| I can't support either although will probably be cheering for Leeds when it does come to it.
That said for the good of the game my head says a Wire win would be best just to try and keep any integrity the sport has left. For a 5th placed team to be called "Champions" two years in a row makes a mockery of the game.
So the Wigan fan in me will be cheering for Leeds but the RL fan in me will be cheering for Wire.

| The system we have now is a joke.
For me it should be top 5.
Finish 1st, straight in final.
2nd vs 5th(Friday)
3rd vs 4th (Friday)
Winner vs winner (Monday)
Play the games Friday and Monday night, this way if you finish first you only have a week off not 2. Also gives an advantage to the team finishing top. Making more teams fighting each week to finish top.

| Top 4 mini league, top 5 system
Week 1
4v5 winner in mini league, loser out of comp.
Week 2
1v4
2v3
Week 3
1v2
3v4
Week 4
1v3
2v4
Final of top 2 team.
Everyone plays each other
a) Coming top guarantees 3 home games
b) Coming second, 2 home games
c) Coming 3rd means you avoid the week 1 playoff game.
4th & 5th would play a knock out playoff and play all their games away from home to win the final.

| Wire, because the only thing more infuriating than Leeds getting to GF from fifth is this absolutely moronic belief some Leeds fans have that they finished fifth on purpose like it was some master plan.
They bitch and moan all season about how they keep losing, then at the end of the season they believe they lost all those matches on purpose as some part of a master plan to peak in the playoffs. Make your minds up please.

![Laughing icon_lol.gif](images/smilies//icon_lol.gif) If any Leeds fan has told you this, chances are they're winding you up.
There seems to be plenty with this view on your board though.

| Can't believe what I am reading.
Let me ask you all this...if the shoe was on the other foot who do you think Warrington supporters would want to win?
Have you all forgot about them turning up in Catalans shirts at the CC semi? The bile spouted all over the Internet by them. The constant droans of "who the f****ng he'll are Wigan" every time we go to the HJ?
I am telling you this, you may all want wire to win now, but once you see Lee Briers fat welsh head lifting the trophy you'll change your mind. We will never hear the last of it. There will be nothing worse than being at the DW and listening to them lot singing "we are the champions"
I can put up with Leeds winning stuff, I'm used to it. Warrington on the other hand......no thanks

Correctamundo mon ami. They were bad enough singing "we are the champions" when they'd won the cup. Imagine what they'll be like when they're actually champions.

I didn't agree with this then yesterday I was in Warrington where I saw a van which had been painted to celebrate getting to the grand final. What song lyrics did it have on the bonnet maybe an anti Leeds song seeing as you know that's who they're playing? Nope it was the one about "who the effing hell are Wigan"
Obsessed much? They're not even playing us and they still have a song about us painted on a van. Idiots.

50086_1357229109.jpg [b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag.
[b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg |

Yet another Wiganer who is all sweetness and light on our board and then behaves like a complete Tomkins on the Wigan board.
Try not to define your life by what other people do - it will only make you sad in the long run.

| I want Wire to win. In fact not just win, I want Wire to put Leeds to the sword. I work with alot of Leeds fans and they are unbearable. Sick to death of hearing about the distinctly average Sinfield, how he is the greatest player ever to play the game. Im sick of the controversy and favourable and timely decisions by referrees and crucial times in games when it onvolves Leeds, Sick of the discliplinary hearings that are Heatherington influenced. Wire might gloat like hell if they win but out of the two teams they deserve it. Wore have actually been a very good side for some time and them winning will restore a little credibility. And finally out of the fans I have had some pleasent experiences with Wire fans, good banter and RL chat over a few pints. My experiences of Leeds fans is the complete opposite. Wire all the way. ![Evil or Very Mad icon_evil.gif](images/smilies//icon_evil.gif)
