to go to Wembley and witness myself Wigan lift the trophy. To me that was a special moment, and one I won't forget, well, ever.

However, I agree with others who have said that the GF if the bigger trophy. Both offer great significance.


On a different note then, I say we just sit back and enjoy the fact we currently hold both, and let fans of other clubs do the worrying at which one they'd rather win.

If the Challenge Cup was against Stains and the GF against Leeds, I may think differently... its always more sweeter to beat the old enemy.
